Terminator Salvation


Terminator Salvation is a 2009 American science fiction film written by John Brancato and Michael Ferris and directed by Joseph McGinty Nichol (McG). It is the fourth film in the Terminator series, and stars Christian Bale as future Resistance leader John Connor and Sam Worthington as cyborg Marcus Wright. The film also introduces a young Kyle Reese from the original 1984 film, played by Anton Yelchin, as well as depicting the origin of the T-800 Model 101 Terminator. Terminator Salvation, set in 2018, focuses on the war between humanity and Skynet - a departure from the previous installments, which were set on the present day and featured time travel.

The year is 2018. Judgment Day has come and gone, leveling modern civilization. An army of Terminators roams the post-apocalyptic landscape, killing or collecting humans where they hide in the desolate cities and deserts. But small groups of survivors have organized into a Resistance, hiding in underground bunkers and striking when they can against an enemy force that vastly outnumbers them. Only one man saw Judgment Day coming. One man, whose destiny has always been intertwined with the fate of human existence: John Connor. In a battle against time, Conner must save Kyle Rees from Skynet to protect the future of the world.

I never have been a big Terminator fan, and this movie didn't change a thing. I didn't like this movie at all. It some good action scenes but the storyline was pretty boring. If you are a Terminator fan, don't expect much, because this one disappoints.
