the sarah connor chronicles - gnothi seauton



The second episode of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles has been aired. It wasn't as good as the first one but definitely worth watching. The dialoges felt a bit stiff sometimes and the plot was kind of indistinct and almost annoying from time to time. But the show has something that I like - and it's not just Summer Glau as the new hot teen terminator who's protecting the young John Connor - there are other things too. Even though I think they could have managed to write a better and tighter script for this episode the setting of the show is promising. I like the dark mood and the pale colors of the cinematography. It feels very post 9/11 with school shootings, homeless people, trailer parks, gangsters and violence. No terrorists so far but I'm sure they'll show up sooner or later.
