Synopsis
Returning for a third bout of cyborg time travelling, Arnold Schwarzenegger reprises his good-robot role from TERMINATOR 2, once again travelling back from the future to protect future human resistance leader John Connor (played this time around by Nick Stahl). We soon discover that Connor has become something of a drifter, his mother Sarah Connor has passed away, and he has taken to the road in order to preserve himself for his supposed destiny. When Connor breaks into a lab to score some painkillers, he unwittingly runs into his future belle Kate Brewster (Claire Danes), and a whole load of titanium-plated-trouble in the form of a hot female Terminator played by newcomer Kristanna Loken. Hell-bent on destroying Connor, Brewster, and anyone else that gets in her way, Loken's Terminator comes face to face with Schwarzenegger's Terminator leading to some epic battles between the two cyborgs, and a neat string of one-liners from Schwarzenegger.
Director Jonathan Mostow (U-571) clearly relishes upping the CGI ante for this explosive sequel, providing some no-holds-barred action sequences. Mostow also offers intriguing storylines continued from the previous two films, delighting fans of the franchise. In the chaotic final sequences Schwarzenegger warns "she'll be back," hinting that there's more Terminator frenzy to come in the not-too-distant future.

Customer Reviews

Ignore the beware below - it does not concern this release
The "beware" is over the American Warner Bros release, which was initially only 1080i due to an authoring error. This UK release is from Sony, and has a full 1080p transfer and lossless audio that the US version lacks.

Need sub-titles?
This has soundtracks in English and Italian; sub-titles in Danish, English, English for the Hard of Hearing, Finish, Hindi, Italian, Norwegian and Swedish.

Beware
Took a look at this review of the transfer on hidefdigest before pre-ordering (as bizarrely I like this movie) and the following was written:

"Unfortunately, marring this Blu-ray release is one serious glitch. Due to an encoding error, the disc pumps out 1080i video, not the 1080p indicated on the packaging. Although Warner has suggested that it will eventually correct the problem on future pressings and offer a disc exchange program for those who've already bought the disc, this still leaves potential customers in a quandary -- do you buy 'T3' now out of impatience, or wait for the corrected version?"
