Terminator Dark Fate: ok here we go ladies and gentlemen….we have come to the last Terminator film in the franchise….to give some context….this film is a soft reboot to the series….basically every film that came after T1 and T2….is no longer Canon…..thats right Terminator Dark Fate is the new official third film in this series…here’s the trailer
I can safely say i despise this film…..to give a short brief description of why I hate this film….well Remember how I faulted T2 and T3 for being to similar to each other…well guess what?..this film takes the cake ….this film takes the exact same plot from T1 and T2….and changed the main characters into females….thats it…..ok just because u change genders…doesn’t make the script different….I have no problem with a full female cast….what I do have a problem with is this God forsaken script….oh and I hate the first 3 min of the film….its a great way to kill ur fan base….ill tell u know why I hate the first 3 min……spoiler alert…in the first 3 min we see the events after T2….and John Conners and his mom (who have been de-aged…ans ill give them credit the CGI used in this scene is amazing….it looked realistic…and this is where the CGI stopped looking good)….anyways there on a beach and I kid u not a Arnold Schwarzenegger Terminator comes out of the ocean…and shoots John Conners, he dies in his moms arms…yes thats right within 3 min of this film….this franchise killed off John Conners……..go piss ur selves u stupid A$$ company….thats a horrible way to start ur film….thats more of a way to get ur fans to leave the theater, or change to a different program….good grief…3 min in and I already despise this film….anyways let’s get onto the plot that happens after this first 3 min …because I don’t want to to go through that again….good job company James Cameron for killing off ur prominent character…BTW this film was once again made by James Cameron…who made the first 2 Terminator films…and this film is back to being R rated….and yes Linda Hamilton is back as Sarah Conners…..so is Arnold Schwarzenegger….by no means this film should have turned out bad…but guess what it did…its like every decision this film does, is wrong….so anyways the plot is, after this horrible beginning…….we cut now to a woman named Dani (played by Natalia Reyes)…..im gonna be honest she’s the most forgettable character in this film…she barley has a personality….and she’s the new John Conners…..wish i was joking……she in the future becomes and the new rebellion leader….how wonderful 👏😑🤦♂️….anyways so this time instead of Kyle Reese coming to the past….its now a woman named Grace (played by MacKenzie Davis)…..to be honest I think she’s not half bad in this film…..she’s the only one of the new characters who has something resembling a personality….then we also get introduced to our evil Terminator naked the Rev-9…(played by Gabriel Luna)….gonna be honest here…..I don’t think he was menacing…..at all….in my opinion…..infact he did a better job playing ghost rider on the hit ABC show called Agents of Shield……no I haven’t reviewed that yet…..yes I will…..in the summer….but for now all u need to know is this actor played ghost rider in Agents of Shield…which is loosely connected to the MCU…so I guess that makes him the first ghost rider in the MCU…..I digress….anyways whats ao different about Terminator?…nothing he pretty much has similar abilities to the Terminator in T2…..but ill admit it….he does have one cool ability…..he can split his human shell form separately….meaning he can have his exoskeleton self and human shell self fight against people at same time if he wants……thats cool……..but thats as much praise km giving him…..anyways so not Johnny gets saved by not Kyle….at her job……see um Dani and her brother work at a factory……👍…..while that happens there dad gets murdered by the Rev-9…….great…..he goes to their job and tries killing Dani….in a similar fashion like Arnold Schwarzenegger did in T1….again this film is a ripoff…..infact it’s down right plagiarism st this point…..anyways not Kyle saves Dani and her brother…a car chase happens…her brother dies…..Sarah Conners comes out of nowhere with a bazooka….and blows the Rev-9 away…..if ur asking why she’s on the road with a bazooka…well apparently she got a message telling her of a location of a Terminator…..how convenient…..oh and she does say to our 2 losers….sorry no way I’m calling our main characters heros….fine ill say grace is a hero…while Dani is um…whats the opposite of hero….um ….Loser…ok good…well go with that….so Sarah says to our hero and Loser that “ill be back”….sorry no Conners u do not get to use that line…thats for Arnold….and Arnold alone……so anyways they escape and take conner as captive….she wakes up in a motel…only to be greeted by our hero and loser…..at first Conners things Skynet still exists….but nope we find out from Grace…that its no longer Skynet…its now a company