As a fan of the Terminator movies, the next installment to the franchise, Terminator Genisys, was exactly what I was hoping for. The film did an excellent job of tracking causality and did so in a way that both acknowledged the past while rebooting the timeline for future movies. Keeping true to the on-going theme that “Judgement Day” can never really be avoided, only postponed, despite the characters’ convictions that “this time they can succeed.”
Final Thoughts: While this movie may not be very memorable, I believe it was well done overall; my only real complaints being the acting for Kyle Reese’s character, the tacky explanation using nanobots (rather than just saying it is a machine composed of nano bots), and some may disagree but, the Terminators upgrade not reversing his aging exterior.
