The machines will rise.

It's been 10 years since John Connor saved Earth from Judgment Day, and he's now living under the radar, steering clear of using anything Skynet can trace. That is, until he encounters T-X, a robotic assassin ordered to finish what T-1000 started. Good thing Connor's former nemesis, the Terminator, is back to aid the now-adult Connor … just like he promised.

The first is the way the actors acted the relationship between Connor and…

Gimly 3/10

The worst _Terminator_ movie. Which seeing as what came after it is... Quite the burn. _Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible._

CinemaSerf 5/10

Is it in the song "American Pie" where Don McLean sings "Fire is the Devil's only friend"? Well, I hate to contradict him, but I am afraid time travel is also one of his allies - especially when it is handled in quite such a derivative fashion as this.

GenerationofSwine 1/10

Well... I kind of feel like giving this 10 stars based on Salvation and, especially, Genisys.
