O Exterminador do Futuro: Gênesis

Not quite as bad as i thought it would be, Terminator: Genisys brings back the nostalgia of the first two films. It even has the same old-school vibe to it. But when you get to its core, Genisys is simply a rehash of the first two masterpieces, which are so good there was no point in revisiting them.

A destruction of a franchise trying to reboot it and failing for the third time. If you look closer Mr. James Cameron finished the franchise in the second. And many tried to re boot it twice creating spectacular failures. The third however is another same scenario film that establishes the same losing streak. Like I said a lot funds wasted for something useless without any premise.

The story tries to innovate bringing all the stories together but misses out the basics. Creating a good film.

Anyway the story ends with a hope of a new universe. Let's hope how it'll perform. No expectations though.

Pretty contrived and cheesy but the acting wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It's fun, has plenty of action and throwback Easter eggs. It won't blow you away but it's a decent action flick. If it had a better script it would have had more potential.

Paradoxes puzzle and abound, contradictions, conflict, chaos all confound, no rhyme or reason to the madness, no method to the flatness, just concept caged confusion to astound.

It's all a bit cobbled and confused, inconsistent, quite erratic and diffused, some spectacular set pieces, the action seldom ceases, but the arc, the arch, the story's all bemused.

The new Terminator wasn't terrible! I'm surprised. Though it had its flaws it was much better then Terminator 3 and Salvation... and I actually enjoyed it mostly. I probably won't be watching it like 30 times like Judgement Day, but its not like I expected it to ever live up to Cameron's work....

First off, the action was good and so was the pace, the film never became boring even with how complex the story was so it certainly gets points for that.

The film itself runs like the greatest hits of the the franchise which is both good and bad.

The pros: Revisiting 1984 (the first terminator timeline) was a lot of fun for obvious reasons.. You get more things like crazy manoeuvres from the T1000 etc and Arnie gets to kick some ass and even be funny at times....

The cons: How many times do they have to repeat lines from the previous films? Sarah Conner says: "Come with me if you want to live" Really? Again? Really? Come on, having that as an obligatory line in each movie is actually annoying. "I'll be back" is just like an obligatory oh, we'll just squeeze that in there, the audience will love that! Nope, not really, see in the first Terminator that had impact! Like the impact of a car coming through the wall! This is there just for the sake of it...

Aside from that, I think JK Simmons character was borderline pointless, you could nearly have cut him out of the movie and barely noticed! A crying shame for such an excellent actor.. Generally the script could have done with more tweaking, some plot towards the end just seemed outright silly, but I will say the chemistry between Arnie and Emilia was actually pretty good!

Overall: It's no Judgement day but you know what, it was actually a decent film and it was great to see Arnie as the Terminator again, and not saying "talk to the hand" . I can see why James Cameron endorsed this as the true sequel to T2...
