Before we start, Ill try my best not to mention Matt Smith’s character. Its bad enough the trailer spoiled the biggest twist, no point of ruining more for you guys.

Second: I recognize most people hate this movie, and some like it… I will say, maybe I have it wrong, but as of right now…. I LIKE THIS MOVIE.

Just a heads up. This is not a perfect movie at all, but man is it good. I saw it in an IMAX theatre.. Perhaps the experience added to my enjoyment of this movie. Who knows. ..

..

This film was interesting in so many ways… there are many things you can talk about when it comes to Terminator Genisys… It could be the script, references, cgi, time travel east.

I know saying this may seem as if it’s a great movie. NO IT IS NOT.

This film does so many things right and so many things wrong. Let’s start with the sweet stuff first.

The GOOD

The movie started off strong. We get to see the day Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney) was sent back in time to protect Sarah Connor (Emilia Clarke). And we meet CGI Young Arnie.. “Nice night for a walk ehh”

Great fight scene between Arnold and the CGI version, or should I just say the Young Terminator😢. At the beginning, the movie has a lot of shot to shot of the first terminator… Literally shot for shot.

Almost the same dialogue. It does get annoying at the start, but it was fun to see how far they would take it.

The casting for the most part was good. I have no major problems with Jai Courtney.. Give the guy a break.

Arnold as the terminator. The man still kills is, I think he would be a lot cooler is the script was on point. .. I

So all is good so far right? Wrong

The POOP

The introduction to Sarah Corner… “Come with me if you want to live” When I heard those words….I lost hope a Little. I thought… “There is no need for that, we have all these shot for shot scenes, can we have some originality already?” I really like Clarke in this movie, I just don’t think the script helped her enough to stand on her own two feet, instead of trying so hard to be Sarah Connor from the second terminator.

Once again…. HUMANS ARE STUPID. Why do you need to upload everything in your life online? Have you not learned from the past?… The chemistry was, mehh… again it’s the damn script.

And the plot holes are just 😱😱😱😱.

I am trying to keep this review positive.

The END

In the end, terminator Genisys does not deserve all this hate. I think it is a movie that has great ideas, but struggles to find its spark. It depends too much on the old.

I feel like the next one will get it right….seeing how the rights are going back to James Cameron. ..

I cant say that I “highly recommend” it like I usually do, but I think It’s a movie you have to see and judge for yourself. People have different opinions when it comes to movies. I enjoyed myself, and I hate to use this term…. I really do.. But turn your brain off and try to forget the old movies after the first act and you might find something to like in this movie.

I did not exactly turn my brain off for this movie, but I did find something I liked in this flick. I did find major flaws, but sometimes, you have to give a movie credit for trying. Not every movie can be Mad Max or star Wars ect. ..

I would be glad to see this movie again. I would not purchase the Blu-ray, but I would be happy to see it one more time. Looking forward to the sequel.
