Synopsis: When John Connor, leader of the human resistance, sends Sgt. Kyle Reese back to 1984 to protect Sarah Connor and safeguard the future, an unexpected turn of events creates a fractured timeline.
Reaction: They seriously need to stop trying to one-up themselves in this series. The idea of revisiting the first movie sounds cool, but the way this is handled, it just gets needlessly confusing and ridiculous. And what's up with John Connor? Seriously?!
Personal Rating: 4/10 |

Random Trivia For This Title: - Jason ClarkeJason Clarke is the sixth actor to play John Connor in the many portrayals of the character. This has lead to people referring to him as the "Rusty Griswold" of the [Terminator] series as five different actors have portrayed that role in the many films.
- The scene where Sarah and Kyle arrive in 2017 bare naked in the middle of a freeway was an obvious nod to [Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles] Pilot (#1.1), where Sarah, John, and Cameron arrive in 2007 in the middle of a freeway bare naked.
- There are a few subtle hints at the beginning of the film that indicate that the prologue already takes place in a different timeline (i.e. it is not the exact same future as seen in The Terminator): Kyle Reese is saved by John Connor from a Terminator in a sewer, whereas in The Terminator, he states that John freed him from a factory where he was enslaved by Skynet. Also, Kyle still has the photograph of Sarah Connor before he is about to time travel. In The Terminator it is established that this photo had burned long before he did that.
- Even though most of the cast play characters with American accents minus Arnold SchwarzeneggerArnold Schwarzenegger (T-800), most of the cast are not American themselves. Emilia ClarkeEmilia Clarke (Sarah Connor) and Matt SmithMatt Smith (T-5000/Skynet) are British, Jai CourtneyJai Courtney (Kyle Reese) and Jason ClarkeJason Clarke (John Connor/ T-3000) are Australian, Byung-hun LeeByung-hun Lee (T-1000) is South Korean and Dayo OkeniyiDayo Okeniyi (Danny Dyson) is Nigerian. Only J.K. SimmonsJ.K. Simmons (Detective O'Brien) and Courtney B. VanceCourtney B. Vance (Miles Dyson) are the only two real Americans in the main cast.
- James CameronJames Cameron gave advice to producers David Ellison and David Goldberg on how they could use a 67 year old Arnold SchwarzeneggerArnold Schwarzenegger in the film, by stating that the living human tissue that is grown on The Terminators, giving them their human forms is not actually synthetic, but organic and could therefore age and that they could have a Terminator sent back through time, missed his target and ended up living in society and due to his brain, which is a neural processor (a learning computer) he could actually become more human and went along without getting discovered.
- This is the first film that Arnold SchwarzeneggerArnold Schwarzenegger is not "Terminator" in the end credits. Rather, he is named "Guardian".

- This is the first film in the series to not feature animatronic Terminators created by special effects artist (and dear friend of Arnold SchwarzeneggerArnold Schwarzenegger) [?] Stan Winston, due to his death in 2008. Instead, the animatronics were created by effects studio Legacy Effects, a company formed out of Winston's former workshop staff.

James CameronJames Cameron had first approached them to do The Terminator and they were very interested. However, the only stipulation was that James CameronJames Cameron did not direct the film. Since this was Cameron's pet project at the time and he wanted to direct the film, he turned down their offer.
- Paramount greenlit two sequels to this film before it even opened because regardless of how well or poor it does at the Box Office or with critic reviews, making this the first installment of a new trilogy of [Terminator] films.

- Although the phrase "Come with me if you want to live" is spoken in all four Terminator films previously (Kyle Reese- The Terminator, T-800- Terminator 2: Judgment Day, John Connor- Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines and Kyle Reese- Terminator Salvation), this entry marks the first time Sarah Connor uses this dialogue.
