Terminator: Genisys review

#timesofindia------ James Cameron's Terminator became an instant action/sci-fi classic when it hit screens in 1984, with its chillingly bleak, dystopian vision depicting merciless machines wiping out humanity. John Connor was a beacon of hope then. Genisys now depicts Skynet as a massively evolved cybernetic entity that is almost omnipresent in its own self-created reality as well as the real world. It can not only attack from the future, but from the past too. It can infiltrate the real world at will. see more at :  

#theatlantic ------It goes, I think, like this: In 2029, John Connor learns that Skynet—the artificial intelligence network out to destroy humanity—will attack his Resistance from two fronts, past and future. To prevent this, 

Connor sends his lieutenant Kyle Reese back to 1984 to protect his mother, Sarah, from the Terminator who has been sent to assassinate her. But Reese’s presence in 1984 alters space-time, thus creating a whole new timeline that leads to, among other things, new fates for John Connor, new fates for the Terminator, and new fates for Sarah see more at 

#theguardian------Here is the intensely unnecessary back-to-the-beginning-with-a-twist Terminator movie: it’s as if it has gone back in time to murder our memories of the ancestral first film and crush the series’ reputation. As well as many other fantastically irritating things, they have rebooted the spelling of “genesis”. The old spelling of “genesis” is an orthographic franchise which has been reinvigorated. They’ve reimagined it. They’ve upgraded it. It’s left me in a state of paralisys. It’s crushing every brain synapsys. This is a personal crisys and I may need analisys, and the basys of all this is that Terminator Genisys is the antithisys of enjoyable. see more at
