Terminator can’t seem to top its first two films

After four failed attempts , it ’s good to say that noTerminatormovie will ever top the original two ( althoughCameron has announced he ’s working onTerminator 7 , so the filmmaker still has hope).The first twoTerminatorfilms refused to be pigeonholed by a rigid formula , they made the Terminators feel like a real threat , they used CGI meagerly , and they both had a firm lure – all things the subsequent sequel have missed . Hopefully , Terminator Zerocan make up for all that disappointment .