called legion…and they make Terminators…..wow so glad to know that even with a totally new company….they still will produce killer droids that look the same…..how so original…😑🤦♂️…..anyways also Conners thinks at first Dani is gonna be the mother of the future rebellion leader…but nope turns out Dani is the future rebellion leader…bullshite…..she is….I buy into that as much as I buy into, Jai Courtney as Kyle Reese…….meaning I don’t buy into that at all…..or better yet I buy into it as much as I buy into, Jason Clarke as John Conners….again meaning I don’t believe it at all…..yeah movie…sure…ur totally convincing me this scrawny looking person with barley a personality is gonna be the leader…again nothing hate to woman…in fact I like female lead roles….its just this one wasn’t done well…..the only 2 characters I have a shit about in this film was Grace and Sarah Conners….sad thing is Dani is overshadowed by both of them…I mean what do u expect….one of those woman is freaking Sarah Conners…and the other one looks like she’s giving a damn about her role she’s playing…..while Dani for majority of the time just sits there dumbfounded….and looking back and forth at them…….wow such a great personality….oh plz show us more of u looking dumbfounded…🤦♂️…..I hate this movie….alot……so anyways we also find out that grace has some implants in her…which makes her not fully human…because war injured her and needed implants to fix damage…….yikes…..oh and as stated…grace is basically Kyle Reese…she gets sent to the past to save past self of her leader….wow so original…..oh so can’t wait to see what other clever and new ideas u bring us film….😑😑…..so anyways they try getting out of the boarder…thats right there in Mexico…..while the Rev-9 is hunting them down…..our 2 main heros and loser get captured by the military….because of course our trio get captured by a form of solders……where did I hear this before?…oh right…..T1….Terminator Genosies……..movie can u plz do something original…I beg u…….so anyways Rev-9 comes and attacks the military….are 3 main…oh wait sorry…our 2 main heros and 1 loser….escape….into the forest outside the borders…..in the forest they find a cabin….and guess who’s in the cabin…its the Arnold Schwarzenegger Terminator who killed John Conners…..good grief….Sarah kill him…u have every rights to…..oh she tries to but grace stores her….cuz?…..🤷♂️…idk script…..anyways we find out that after he killed John Conners he felt regret….yeah u hear that right a robot that’s programed to kill has somehow grown a conscious…go figures….now he goes buy the name Carl….yes thats right Carl the Terminator…..😑😑…..I think a bit of my inner nerdness for this series has died alot…..also he now has a wife and a daughter…yet he says he never had sex with her…..Don’t even begin wondering how he has a daughter…or was it a son….I forget…..anyways also he has a job now….yeah his job is doing curtains…..and he wears plaid shirts ….yes Carl the Terminator who does curtaining for a life….lets just continue on i already feel violated watching this film ……anyways they recruit, Carl….Jesus im not calling him that anymore……so they head out….he is about to put his glasses on but he doesn’t…..oh come on!!…..so anyways Dani has a moment where she does a speech…..saying not standing down or something like that….but the way she said it sounded dumb…couldn’t take it seriously….I did however cringe…..so anyways in the third act our 3 heros and 1 loser go stop Rev-9…. a 20 or 25 min fight happens ….if ur wondering why that long…well first off first fight is on a cargo plane….second fight continues when there creating back down to the ground…..then third fight is inside a damn….I think…..anyways so fight ends with Grace dying….because of course…she’s basically female Kyle Reese….🤦♂️…..ughhh….she gives Dani her power source in her….to use as a bomb to blow up the Rev-9…..so then this happens
Now if u don’t want to watch the clip because there is blood…because R rated…..then let me describe this scene…..Carl the Terminator grabs the power source pushes it into the Rev-9….then they both fall into a pit that’s dulled with spikes….they get impaled….and Carl golds down the Rev-9 while the bomb is setting off to kill them both….yes Arnold dies…again…..shocker….😑🤦♂️……and his last words to Sarah is for John….right forget to mention he’s the one who’s been sending the messages to her telling her where a Terminator is……because guilt….again just sigh…..so yeah now Arnold Schwarzenegger Terminator is dead…again…for the 5th time…in this God forsaking series!!…..and Rev-9 is dead…woo-hoo….who cares…the film ends with Sarah and Dani the loser heading off …somewhere…idk….the end….good grief…I hate this film…it makes me feel immense hate….its strange. For a film that was supposed to save the series…it sure as hell killed off the series….im gonna give this film a solid 1/10….avoid it like the plague…..
