Terminator Genisys

Some people have said that Terminator: Genisys is disrespectful to its source material (first two films) but I disagree. Out of what is clearly a massive homage to Judgement Day, Genisys gives away the entire plot and central twist in its promotional material months before its release, just like Judgement Day did!

All levity aside, Terminator: Genisys is not great. They took some risks with their casting and it didnt explode in their face which is nice, a lot of the effects were very visually impressive, and it was fun to see the weapons of the future be purple lasers again, but these arent things that make a good movie by themselves. When you mix them up with a plot that doesnt completely make sense, a story thats just plain n...

Terminator Salvation was pretty bad, but this brings it to a whole new level. What we have hear is a reboot of the canon that no one actually asked for, that no one actually wanted, and that makes really no sense.

Honestly, it's even worse than T3, which at least felt like a continuation of the series.

Here everything is changed so much that, well, there is nothing left. It took the entire Terminator franchise, and re-worked it to kill all the canon, all the mythology, for no apparent reason whatsoever.

And what you have left is a disheveled mess that is guaranteed to make the old fans give up and walk away because of the sheer needlessness alone.
