Terminator: Dark Fate Reviews

I enjoy this film, no way does it hold it’s own to the original and Judgement Day but it is better than the other sequels. Glad to see Linda back, Arnie is doing his thing, Gabriel Luna is good as the villain, and Mackenzie is badass The story and direction should’ve been better.

7/10 What a way to end the franchise (for now at least). I loved having Linda Hamilton and Arnold Schwarzenegger back. The new additions were fantastic and I enjoyed the woman empowerment of it all.

Es ist cool das sie die echte Sara Conner wieder geholt haben und das sie eine Direckt fortsetzen von TN 2 gemacht haben und die anderen teile verworfen hatten. Jedoch bringen die Filme nicht mehr allzu neues. Sie sollten leider aber nötig terminiert werden und zum Ende kommen.

The film itself is good, but I felt like it is kinda unnecessary. It’s simply more of the exact same. And the storyline of Terminator doesn’t need this alternative storyline to work out.
I would like to see another plot… or just leave it with the first three movies

Terminator: Dark Fate goes back to the franchise’s core concepts, while also trying to carve out a new direction for the franchise. Another retconned franchise, another ill-advised attempt to capitalize on an intellectual property well past its prime.

There are some extremely strong woke agenda themes in this movie. If you can get passed that, this latest addition to the series has Arnold’s best one-liners. Arnold is, in my opinion, quite humorous in this one. In addition, being the most recent, it’s the best looking.

Didn’t really liked it pretty much stretched the plot from the first movie.

Just a waste of time to bring unnessassary aggressive man hate/dialogue/sex comments/threats and unlogical acts for the characters to expres their

Main characters are really boring without any actual interesting traits.

3.5/5---Good---Rank B

Recycle the same plot please!

absolutely not.

the return of Sarah Connor and Papi. despite everyone saying that it doesn't match the firsts, they're still at the same level and hold a unique spark.

Just simply the most unnecessary follow-on ever… beyond that, rendering its masterpiece predecessor essentially redundant… also kinda wild that with 20 years of technology enhancements the visual effects manage to look worse! Relying on CGI over practical effects is an evident misfire, the franchise was built by Cameron on innovation in this field (and narrative beats, of course!).

Dialogue is truly awful, making characters immensely unlikeable - particularly Grace, it’s just a mess and grossly cringe, but even how the script navigates the narrative is sub-par, often feeling a bit directionless.

It’s no surprise Tim Miller hadn’t made a feature since, 6 years later…

I keep asking myself what a 1980s audience would've thought had this been the original, and what a 2020s audience would think of the original had it been released now. Unfortunately, I don't have a time machine to experiment with. Regardless, this is a heavy improvement from 'Genisys', mainly due to the incredible casting. Although it's not much of an improvement, as I still rank it a little below 'Salvation'. The exposition is messy, especially in its messaging. The overall timeline has become almost comedically convoluted, and the plot reuses anything and everything from past films. It works better as a standalone, but I wouldn't even call it one.

Linda Hamilton’s return as Sarah Connor is easily the highlight. She brings bitterness, humor, & earned weariness that grounds the film. However, Killing John Connor early feels disrespectful, not bold. It erases decades of emotional investment just to reset the board.

This movie series should have ended with the second movie.

6/10 it’s not bad but it’s just not amazing. The new terminator design was crazy. Whihc was about the best thing in the film.
