The New Terminator Movie

First, the movie takes up where the second Terminator move left off.  All the crappy sequels have been ignored.  Don't let that bother you.

Second, Linda Hamilton is great.  So is Arnold.

Third, the first 20% or more of the movie centers on three strong women, and they continue to dominate the film.

Fourth, one of the heroines is a Mexican woman.  Seriously.  I won't spoil the ending for you, but she is just amazing.

Finally, at one point the three women must cross the border into the U.S. illegally.  Linda and I watched this in a theater in Lehighton, and here was a whole group of anglo Carbon County residents identifying with the women and hoping they will be able to cross into the U.S. without getting caught by the Border Patrol.

I give it two thumbs up.
