The tone of Rise was just too jarring. It felt like a spoof almost.
Salvation felt like a Terminator movie and Christian Bale was a supporting player in it.
Nick Stahl? Nah, Edward Furlong was John Connor and one thing I really struggle with regardless of the reasons behind it is the changing of actors in films.
