1. Terminator 3 (NBN, Friday, 9.45pm) is worth watching for the crane chase scene. It’s downhill after that. 2. Not clear what motivated two fine actors, Robert De Niro and Sean Penn, to take part in a lucklustre remake of We’re No Angels (Ten, Saturday, midnight). Perhaps the cheques read better than the script. 3. No mystery in any actor wanting to work for director David Lynch. Mullholland Drive (NBN, Saturday, 11.20pm) may be the best movie 1 2 3 this week.
