John Connor (played by Nick Stahl),
the young man who had been pursued by a Terminator cyborg in "T2" is
now 18 years old and he's a drifter. Although the world has survived
beyond the originally scheduled "judgment day," he still doesn't
feel safe, so he goes from job to job and has no permanent address.
He's right to feel edgy, since a new cyborg from the future is again
after him. This time it is in the form of a woman (Kristanna Loken)
who can morph and has a large arsenal of weapons on-board. John's
protector Terminator model (Arnold Schwarzenegger) returns to save
him again. Also with Claire Danes and David Andrews. Directed by
Jonathan Mostow. [1:48]
SEX/NUDITY 4 - A nude woman walks across a street: we
see her bare buttocks, back, legs and part of one bare breast. A
nude man walks through a desert, across a road and into a bar where
women look at him and make remarks (we see his bare chest, buttocks
and legs). A male stripper dances on a stage in front of a crowd of
cheering women (we don't see him take anything off). A female
Terminator sees a billboard reading "What is sexy," picturing a
woman with cleavage, and the Terminator makes her own breasts and
cleavage grow. Women wear tight-fitting outfits that reveal cleavage
and bare abdomens. A man and a woman talk about having kissed when
they were in junior high school together, and that kids "made out"
in a friend's basement.
VIOLENCE/GORE 8 - A Terminator punches its hand
through the back seat of a car and through the driver's chest (we
see a blood soaked arm moving around and see the man quivering and
gagging until he dies); the passenger is slammed against the window
of the car causing it to break and we see blood splatter on it. A
Terminator shoots a young man through a drive-thru window, and a
Terminator shoots a young man after shoving him onto the floor. A
man is shot in the chest several times and falls to the floor (we
see holes in his clothing and blood in his mouth). A woman is shot,
she falls on the floor quivering, a Terminator approaches her,
sticks its finger in a bloody bullet hole on her chest and licks its
finger. A Terminator approaches a man, we hear a saw, hear a crunch
and see blood splatter on a photograph. A bomb explodes in a room
killing a man (we see blood on his face and head). A Terminator
approaches a woman in a car, we turn away from the woman, hear a
tearing crunch, and see the Terminator driving the woman's car and
wearing her clothes. Heavily armed machines roll through a facility
shooting many people (we see rooms littered with dead bodies). Two
Terminators fight, punching and kicking each other and slamming into
and through walls, into toilets, and one head-butts the other a few
times; then one shoots fire at the other causing its face to melt,
one touches the other with an electrical cable and it jerks and
sputters, and one Terminator is slammed down onto a metal slab,
kicked several times and then its head is kicked off. A Terminator
throws a man a couple of times, holds him by the throat and nearly
hits him. A Terminator with a woman's appearance is shot and falls
back onto the floor. A Terminator is shot at by many armed police
officers, he shoots back destroying their vehicles but causing no
human casualties. Two helicopters crash into a building, and one
helicopter squashes a Terminator as it passes. A woman is shot at as
she runs away, she gets into a truck, a Terminator punches out the
window, tears off the door, throws the woman out of the truck, and
presses its foot on the woman's neck. A Terminator chases and shoots
fire at a man and a woman. A woman shoots a Terminator, and the
Terminator catches the bullet in its mouth and spits it out. A
Terminator grabs a man's leg and he screams in pain. A Terminator
chases a car, jumps on its roof, begins cutting it open with a saw,
it is shot at repeatedly, the car drives under a truck, peeling the
Terminator off along with the roof. A Terminator drives cars by
remote control, they slam into a pick-up truck, ram it, the truck
spins around, and the other cars sandwich it. A Terminator hangs
from the hook and arm of a truck and is dragged through a building;
we see glass shattering, and the building crumbling; the Terminator
is slammed into the front of a fire truck, it throws the
firefighters out of the moving truck and chases another truck
crashing into it, and the driver shoots at it causing the fire truck
to explode. A Terminator is hit by a rocket-propelled grenade and
crashes into a headstone. A Terminator shoves an explosive into
another Terminator and it explodes. A Terminator is hit by a pick-up
truck, slammed through a wall and the truck explodes. A Terminator
is shot several times (we see holes in its metal), another
Terminator is shot with a laser and it is thrown back and crashes
into a wall (we see it smoldering and it has slashes in its skin). A
Terminator drives a large construction vehicle with a huge arm and
hook and chases a man in a small pick-up truck: the arm and hook are
deployed knocking down many light poles and hitting many parked
cars, the truck is overturned and crashes down hard onto the roadway
with the driver climbing along the outside at the time and flames
billow from the wreckage. A Terminator throws a man off a motorcycle
and steals it. A car crashes into the back of another car followed
by a huge truck. A Terminator drives recklessly through busy streets.
A man crashes his motorcycle while trying to avoid a deer in the
road; the man rolls on the street in pain (the deer is uninjured)
and we see him later with a bandaged leg wound (a bit of blood on
the bandage). A Terminator squeezes a man's hand (we hear a crunch
and hear the man exclaim in pain) and threatens him. There are a few
scenes that show the surface of the planet being hit by missiles
that explode on impact, send up huge mushroom clouds and shockwaves
wipe out everything around them. A plane shoots at a man and a
woman, she picks up a gun, fires back and the plane breaks apart. We
see the floor of a stream or a river carpeted with human skulls and
bones. A Terminator shoots at a pick-up truck, but misses and hits a
truck with gas canisters tanks on the back and it explodes. A
Terminator sticks to a metal tube when the magnetic field in a
passage way is initiated (we see it twitch and begin to break
apart). A Terminator cuts its chest open, tears off the outer
"flesh," pulls out a failing part, throws it out at a moving
vehicle, and it explodes on the side of the road sending out a
slight shockwave. A Terminator comes back to "life" and we see it
re-covering itself with liquid-metal and then "flesh." A woman jumps
on a Terminator's back and it throws her against a metal box where
she hits her head. A young man imagines a city in flames with robots
marching through, firing weapons. A woman shoots a man with a
paint-ball gun and shoves him into a kennel. A man holds a gun to
his head and threatens to kill himself. A man yells at and threatens
another man. A Terminator pulls a coffin out of the wall of a crypt
and opens it revealing an arsenal of weapons. A Terminator puts a
woman over his shoulder, tosses her in the back of a pick up truck
and locks the door (we hear her yelling a few times and see her
being tossed around as the truck swerves). A Terminator holds a man
off the ground by his neck and the man coughs and gasps; and a
Terminator holds a woman off the ground and she screams for help. We
hear radio broadcasts from cities under attack. We see robots with
glowing red eyes in a couple of scenes. A Terminator fires the gun
of a machine at another machine that fires back, until they both
smolder and break down. Mannequins melt in a store display when a
Terminator arrives, brush catches fire when another Terminator
arrives. A Terminator pounds on a pick-up truck until it is
crumpled. A man talks about his step parents having been murdered.
People talk about how a man dies. We hear about a woman having died
and that she was cremated. A man drives a pick-up truck on sidewalks
and through yards knocking down fences and a children's play area.
