Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines
It's been 10 years since John Connor saved Earth from Judgment Day, and he's now living under the radar, steering clear of using anything Skynet can trace. That is, until he encounters T-X, a robotic assassin ordered to finish what T-1000 started. Good thing Connor's former nemesis, the Terminator, is back to aid the now-adult Connor … just like he promised.

I really liked this movie when it came out, and watching through now I can see the things I really liked (Kristina Loken as the TX; The story progressing into that future nightmarish dreamscape by the end; and, the action is fun).
I can also better see some missed opportunities. Earlier in the film the T-800 knocks down the TX and tells the storyline characters, "She'll be back." Unfortunately the T-800 has a heroes moment in the last seventeen minutes of the film with a very hopeful piece of here dialogue that gets over shadowed by his earlier comment. "I'm back" should have been a big heroe moment, and even I missed it until later rewatchings.
