I thought this was a far cry from the first 3 movies (as well as the better episodes of the show), but it's still a cut above the normal sci-fi action film. One of the nighttime shots of the prison camp gave me chills, because not only did it remind me of the look and feel James Cameron established in the first 2, but it reminded me of when I was a kid playing with "Terminator" action figures and imagining what the future war was like. The chase scene from the gas station to the bridge and the fight with the T-800 also did a fine job of recapturing the classic "Terminator" feel.
