Customer Ratings & Reviews

I loved this movie! I thought they did a great job of staying true to what made Terminator special. T1 and T2 are classics but Dark Fate is easily the best Terminator since then. It stays true to form and retains that feel and tone of the first two. From the beginning you’re in for an exhilarating ride. Terminator is once again a thriller/action movie with just the right amount of comedy to provide you with a breather. I loved the new cast such as Grace and the Rev-9 and Arnold is a living legend that finds himself in a new and interesting role. The return of Sarah Connor is great. She was there from the beginning and her absence was felt in previous installments. Overall this is a great movie and one that I hope can launch Terminator into a new renaissance be it through feature length films or streaming series’. Terminator: Dark Fate is a worthy successor to Terminator 2: Judgement Day.

This is my new favorite Terminator movie! I'll all Terminator movies are excellent! This one has a new twist. A new Terminator with a "Split Personality"! The beginning is a recap of what happened in the year 1984 with a new twist that's never been shown. All action! Excellent actors and actresses! Excellent character development! A combination of the new and old Terminator movies. But, a brand new story and plot line! A different type of protector against the Terminator from the future. Strong female cast and actresses! Relentless Pursuits! Excellent fight scenes without all the blood and gore. Excellent car chase scenes and stunts that rivals The Island's Highway car chase scene. A definite must have for your Terminator collection or for your first Terminator movie. Five stars and every category imaginable! A girl just happens to be at the right place and right time but also the wrong place in the wrong time! Definitely five stars in every category, cinematography, character development, actor and actress choice, action scenes, stunts, villains and heroes, unexpected Heroes, and unexpected various twists from the previous Terminator movies!

Well James Cameron went back on his Original plan to fix the Franchise, & cause of this, i'd just go & grab Genesis anyways, even after it flopping... Dark Fate was suppose to fix what was wrong with Genesis, & instead it just copied it, & didn't really improve anything over the Genesis movie... Anyone wanna know the New Terminator Type? It's a Carbon Based Terminator from a different Model... Hence the more Black or Charcoal Black Coloring... I got this idea from a scene where they mentioned something about carbon material in the movie... Movie starts off great, & falls flat right away, from there you could pretty much predict the whole movie... The Line Arnold Gives when you first see him in the Movie, & he says the name Madeio or whatever you call the kid? Kind of made 0 to no sense to me, & this Line made so little sense that it pretty much kills the whole Timeline Continuity & Franchise... o_@ Arnold also plays a more family friendly kind of Jerk in the movie, too No idea what that is about... I give the movie like a 3 out of 5 Stars, for wanting to be better then Genesis, but then not really delivering the material to do better, & actually just doing the same... My Advice? Either stick to the 1st 3 Terminator Movies, or grab them all... After 3rd Movie, there just isn't any point to picking up only 1 or 2 of them... So mise well get them all... No??? PS: I recommended the Movie, simply because I don't think we are getting anything better, or we probably won't get anything better, but hey, I could always be wrong, too. There is also the fact that if you saw Genesis, you mise well see this, too... No??

Sarah Connor returns with new help from the future to battle an all new terminater in this action packed film.

Feature: Enjoyed the return of Sarah Connor. However, not her best performance like before. Maybe a bit rusty from her absence. Pros: -Picture; HDR. -Sound; Atmos. Sound was full & strong but lack some channel precision. -Digital Copy; Yes, full version with Dolby Vision & Atmos. -Slipcover; No but steel-case instead. Cons: -3D; no availability like Genesis. -Gear used for sound & visuals: LG 65’ C6P 4k/3D passive OLED (manually calibrated) 9.2 Onkyo RZ + pre amp for 7.2.4/11.2 (integrated calibrated then manually tweeted with SPL sound level meter & balance/adjust for full dynamic range) Klipsch Reference Premier towers center sides rears dual R112SW subs Polk Audio MC80 8’ quad in-ceiling heights Oppo 4K UDP-203 Monster cables: Premium Black Platinum HDR HDMIs, THX Audio RCA, Digital Subwoofer Cables & Fiber Optic Ultra 1000 Monoprice 14 gauge awg copper speaker wire Nakamichi Speaker Plugs Auralex Acoustic Isolation platforms

This movie rocks! It’s a Mustbuy! It sets the path for an Origins sequel.

Love the story from the 1st film all the way to this last New one. Hope they keep it going cuz i’ll be watching as long as Arnold is alive & can keep making these films

This turned out better than some would have you believe. I enjoyed it and thought it had some great action sequences. Looks and sounds awesome in 4K.

This movie was amazing and looks great on my oled tv. The artwork on the steelbook case looks great!

The only one that I liked better was the first one. I liked this one as well as the second one but I didn't like any of the others.

As a fan of the Terminator series, this one did not disappoint. I was shocked at the story but the movie was still awesome. Love the steel book artwork also!

This one made so much more sense than the last one I was so happy to see Sarah Conner again.

Interesting take on this terminator film but I can say I liked every bit of this film

One of my all-time favorite movies. Great cast!!!!

