At the Movies - Terminator Genisys

Imagine going back in time to 1984 and telling fans of The Terminator that Arnold Schwarzenegger would become the hero of the franchise. Not just that, but he would be a father figure to John Connor and later Sarah Connor in sequels spread out over nearly 25 years. Not only that but his good Terminator would eventually go back in time to literally and figuratively all but erase the existence of his bad Terminator from the first movie, and make null all the events that play out in that original installment.

That’s we’re at with Terminator Genisys, a movie that might at least make you feel like you’ve gone back in time yourself and helped changed the past.

Director: Alan Taylor. Cast: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Emilia Clarke, Jason Clarke and Jai Courtney. Rated: PG-13. Time: 1:59.
