Farewell Arnie....Welcome Christian Bale & Sam Worthington.....after watching Sam's effort in this terrific movie, I was soooooo proud to be an Aussie!!! Good on'ya Sam......Aussie, Aussie, Aussie....Oi, Oi, Oi !!!! ..... maybe only fellow Aussies will know what I just did. I am usually skeptical when it comes to the success of sequels, they remind me of gambling on Racehorses.....lose your first wager and the 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc. become more and more desperate. I know, I know, that was a weird example, but hey, I did warn you that I'm an Aussie. Getting back to this wonderful flick.....Christian Bale, although not my main-man as an Actor, is one of the most talented, diversified and consistent actors today. And to see Our Australian-made Sam Worthington starring beside such talents as Bale, jolted me into realising how good Sam can be. He has been most underrated Internationally thus far, but here in "DownUnder" we are certainly aware of his prowess. "Terminator 4: Salvation" is by far the BEST of all the Terminator films.....even with Bales' having a shot at Arnies' "hasta la vista baby" with his "I'll be back".....I enjoyed this film so much. So sorry Governor Schwarzeneger, gone with the old Terminator films and in with these new Terminators if this is anything to go by.

The Haunted Airman
(2006 TV Movie)
A Complete Waste of Time
8 December 2009
Being a typical stereotypical Aussie, I am broadminded and satisfied with most films, be it Top Shelf, big Budget Block-busters or 'B' Grade beauties..... BUT, in this instance, I am going to be a complete hypocrite and severely knock this woeful movie. I do not care that Robert Pattinson is some kind of bubble-gum-toy-boy Twilight twit....that is inconsequential, I take each effort on it's merits. Julian Sands is a fine actor, no thespian, and I was surprised to find him accepting the outcome of this trash. Maybe the Director, his Screen Writer and such are aware of the tedious progress of this movie, but to us mere mortals...."what the heck is this plot all about, where is it going". Anyway, I've had my say, albeit probably a target of the 'Net Trolls, but I paid my hard-earned-cash to go see it and if I were more aggressive, I would have stormed back to the Ticket Office and requested a 'Refund'. I have NEVER criticised a film as I have here, so hopefully, this is the last.
