Terminator 3 [DVD]

Synopsis

Don't be afraid. You can change the future. The world is eagerly awaiting the third installment of this epic, all-star series. With action scenes that will go down in cinematic history and astonishing VFX that make the impossible possible, this is a hyper-entertainment blockbuster that will shock and thrill.

★An all-star cast! The Terminator, who traveled back in time as evil in the first film and good in the second, is played by the legendary Arnold Schwarzenegger. For his comeback in this film, he underwent six months of rigorous training to hone his physique and even appeared fully nude without dubbing. Nick Stahl, who garnered rave reviews for his performance in "In the Bedroom," plays Sean Connery, who once again embarks on a mission to save the world, burdened with the confusion and sadness of someone who has discovered his own future. Claire Danes, who enjoys enduring popularity in Japan for her roles in "Little Women" and "Romeo & Juliet," plays the heroine, Kate, who is bound to him by a mysterious thread of fate. And as the T-X, who relentlessly pursues John using all her feminine charms, former supermodel Kristanna Loken exudes a strong personality.

★A top-notch crew supports the story! The director is Jonathan Mostow, whose work on "U-571" was nominated for two Academy Awards. Recognized for his thrill-making skills in "Brakedown" and "U-571," he fully demonstrates his talents in this film. Undaunted by the blockbuster title, he draws the viewer in with his sharp, incisive storytelling. The screenplay is written by the duo John Brancato and Michael Ferris, who worked on "The Game." The cinematographer is Don Burgess, who was nominated for an Oscar for "Forrest Gump." The production design is by Jeff Mann, who worked on "Swordfish" and "Gone in 60 Seconds." Costumes were designed by April Ferry, who worked with director Mostow on "U-571." Editing was handled by Neil Travis, who worked on "The Sum of All Fears." Stan Winston, who designed the original Terminator, once again served as animatronics and makeup effects supervisor. Working with ILM, which handled the VFX, they created a visual experience beyond the imagination of movie fans.