This film didn't get a fair shake because of the three awful "sequels" to T2, but this is the best terminator film since 1991. Give this one a shot. It tells a compelling story, is well paced, great action and special effects and well acted.

No matter the direction of the "Terminator" movies, I've always appreciated the actors, and direction of the various films. The fact that it brings back Schwarzenegger and Hamilton adds to the overall story. It shows that Sarah Connor is still " fighting the good fight". Throughout the story, you see how the Terminator has become "more human" after living as part of a family. I appreciated both the character development and progression of story. The idea that someone/something from the future could alter the past never fails to interest me. I would recommend this film to all who enjoy Sci-Fi.

Dark Fate is a welcomed addition to a franchise that probably should have ended in 1991. (Actually, the Sarah Connor Chronicles was also great, but apparently nobody watched it, so...) Although it's certainly not as good as T1 or T2, it gives us a lot of the same elements that made those movies great. Good actions scenes with a sense of inevitability as the REV-9 bears down. Each fight features a different enough environment and obstacles to avoid feeling repetitive. The acting is solid and the characters are more than just bodies with guns. There is certainly some world-building that feels like it was cut or missing - characters the movie acts like we should know but never explains and a pretty threadbare hand-waving to justify what Sarah Connor has been up to and why Arnie is there but obviously old now. Still, the nostalgia of seeing Linda Hamilton and Arnie back at it allows the movie not to dwell too much on these issues and deliver a fun dose of Terminator goodness. Mackenzie Davis and Natalia Reyes shine as the new generation in the fight against the machines, holding their own along with our old favorites and Gabriel Luna delivers a very convincing performance as the ever-pursuing danger. The story goes that even with Skynet stopped, another AI simply takes its place and the world once against falls to its fate. There is a ring a plausibility to the idea that stopping one AI doesn't stop the overall problem of AI. In the late 80's, AI was still a pretty sci-fi concept with enough science to back up its possibility. Now AI seems like a foregone conclusion - it will be made, we just haven't managed it yet. So, the focus of this story (similar to T1) is more just about the survival of someone who can give humanity and fighting chance after the machines emerge. There isn't a grand plan to stop this apocalypse and save the world, but just because the machine wreak havoc does not mean humanity is done for. It means that for the story to work we have to care about the characters, not just how cool the explosions and punchy robots look. Ultimately, this seems like it would be a good note on which to close the series. Yes, technology will keep advancing. And may the future is inevitable. But still humans fight for survival because that's who we are. Of course, it also leaves that sweet sweet opening for whatever cash-grab addition someone wants to try next, but that doesn't really mar this movie. Generally, as long as you know what you're going into - a decent action movie that's fun but nothing special - it's quite enjoyable and definitely worth watching.

After all the criticism that this movie received I thought that I would be watching the worst movie ever to be made in the history of mankind. I personally enjoyed it for what it was, is it "woke"? maybe, but I've learn to accept that given the times that we live in now. The action is great, it has great cgi and it contains a scene as soon as the movie starts that catches you off guard (perhaps that's why a little of people were upset). Its a movie that you're not suppose to take serious and accepted for what it is, a over the top action flick starring Arnold Schwarzenegger who provides a little bit of comedy relief lol.

Terminator: Dark Fate is just a very entertaining blockbuster. The action is really good. The locales look nice. There's a nice violence-to-story ratio. Decent dialogue with a string of some very funny lines. I noticed that a lot of reviews have criticized this movie for having the same basic structure of the original films. I suppose this is true, but I found the movie did a good enough job that it didn't bother me. However, there was one moment of synchronicity with the first film that I could've done without. I can't go into details but this movie does one thing that some of recent action/adventure films set decades after the original or originals do that is kind of annoying and a bit jaded. Linda Hamilton makes this film. She is now tough, doesn't give-a-frick old lady and steals whatever scene she is in. Some of the best parts is her interaction with Mackenzie Davis' Grace, who is an augmented soldier from the future. They both have the same goal but different attitudes and their verbal sparring is fun. The new antagonist the Rev-9 is a combination of the original Terminator and Terminator 2's the T-1000. Despite the retreading, he actually feels fresh. He's got a pretty neat ability and his Terminator form may be the creepiest of them. The mannerisms of his human form (Gabriel Luna who was Ghost Rider on Agents of Shield) may be too similar to Robert Patrick's T-1000 for some, but Luna does a great job in the role, switching from emotionless machine to someone charismatic who can blend in. Definitely liked this better than T3 and Salvation, and I was one of those people who liked the latter. (Haven't seen Genesys, yet.) But, I admit this doesn't quite have the specific James Cameron feel of the first two films. As I said, this is a blockbuster and in terms of just being entertaining and not being innovative it does what I was looking for. 248 people found this helpful

I went to see this expecting another letdown, but boy was I surprised! Excellent story and fantastic special affects that were used to enhance the story line rather than replace it. If this had been the third movie, the franchise would have moved in a new direction, but I think it is too late. The box office total was very disappointing. My only complaint is the horrible language which was most of the time unneeded.
