Terminator Genisys [4K UHD]

What a surprise this movie was. Hadn't even heard about it. Watched it and was just blown away by the twist in the movie. Great cast. The terminator is showing his age a bit.

Terminator Genisys is the best Terminator movie since T2. In fact, Terminator Genisys actually should have been the true sequel to T2, because the plot fits in with T2 in a 100% perfect way. In comparison, T3 didn't fit in with T2. The plot from T3 essentially said "T2 didn't save the day the way all of us were told and there was no need to kill the T1000 and destroy Cyberdyne, because everything was going to happen anyways." The plot from Terminator Genisys really only acknowledges events from T1 and T2, not T3 and Terminator Salvation. The plot in Terminator Gensys is so well written that it left Terminator fans like me and my family stunned at times! SPOILER ALERT: Everything you read from this point on is a spoiler alert. The movie starts out with Kyle Reese explaining how Judgment Day occurred, and then how John Connor saved his life. Then there is a need for Kyle Reese to go back to 1984. All of this is expected and it is done very well. But then, as Kyle Reese is in the time machine going back to 1984, SkyNet attacks John Connor! This is a HUGE surprise! While traveling back in time, Kyle Reese sees a vision of something very unusual from when he was a child. This was an important moment in time , because what Kyle Reese saw was not actually from "his" past. The vision Kyle Reese saw was from an "alternate" version of 1984. The reason for this is because "someone" (who we later learn was John Connor) sent a T-800 Terminator to protect Sarah Connor when she was a child. One of the most stunning moments in the movie was in 1984 when the T-800 representing the T-800 we saw in Terminator 1 arrived. As expected, the T-800 goes around asking for clothes. But then, another T-800 shows up and says "You won't be needed them." A tough-as-nails Sarah Connor then uses a weapon with a futuristic design to kill the T-800 that previously tormented her in the first Terminator movie! Kyle Reese then arrives in 1984 from the future. As expected, Kyle Reese goes around looking for clothes. But then we get another stunning shocker! One of the police officers chasing after Reese is a T-1000! ... True Terminator fans like me and my family were just going CRAZY saying "WHAT THE HECK! The T-1000 isn't supposed to be in 1984!" The T-1000 actually doesn't last long in 1984, because unlike in 1991 the duo of Sarah Connor and her T-800 protector have had many years to make a trap for the T-1000. I won't spoil what that trap is, but lets just say it is awesome. At this point, Kyle Reese and Sarah Connor agree the best way to prevent SkyNet from winning is to travel 33 years into the future to the year 2017. When they arrive naked, they are arrested. But the T-800 has been waiting for 33 years to get them out of trouble. I have to say I was then truly stunned again when the movie shows that the reason the timeline is about 20 years behind schedule is because that little punk Danny Dyson continued his father's work at Cyberdyne. Remember how in T2 we saw that Miles Dyson was killed. Well, Danny Dyson must have done some research and helped his dad, because Danny eventually achieved the same things his super intelligent dad was working on. But what about how Miles Dyson and Cyberdyne had a CPU from the first Terminator 800, while Danny Dyson did not? Well, Danny was getting information from SkyNet in a different way. I am not willing to spoil who it was giving Danny this information, but when you see who it was, you will be STUNNED! In 2017, one of the police agents who helps get Sarah Connor and Kyle Reese out of trouble is John Connor. It is at this point when Kyle Reese learns he is the father of John. It is also at this point when one of the BIGGEST SHOCKERS of the movie occurs when the T-800 arrives! ... I'm not willing to spoil that part. ... But let's just say Kyle had warned Sarah it was possible for this type of thing to happen! This sets the plot for the rest of the movie. ... This review is getting long. If this isn't enough to encourage you to watch Terminator Genysis, nothing will be. This truly is the BEST Terminator movie since Terminator 2 and is in the same league as T1 and T2.

Very good movie!

This one really reminded me why I still buy 4K discs instead of just streaming! Video: The 4K transfer for Terminator: Genisys looks sharp, clean, and detailed, definitely a noticeable upgrade from the old Blu-ray. HDR10 adds real depth to the picture, with better contrast and richer colors, especially in the darker scenes and time-travel sequences. Black levels hold strong, and the overall image feels tighter and more polished. It’s not a reference-level transfer, but still a very solid one that looks great on a capable setup. Audio: The Dolby Atmos mix is good but on the quieter side. At 0.0 dB (reference level) it sounds balanced but a bit reserved — you can tell there’s more hiding in the mix. Once I pushed it up to around +2.0 to +3.0 dB above reference level, the whole soundtrack opened up. The dynamics hit harder, bass had more authority, and the surround and height effects really came alive. Dialogue stays crystal clear, and the big action scenes finally feel as intense as they should. Final Thoughts: Terminator: Genisys isn’t a “demo disc,” but it’s definitely a strong A/V performer when you turn it up a bit. The HDR and clean transfer make it worth watching on disc, and the Atmos track comes into its own when played above reference level. Played at +3.0 dB above reference on my 7.2.4 Dolby Atmos system: Denon AVR-X4500H (with Emotiva and Monolith amps) ELAC Debut 2.0 F5.2 fronts, C6.2 center, A4.2 front Atmos, and IC-DT61-W rear heights Two REL T/1003 10” subwoofers Panasonic UB420 4K player Compared to streaming, the disc wins easily — cleaner HDR, more punch, and far better immersion overall.

Great movie great actors

Fanboy & spoiler alert. The best movie of the whole canon though they did give too much away in the trailer. I believer the movie does a great job of incorporating aspects of all the movies as well as the TV series. Such as John no longer being the hero in the future from the ending of the TV show and the progression of the Terminators such as from T Salvation. Great action, good humor, and advancement of the story line. Time travel and changing futures and changing pasts are never easy to explain and can get lost in bad writing. As Sarah said "The future's not set. There's no fate but what we make for ourselves" so the possibilities are endless for a movie franchise. Many complain the explanation was convoluted and hard to understand but on further watching it is clear to see the writers worked hard to make it work and it does. Many also complain about the acting but it was done well. Could they have picked somebody other than Jai Courtney, sure but he did fine and Emilia Clark did excellent as a young Sarah. So don't compare them to the actors from the earlier movies and TV show because that usually never helps. So yes I am saddened at all the hate and that the sequels seem to be on hold. But then it is only entertainment and I am only an old fanboy.

Very good 3d effects

Great movie

Excelente versión, el steelbook está muy padre, trae bastantes extras y versión digital, cabe mencionar que el código no es compatible con moviesanywhere, se puede canjear en itunes o vudu, así que si eres usuario apple no será mucho problema, en cuanto a la película me gustó y por eso la compro, se que no es la mejor pero esta bien, la recomiendo

Très bon film

Bon DVD article reçu en bon état .Je recommande.

Produto muito bom, bem feito, pela foto a cabeça da a impressão de ser maior, mas gostei bastante, a caixa do produto chegou um pouco amassada o que é curioso pois a caixa de papelão onde ele veio chegou intacta, acredito que amassou antes de ser embalada. Tirando fiquei bem satisfeito.

A great story with magnificent effects.
