It's not. It's another horrible mess. The first Terminator film is a masterpiece, the second bloated but great fun, and the third well constructed but pretty dull. The others are complete dog's breakfasts.

I like all the Terminator films, 3 is definitely the worst, I was surprised how much I enjoyed Genisys

I agree. 3 is the weakest. That said its anything but dull. The second one is a masterpiece. And the first one is slightly overrated. Still brilliant but not a masterpiece. Salvation is excellent and Genysis is very good.

I thought Genysis was both rubbish and fun at the same time. Plot wise it was terrible but Arnie made it fun.

Salvation was just a misguided mess.

As for part 3? I love it. Had some great set pieces.

The first two are seminal. I regard the others as just cinematic fan-fiction, and 3 and Genysis are a lot of fun on that level. Never been bothered with Salvation, looks dreary, don't like Bale and no Arnie? Be off with you!

I agree. I also didn't like Sam Worthington and, in terms of direction, thought MgG made better films with Charlie's Angels!

They've made a whole bunch of sequels and prequels to Alien too. Go figure.
