I-Terminator Usindiso yifilimu yokuqala kuyo yonke iSaga yeTerminator ukuba ingabandakanywa Arnold Schwarzenegger (yenza i-cameo encinci), ngokunjalo eyokuqala eyenzeka kwikamva le-post-apocalyptic elawulwa nguSkynet, ayivuli kuphela uluhlu lweqonga elitsha kodwa kunye nokuthatha indawo yesamente sonke.
Ngaloo ngqiqo, Usindiso lwe-Terminator kufuneka lufundwe (kwaye lubonwe, ngokuqinisekileyo) njengokuqaliswa kwakhona kwe-franchise yonke, yahlulwe kwabathathu bangaphambili (nangona ingeyiyo ngokupheleleyo kwisavenge sesithathu). Kwi-tape ekhokelwa yi-ofisi yebhokisi mcg, i Ihlabathi litshatyalaliswe ngokupheleleyo kukuqhushumba kwenyukliya okubangelwe nguSkynet, kwaye ukuxhathisa, akuphelanga kwaphela kwaye kusekho nemithombo engacingelekiyo, iyaqhubeka ukulwa kuyo yonke imida. Ngokwenxalenye yayo, i-cybernetics Skynet ine iinqanawa, izithuthuthu, ii-eels zombane, iirobhothi ezinkulu kwaye ngokucacileyo iiTerminators ezizulazula kwisixeko esitshabalalisayo ezingela abantu. I-hook ye-movie yileyo Skynet sele iqalile ukubamba abantu, ngeenjongo zokulinga kwaye ayicacanga ngokupheleleyo.
Ngale ndlela, ifilimu ngumthendeleko ocacileyo wemiphumo ekhethekileyo, ezininzi eziphumelele kakhulu, kodwa oko kuhlala kunjalo. Imbali ingabanini Iintloko ezininzi kwiiTerminators ezikhokelwa nguJames Cameron: ukusuka kwi-Terminator elungileyo engenakuphepheka ngokuchasene ne-Terminator embi, kwimfuno yokukhusela intsapho yakwaConnor, ngeemeko eziphindaphindiweyo, ezifana nesiganeko sokugqibela, okwenzeka kwindawo yokucokisa, njengoko kwenzeka kwi-Terminator 2.
Kwaye oko ngaphaya kweenjongo ezilungileyo zikaMcG, iskripthi kunye nebali libi. Umsonto oqhelekileyo uyasilela ukukholisa okanye ukubamba, kwaye amabali amaninzi abaliswa ngeenxa zonke awabonakali aya ndawo. Ngokuphathelele kwiinkqubo, ubukho nje be UChristian Bale Ndandinemincili, kodwa xa ubona I-Terminator Usindiso uyaqonda ukuba Bale de The Dark Knight iminyaka elula kude nomsebenzi wakhe kule movie. Abanye abadlali bagqitywe ngothotho lwe abadlali abangazange baphulaphule abaphulaphuli okanye ibali. Okuphela komntu ophakamisa inqanaba lokudlala nguSam Worthington, osindileyo owothukileyo ovuka phakathi kwemfazwe ngokuchasene noomatshini.
Kusenokuthethwa okuninzi malunga I-Terminator Usindiso (imiboniso ebaxekileyo, iingxoxo ezenziweyo nezingenakwenzeka) kodwa ndiqinisekile ukuba i-tape iya kuqhekeza iofisi yebhokisi kwii-cinema, kwaye inike ukuphakama le tetraloji (ewe, i-3 ngaphezulu ezayo) ilandela ikhondo layo elibhekiselele kwimpumelelo yorhwebo, igalelo lanto ngaphandle kwemali.
