    Description

    An augmented human and Sarah Connor must stop an advanced liquid Terminator from hunting down a young girl, whose fate is critical to the human race.

    Сast and Crew

    Production

    By December 2013, Skydance Productions was planning for Terminator Genisys to be the start of a new trilogy of films. The Genisys sequels were scheduled for release on May 19, 2017, and June 29, 2018. For the second film in the planned trilogy, actor Arnold Schwarzenegger was to reprise his role as the T-800. Terminator Genisys was produced by Skydance founder David Ellison, and was released in 2015, but its disappointing box-office performance stalled the development of the planned trilogy. Dana Goldberg, the chief creative officer for Skydance, said in October 2015 that she "wouldn't say [the franchise is] on hold, so much as re-adjusting". According to Goldberg, despite Genisys disappointing domestic performance, the company was happy with its worldwide numbers and still intended to make new films. Production of a sequel would begin no earlier than 2016 because the company planned market research to determine its direction after Genisys. The Genisys sequels were ultimately cancelled.

    In general, this film smells of fatigue from the franchise, if it were not for at least Genesis, it would have looked better. It’s nice that they got rid of Skynet, but people don’t learn anything. Sarah Conor trolls like an internet troll. Schvratz is a parody of himself. Girls are okay. Movie Gilty Player.

    Women, old men and old women have spent two hours senselessly trying to kill something that is difficult to kill.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    The problem is not in the film, but in us. Everyone on every corner is saying that the first 2 parts were masterpieces, and this is partly correct, they will be masterpieces for those times, but right now it’s not that time anymore. Nowadays the consumer is fed with blackbusters, but at that time it was new. And the plot in the first parts was not so great, just remember. But the film as a whole is not good

    Watched

    There are too many ladies in the frame and not a single scene in the kitchen.

    Watched

    Real torture, not a movie. It’s bad when your "cheerful" 2-hour movie, while watching, gives you the feeling of a 10-hour dull reflection on the importance of third world countries and the female gender. A sad and idealess shame. Explain the word "plot" to the writers and show the first films in the franchise.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    To be honest, I expected the worst from the film. But for those who pray for Terminator 2, there are many outlets in this film. The plot itself and the new terminators are almost not encouraging (perhaps because I am no longer 10 years old).

    Translated to English

    Watched

    I knew what I was getting into and that’s why I was drunk, but the moment it turned out that the T800’s name was Karl, he was handing over curtains, sitting on an Ikea chair, I instantly sobered up. But not everything is so bad, there are also good moments when I lost consciousness from the delirium of what was happening on the screen and I dreamed of Terminator 2.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    Well, it’s like Terminator 2 only 10 times worse, the effects are like plasticine, the dialogues are stupid, the main "resistance leader" is useless and annoying. If they decide to make a new one, then only a completely new cast, a new idea and talented creators, and well, a smaller budget, like the Joker.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    Almost all the negative impressions from the trailers were confirmed. Weak. The only thing that has been tweaked is some of the action scenes, which look better. This is really very close to "Genesis", the latter at least tried to originality of the plot.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    Disappointed! Nothing new. They wanted to add something new, but they only made it worse. A film without "soul". Beautiful wrapper, but in the middle…

    This is agony… I don’t understand why Cameron took on this film. Everything has changed again. I don’t recommend watching it, except at home.

    6 hand does not rise to place. This is the Terminator) Arnie alone is worth two extra points. Very dynamic and cool fights, but otherwise… Linda Hamilton was simply infuriating with her acting, and even the phrases they wrote for her were stupid. Well, overall the plot is weak. It’s a pity…

    Translated to English

    Watched

    The bottom has been reached. Just copying and sending! "Subtle" reference to the old woman from the alternate ending of T-2; "squid" from 3 Matrix; insulting fans of the franchise along the lines of the new Blade Runner (killing the cartoonish young protagonist); flying bowling pin people; casting screwed up

    Translated to English

    Watched

    If I hadn’t seen all the other parts I would have said it was a normal movie. But after watching all the parts it was a FAILURE and DISAPPOINTMENT, just nostalgia for the other parts. I don’t recommend feminists to watch it, it’s not worth it.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    And I liked it! The plot is secondary, the dialogue is weak, but how wonderful the old guard is! Reliable and self-ironic Karl. Fighting and sarcastic Sarah. Great action scenes. Grace also felt somehow sorry. And who said that women are only capable of giving birth to heroes, and not being them?

    Translated to English

    Absolute squalor. A script written by a fifth grader on his knee while vaping in the school toilet. Endless repetition, self-repetition, crystal clear references to the golden "Doomsday" cause pain equal in strength to heroin withdrawal.

    Checkmate to all the farts who grunted during the Genesis that "Well, it won’t get any worse."

    Translated to English

    Watched

    On the good side: the cast included the "old guard", special effects, and some good humor slipped through at times. Of the minuses: the idea and plot are frankly weak. I gave it a point for nostalgia…

    Translated to English

    Watched

    If you take this film not as a sequel, but as a parody, then it’s very good: the old people are making faces, the action is terrible plasticine, and the new resistance leaders are terribly stupid. Although the new meximinator is not bad

    Translated to English

    We’ve been through all this before, but it didn’t turn out badly. The visuals are gorgeous. And Grace brightened up the film.

    Watched

    Comparing with the first duology – bad, comparing with T3 and Genesis – very good. I am glad that the creators took into account many of the mistakes of the latest sequels: there are no time machines in the basement, there are no giant transformers, while the authors came up with interesting new cyborgs. Only feminism hurts the eyes

    As a white, cisgender, working woman, I declare that I am tired of the feminist agenda in cinema. "You are not the hero’s mother! You are a hero yourself!" It was as if I had attended a party meeting. Ugh.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    In my opinion, the film does not deserve the hate it got. And it is certainly not the worst film in the franchise. Yes, there are many unknown actors, and an annoying main victim. But the film looks very lively, and many action scenes can be re-watched many times.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    Draining John, in the first 15 minutes there is a pathetic unnecessary attempt at drama with the death of his brother, ail bi bek, a super terminator with a smart skeleton, a pumped up man, legion (what is that name?!?) and much more. The creators are simply mocking, otherwise all this is inexplicable. For what? Nothing good.
