Terminator 3: Rehash of Terminator 2
Ok, let me just start out by saying that this movie was completely irrelevant. It was unnecessary to begin with, because it was Terminator 2 all over again, except with a terminator who is portrayed to be female. There was no point, all they did was say that Judgment Day is inevitable. Well, if you could keep postponing it, why not keep postponing it? This movie was just annoying and it didn't even seem serious. The T-850 who is sent back to protect John Connor is portrayed to be quite idiotic. It now shows that it has character, without even learning it, and it tries to be funny but fails intuitively. This film was unnecessary and I'm not surprised that it wasn't made by James Cameron.

This is a great movie, and it isn't as vulgar as Terminator 2. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Violence (5/5): There is a TON of extreme violence which is usually bloodless, but you can blow holes out of the bad terminator and that can be rather graphic. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sex (3/5): A woman terminator appears naked. You can almost see her bottom, and you see a brief flash of the top of her breasts (no nipples are seen.) A male terminator walks into a bar and women look down at his private area and caress his back. When the woman terminator is pulled over, she looks over at a sign with a suggestive picture of a woman in lingerie that says "What's sexy?". She then makes her breasts bigger. The police officer notices them when he talks to her. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Language (4/5): There is some very strong language, but a lot less than T2. There's probably only around 3 or 4 F words and some other distasteful language. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Drugs (3/5): A man steals drugs that are intended to neuter a dog from a veterinarian clinic and takes them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bad messages (1/5): They can't save themselves from judgement day, which is reasonable and good to teach people that, but it also makes the movie very grim. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good messages (3/5): The main characters value human life and attempt to save everyone from judgement day. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good role models (1/5): The good terminator doesn't kill anyone. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Overall, the movie was great, but very violent and sad. This movie would most likely disturb children, and is way to violent and vulgar for children as well. Iffy for ages 14-15, off for ages 13 and under.

Incredible but violent
Violence is usually PG-13 level, and not usually with blood. Multiple explosions, the language, and partial nudity is what rate this R. Nothing graphic.

Very Dissapointing
Compared to the other two this is a flipping joke of a movie. Only one scene freaked me out was when the girl robot killed a man and blood spread onto the picture, that's it.

He's back to kick some T-X
Very violent Terminator movie with some iffy stuff. The T-X makes her breasts bigger and also the terminators arrive on Earth naked. Curse words including f*ck and b*tch are present. One characters tries to steal medicine for other people.

Good
It was a good movie, not the best in the series, but all right. The language wasn't as strong as the first one, but still pretty strong.

14 and up
This movie was ok. There is non-stop action throughout the movie but there is nothing too bloody. In the beginning, the male and female terminator are naked. The language is pretty bad. The movie is entertaining.

Better than "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" (or at least in my opinion). The first one without the directing assistance of James Cameron.
My rating: PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi action/violence, brief strong language and a scene of nudity.

Good for older teens.
Violence: Strong violence throughout, most is robot against robot but also has a few bloody shootings, the terminator looks real so he has bloody wounds. Sex and Nudity: The T-X appears naked, and walks across the street nude. her breasts are flashed for a few moments, but no nipples because of her hair. her butt is seen for a little while but it is dark because of the shadows. The Terminator appears nude, butt is seen for a brief moment between the shadows. he walks into a bar and women look at him suggestively. The T-X makes her breast bigger to look like a woman she sees on a clothes store. Language: A lot less than The Terminator Or Terminator 2, but does contain some f words and s words, along with some other mild swears. Drugs and alcohol use:John Conner breaks into a veterinarian clinic and steals drugs and takes them.

Don't Waste Your Time!
It is like pointless killing and has no end to it as it seems. Waste of time. Don't even bother watching the movie.

The good thing about this is that they try and save the earth from evil terminators too much swering that is mostly why it is rated R. Naked people (terminator and T-X). John Conor steals drugs. Car chase and running into glass. In one scene the T-X punches a hole in a guys chest. Killing is bad for kids in this movie too. A good movie for 17+.
