[The Villain]

There was too much focus on action, instead of character development and story. I came into the film really excited, only to be supremely disappointed. As I mentioned, the sky was blue after a nuclear war, this is one of the most implausible things to have occurred in film history. Another thing was that Conner kept relying on the recordings of his mother, which would have made sense if two and three did not happen. But, they did. In fact, he had as much, if not more experience with the machines as his mother, so why does he keep looking to her tapes for advice about the machines? If this was just for sentimental value it would be fine, but he was actually using it for advice about the machines.

Im not arguing if Salvation was good, i didnt hate it but i was disappointed in it. I just liked it over ROTM. Just like you have your reasons for not liking Salvation, i have my reasons for not liking ROTM. In my opinion ROTM did not have a believable story and i hated all the silly antics. It was just dumb. I don't blame you for not liking Salvation, just surprised you would grade it above ROTM. But to each their own.
