Being such a fan of the Terminator saga, I couldn't miss going to the movie theaters and watch this new movie. This time, I knew I was going to find different actors, and a plot more focused on the war between machines & humans, instead of the typical Terminator movies when the Terminator either tries to destroy John Connors or saves him from other robots. The plot was great, a movie loaded of action from the very first minute to the end and unexpected situations.

What did I like from this movie?

1. The strong Terminator that resembles Arnold Schwarzenegger and fights against John Connors and the Terminator at the end of the movie. It's amazing how they create such a look alike so perfect! I was amazed and laughed at the same time.
2. The Moto-Terminator bikes. They were simply amazing. I'm not a robot lover geek, but I have to admit that they were amazing.
3. Definitely, the sound on this movie was amazing. especially during the explosions and persecutions with the Moto-Terminator bikes.

What did I dislike from this movie?

1. Let's face it, it was kinda strange watching a Terminator movie knowing that Arnold Schwarzenegger wasn't the Terminator!
2. I felt a little confused detecting who was the main character on this movie. For few moments, I felt that the movie was all about the Terminator, then I felt it was all about John Connors.
3. Too much "feelings" shown by the Terminator, even though, we know that Marcus Wright didn't know he died and offered his body to be transformed as a Terminator.

I would rate this movie with a 4/5
