Terminator Salvation yifilimu yokuqala kuyo yonke isaga seTerminator ukungafakwa Arnold Schwarzenegger (yenza i-cameo encane), kanye ne- okokuqala okwenzeka kuleso sikhathi esizayo se-post-apocalyptic esilawulwa yi-Skynet, lokho akugcini ngokuvula umlandeli wesiteji esisha kepha futhi ukufaka esikhundleni sabo bonke abalingisi.
Ngalesi sizathu, I-Terminator Salvation kufanele ifundwe (futhi ibonwe, kunjalo) njengokuqalisa kabusha i-franchise yonke, kwehlukaniswe kokuthathu okudlule (yize kungenjalo ngokuphelele kwisitolimende sesithathu). Kutheyipu eqondiswe yihhovisi lebhokisi McG, the Umhlaba ukhungathekiswe ngokuphelele yiziqhumane zenuzi ezabangelwa yiSkynet, futhi ukumelana, okunganqamuki ngokuphelele futhi kusenemithombo ethile engacabangi, kuyaqhubeka ukulwa kuzo zonke izinhlangothi. Ngokwengxenye yayo, i-cybernetics Skynet inayo imikhumbi, izithuthuthu, ama-eel kagesi, amarobhothi amakhulu futhi kusobala ukuthi amaTerminator azulazula edolobheni elibhujisiwe lizingela abantu. Ingwegwe ye-movie yilokho Skynet isiqalile ukubamba abantu, ngenhloso yokuhlola futhi akucaci ngokuphelele.
Ngale ndlela, ifilimu iwumkhosi ocacile wemiphumela ekhethekile, eminingi iphumelele kakhulu, kepha lokho kuhlala kunjalo. Umlando ungumnikazi ukunqekuzisa amakhanda okuningi kumaTerminator okuqondiswe nguJames Cameron: kusuka ku-Terminator enhle engenakugwemeka ngokumelene ne-Terminator embi, kuya esidingweni sokuvikela umndeni wakwaConnor, ngokusebenzisa izimo eziphindaphindayo, njengesigcino sokugcina, esenzeka endaweni yokucwenga, njengoba nje kwenzeka ku-Terminator 2.
Futhi yilokho ngale kwezinhloso ezinhle zikaMcG, iskripthi nendaba kubi. Intambo ejwayelekile yehluleka ukukholisa noma ukubamba, futhi izindaba eziningi ezikhulunywa nxazonke kubonakala ngathi aziyi ndawo. Mayelana nokuqhubeka, ubukhona nje be- Christian Bale Ngangijabule, kepha lapho ubona Terminator Salvation uyabona ukuthi Bale de I-Dark Knight kukhanya iminyaka kude nomsebenzi wakhe kule movie. Bonke abanye abadlali baphothulwa ngochungechunge lwe- abalingisi abangaze balalele izethameli noma indaba. Ukuphela komuntu okhuphuka ezingeni lokulingisa nguSam Worthington, osindile othukile ovuka phakathi nempi elwa nemishini.
Kuningi okungashiwo ngakho Terminator Salvation (izigcawu ezishisiwe, izingxoxo zokufakelwa nezingacabangi) kepha ngiyaqiniseka ukuthi iteyipu izokwephula ibhokisi lamahholo kumabhayisikobho, futhi ikhiqize le tetralogy (yebo, kuseza ezinye ezintathu) landela inkambo yayo ebheke empumelelweni yezentengiselwano, inganikeli lutho ngaphandle kwemali.
