    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Old recordings of Sarah Connor are played in the film, with lines nearly word-for-word from Terminator - tuhoaja (1984). Linda Hamilton voiced the lines herself in an uncredited role.
    • Goofs
      In the first Terminator - tuhoaja (1984), Kyle Reese explains to Sarah that he was born in the camps and bred as a soldier of the resistance. In Salvation, we can clearly see that he was just an ordinary civilian survivor of the war and did not become an actual resistance soldier until he was a young man. This is not necessarily a goof. He could have been exaggerating to impress her in the first movie. Alternately, the time travels of the sequels could have changed the events of his early life.
    • Quotes

      John Connor: The devil's hands have been busy. What is it?

      Kate Connor: It's real flesh and blood, though it seems to heal itself quickly. The heart is human and very powerful. The brain, too, but with a chip interface.

      Marcus Wright: What have you done to me?

      Kate Connor: It has a hybrid nervous system. One human cortex, one machine.

      Marcus Wright: Blair, what have they done?

      John Connor: Who built you?

      Marcus Wright: My name is Marcus Wright.

      John Connor: You think you're human?

      Marcus Wright: I am human.

    • Alternate versions
      Released on Blu-Ray as an R-rated director's cut with about three minutes of extra footage:
      • When John Connor and company infiltrate the underground base, a sentry robot pops up and is quickly dispatched. This scene was present in the teaser trailer.
      • Extra dialogue between Connor and Ashdown on the submarine. Ashdown points a gun at Connor's head and says he doesn't believe in prophecy.
      • Blair bathes in the rain for a moment then sees Marcus looking at her. She covers herself and Marcus turns away.
      • The scene with the two marauders is more violent. Marcus is actually showing stabbing one of them in the shoulder with a screwdriver, the fistfight with the second guy is longer, and a bloody impact is seen when Blair shoots one of the marauders in the leg.
      • Longer dialogue from Blair during the campfire scene with Marcus.
      • The sequence of the man being shot trying to scale the fence at the Skynet processing center is slightly longer.
      • John Connor's speech to the remaining resistance forces is extended.
      • The fight between the T-800 and Marcus is a few seconds longer.
      • Marcus trying to revive John Connor is slightly longer.

    Stop expecting the greatness of T2......Better then T3 and Genisys
    Terminator Salvation gets panned left and right.....but let me first say this is way more better then T3 and Genisys by miles.

    Not only is it a serious terminator movie.....its more faithful to the first 2, yes it has plot holes and not die hard terminator violence but what do you expect when companies are trying to make everything PG13 for money.

    This is the Terminator movie you get, to throwbacks to Guns n Rose you could be mine to a CGI arnie wreaking havoc, yes it could of been done better but some of it is actually really good, just accept and stop expecting the greatness of T2, that was cameron and this is MCG two different directors.

    The acting is good, don't know what everyone is going on about with Bale being a weak connor when he is perfect for the role, yelchin plays a fantastic kyle reese and sam worthington is great as marcus.

    Relax, watch and enjoy a good summer action movie with no expectations, the opening helicopter scene is a work of art.

    TS - 7/10
