I'd rank it above T3 but well below T2 or T1, both of which I love. MINOR SPOILER AHEAD - the difference between "McG" (what a tool of a name) and Cameron is that Cameron has the Terminator crushing roses with his foot in ONE memorable close-up, while "McG" crushes everything in sight in countless close-ups. Once is homage, a dozen times shows you have no ideas of your own and are an idiot.
Yeah because Cameron invented the slow-mo foot stomping shot.....come on....stop nit picking......but I agree, McG is a ridiculous name. I don't think anyone was expecting a superior movie to the first two, but it did what it should have done, redeem the franchise after the third one left a sour taste in viewer's mouths.
