Our take on Terminator Genisys

Alan Taylor's 2015 science-fiction thriller reboots the long-running franchise in the year 2029, where John Connor leads the human resistance against the machines. During a decisive Los Angeles offensive, spies uncover a new SkyNet plot designed to strike Connor from both past and future at once, threatening to reshape the war entirely. This is big-budget time-travel action leaning on set pieces, chases and timeline-bending twists aimed squarely at franchise fans. It suits viewers who want fast, effects-heavy spectacle and enjoy seeing familiar mythology rearranged. If you like your science fiction loud and propulsive and are already invested in this world, Terminator Genisys delivers plenty of motion.
