Horrible! This weak audio comic book has all the charm and verve of a VCR manual. The producers clearly cranked out this collateral product in a limp effort to support their summer blockbuster, losing a golden opportunity to create exciting audio theater. Had they attempted to do this instead of parroting the novel of the screenplay, they might have impressed the public with their creativity instead of wasting our time and dulling our imaginations. Mind you, there are no sound effects and only one reader. Chances are, the stars were too busy or expensive to take part in the project, which is hackneyed beyond belief and read gamely but lamely (including meek Arnold impressions). Avoid TERMINATOR 3 at all costs! D.J.B. © AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine--
