Terminator: Dark Fate

I wasn't expecting much...the default setting of any Terminator veteran post T2.
Honestly? It's ok.
I liked it more than Genesys.
I definitely liked it more than T3.
I would say...it's kind of roughly balanced with how much I liked Salvation.

Definitely made as an intended relaunch.
It's interesting.
The new Terminator has got some balls.
Unusual storyline, hadn't really thought about what would happen if "etc etc' had occurred. Decent action scenes. Ok characters. Couple of nice twists.
Nothing is ever going to touch Terminator 2.
This one at least got a little closer than most.

I gave a slight review on the HorrorDVDs forum for the October month here.

Eddie Murphy is amazing!

Will have to check this one out...DOLEMITE, THE HUMAN TORNADO and AVENGING DISCO GODFATHER are all one of a kind!

DANTE'S PEAK (1997). Found this to be pretty damn good-don't get all the negative reviews- with believable characters and impressive special effects. ***

Ha, no you didn't.
You can't do a review based on your experience with the franchise thus far, and a trailer? All that's gonna do is convince people not to watch it...which sadly, they're already not...apparently it's getting slayed, which is more likely the result of people already going on past films to make their decision.
It's not up there with T1&2...but it's at least a little bit of a return to form.

Yeah they are trying to sell the movie as finally being a worthy sequel and better than everything after T2. But that really shouldn't be seen as a big accomplishment when everything after T2 is bascially crap compared to T1 & T2.

And I read both story breakdowns on wiki and wikia. It wasn't just going by the trailer.

They have put that out there, yes. Though having seen the film I can confirm it.
You're right. Nothing has come close to T2. This, well, still pretty far away. But, closer.

And I read both story breakdowns on wiki and wikia. It wasn't just going by the trailer.

I get it, just...for me, if you're gonna review at all you gotta be there, man. Put one point of contact between you and the finished product, and you'll be ever so slightly biased one way or another for having been exposed.
Even if say it was a source or author, journalist or whatever the many online equivalents would be, even if it was a source you admire, trust, and you find to be in line with your existing tastes etc...there's always the off chance that their take, might influence your own.
You gotta get boots on the ground with this.
I mean I know you're not gonna like it as much as T2. I knew I wouldn't either...so trust me, you're going in correct about that...but it was, (I say this as a guy born in 1981 who holds the original dearly as well as the first sequel...I believe I was at the perfect age to be in fucking awe of these movies - and I too, have been consistently disappointed and let down by the franchise since...it's ridiculous...and it pisses me off that the whole franchise is stained by the ratio of bad/good Terminator films) not bad.
Take my advice - go see it.
It's not gonna be better than on the big screen...so even if it's a shitshow by your standards, you get the best possible shitshow, and less exposure to online complainants that'll hate it on the merit of the other latter sequels/reboot attempt further effect your own judgement.
I believe if this had been Terminator 3, I wouldn't have lost faith in the franchise like I did when I saw what they *actually* gave us.

When you write a review, man. I'll read it.
