Me during every scene of Terminator: Dark Fate: “Man if James Cameron had made this it would probably be pretty good.”
Despite being the sixth (and hopefully final) installment of a franchise that hasn’t really been relevant since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Tim Miller’s competent but coma-inducing “Terminator: Dark Fate” has no reason to feel this far past its expiration date. In a studio age of intellectual property where nostalgia and innovation are tugging us so hard in either direction that it doesn’t seem to matter what happens right here, nothing this side of a “live-action” Disney remake could possibly be more “now” than an unsolicited $150 million sequel in which the present is literally reduced to a turf war between the past and the future.
And “Dark Fate” does everything in its power to embrace the 2019 of…
For decades, The Terminator has been thought of as Arnold Schwarzenegger’s franchise. He’s the guy who appears in five out of the six movies to date — and the sixth one was so desperate to include him even though he was Governor of California at the time that they made a CGI Ahhnuld who could fight Christian Bale. What Terminator: Dark Fate makes clear is that while the Terminator may be Schwarzenegger’s signature role, he wasn’t the key ingredient that made these movies really work. It was Linda Hamilton.

Die gute Nachricht zuerst: Terminator: Dark Fate ist von allem Fortsetzungen seit Terminator 2 definitiv die handwerklich sauberste. Vergleichen mit Terminator 3 oder 5 sind Look, inszenatorische Leistung und Produktionswert definitiv eine Stufe aufgestiegen. Die schlechte Nachricht: viel mehr Gutes gibt es hier nicht zu berichten.
Während der ersten Hälfte ist das hier einfach nur Terminator 2…einhalb. Nach einem durchaus eher überraschenden Opening, dass zwar direkt zum Einstieg massive Logikprobleme offenbart, immerhin aber nicht uninteressante Ansätze liefert, wird für die nächste Stunde praktisch jede einzelne Terminator-Checkbox abgehakt. Zwei Zeitreiseblasen, zwei Nackedeis, beide suchen Kleidung, eine Damsel in Distress, die wider Willen gerettet wird, während der Antagonist Dinge tötet. Alles wie gehabt. Nächste Station: Verfolgungsjagd auf dem Highway…
Das mag die sicherste…
A surprise screening. The Alamo and/or the studio tricked us into watching this. For real. And really lame.
My dad had been saying for over a decade how much he wanted to see T2 in a theater again. It's one of his all-time favorites. The moment this alleged T2 screening was announced I bought us tickets. This was a month ago. And so, after a month of anticipation, we're in the theater, stoked, then Arnold and Linda come onscreen and announce that we'll be watching Dark Fate instead, some of the first people ever to see it. My heart sank. This was supposed to be a special event for dad and me. And instead... like, hey, we know you ordered…
Oh yeah...this is it. That feeling I felt...from soo long ago. It's back.
The Rev 9 is the most formidable adversary yet. It's like a hybrid of Winter Soldier and Dark Knight's Bane in it's sense of unwavering purpose and fearless intensity. Gabriel Luna sets right what once went wrong. Terminators are scary because it takes a whole film to stop just one. The Rev 9 brings back the terror with a vengeance.
And all this darkness is balanced out with the light of humanity, the same humanity that Cameron injected into the first two. It is this humanity that gives the Terminator films thier soul.
The sense of loss returns. The stake feels real again as the Terminator free…
Terminator Dark Fate macht so viel falsch, dass ich gar nicht weis wo ich anfangen soll. Klar, die Effekte sind auf soliden Blockbuster-Niveau, das Ensemble gibt sich spürbar Mühe und… ja… da fällt mir auch schon nicht mehr viel Positives ein. Denn die Handlung ist ein ideenloser Aufguss, die Inszenierung viel zu hektisch/unübersichtlich und die Effekte driften immer wieder ins Uncanny Valley ab. Practical-Effects und die damit verbundene Griffigkeit sucht man hier vergebens- Stattdessen lässt Regisseur Tim Miller ungeniert die digitalen Gummimänner auf die Leinwand los und lässt sie sich mit zunehmender Spieldauer auch durch digitale Settings ballern. Die fragwürdigste Entscheidung stellt sich jedoch im Hinblick auf den überraschungsarme Story-Arc. Tatsächlich hätten sich unzählige Möglichkeiten geboten, die Storyline des 2ten…

Better than I was anticipating it to be... but still not that good. Arnold was genuinely great here. He had some pretty funny one liners and I was actually kinda invested in his story. Mackenzie Davis was pretty solid also, even if some of the decisions made with her character were quite dumb. Besides from those two things and some enjoyable action sequences I found myself really not caring about that much. Natalia Reyes was extremely bland and unlikeable, the whole story that’s being told isn’t that compelling (or necessary), and even Linda Hamilton isn’t that good. Again, I’ve seen worse, and it’s much better than some of the previous instalments, but it’s still not that great.
Has a lot of cool action scenes but I just couldn't get over how they gave the iconic Terminator a wife, son and a dog.
sometimes Film Twitter and cinephilia get too excited about things. not just positively (the endless stanning, the posting of 1 minute long clips of Marriage Story to Twitter the day it's released) but negatively as well. this is an old story: on the Internet everything is either the best thing ever or the worst thing ever. most of the time, movies are bad, but sometimes, movies are good, and once in awhile, movies are ok. here's an ok movie, made with sufficient competency and enough money so it looks good. it's a movie that i watched and thought, "yes i watched this" and didn't hate myself or the movie for watching. if there's a lesson i want people to take from the entirety of my critical oeuvre is that it's okay to like okay things.
Hard to like a movie that feels so contrived. All it has to say is woman are strong and there's a new John Connor in town. Even then, its blatant that Linda Hamilton and Arnold Schwarzenegger are the only redeeming hopes for the franchise. Grace and Dani were an afterthought once Sarah Connor showed up. I held out a glimmer of hope for the revelation about who Dani really is, but even that fell flat. All of the flash-forward/flashback scenes also felt unnatural. They had nothing to say and Dani as an adult was uninspiring.
Pushed beyond suspension of disbelief with an unnaturally flowing plot and irrational actions from the REV-9. The Terminator in Dark Fate doesn't act critically or…
Somehow, Terminator: Dark Fate manages to be both a supremely dumb film populated by mostly boring characters (Mackenzie Davis showed up to make a movie) with a plot poorly traced from a blueprint of Judgement Day's, AND probably the third best film in this entire sad franchise.
