Twenty years on, 'Rise of the Machines' powerful and bleak conclusion remains one of the highlights of the killer cyborg franchise.
August 29, 1997. It was the day the world was supposed to end, the day when a military super-computer named Skynet became self-aware, and did its best to wipe out all life on Earth.
Although Cameron had tentatively worked on a follow-up in the mid-’90s – and made"Terminator 2 3D: Battle Across Time" for a ride at Universal Studios – his thoughts were elsewhere by the time"Terminator 3" became a reality. It was a hole that director Jonathan Mostow – hot property in Hollywood action circles at the time, after"Breakdown" and"U-571" – and screenwriters John Brancato and Michael Ferris struggled to fill.
With Sarah killed before the movie kicks off – we eventually learn she died from leukemia, having survived just long enough to see Armageddoncoming to pass – her son, John, becomes the center of the story. Sadly, he's no substitute for his mom. For most of its running time, the movie feels like it's looking over its shoulder, asking"what would Jim Cameron do?" without ever having the right answers. The action, while perfectly serviceable, never supplies a wow moment to compete with Cameron at his best.
