Terminator Salvation (reviewed in 100 words or less)

Who better to take on the dead horse that is the Terminator franchise for a bit of a flogging than McG, the director responsible for the stylish but indisputably bad Charlie's Angels and Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle.
Deservedly earning itself a colon in some territories, Terminator Salvation is a tedious examination of what a self-aware military artificial intelligence and a human resistance force absolutely would not do if pitched into battle with one another. Skynet, Michael Ironside and McG all make tactically suicidal decisions at every turn. I bet Christian wishes he'd Baled out when he had the chance.
