I havent seen Genisys yet. I'll have to watch it soon. I know people really hate Genisys, but I enjoyed it. It felt a lot more like a Terminator film than the horrendous "Terminator Salvation", which felt like a Chris Nolan wannabe was making a Transformers movie! The story of Terminator Genisys was quite decent, and they also explained how the T-800 (Arnold) got old. We also see a few scenes form the first Terminator "recreated" for certain segments, so it had a little bit of a "Back to the Future" vibe as well. My only problem with Terminator Genisys was the casting. All three choices for the main roles (Sarah Connor, Kyle Reese, and John Connor) were completely wrong! Not criticizing the actors, but the fact that they were just not fit for the roles they were cast in. I didn't think Salvation felt like a Transformers movie at all. It felt like a Terminator movie crossed with Mad Max and I am fine with that. I had always wanted to see a movie made about the actual future that Kyle Reese is from, so I kind of took what I could get LOL. I actually think the movie is well made and very entertaining which is shocking considering it was made by McG.
Genisys was absolute nonsense with an unnecessarily convoluted screenplay but the biggest problem is how poorly made and emotionally dead the movie is. The story may feel more like a Terminator film than Salvation but the directing feels far less like a Terminator film imo. It felt like a bad Marvel film to me.
