“Terminator: Dark Fate” synopsis

Danny, a 21-year-old woman working at a car factory in Mexico City, is attacked by The Terminator REV-9 along with her younger brother Miguel. The person who protected them was Grace, an enhanced soldier also sent from the future. Danny, Miguel, and Grace barely manage to escape from the factory by car. Sarah Connor was waiting on the highway for REV-9 to pursue her relentlessly. She has lived her life with The Terminator as her nemesis, and after engaging in a fierce battle with REV-9, she says, "I'll be back," and leaves the scene. Sarah rejoins the group and confesses that she has received a mysterious email from someone with information about The Terminator. Grace discovers that the source is El Paso, Texas, and the three decide to cross the border from Mexico. However, they were wanted by REV-9, who was disguised as a Border Patrol agent. And it was that man who was waiting for Sarah and Danny in El Paso...

A fusion of “legends” such as Cameron and new era talent



To be honest, when many fans heard that a new version of `` The Terminator '' (1984) would be released in 2019, they probably thought, ``Here we go again.'' However, after hearing these words, he may have changed his mind. ``James Cameron declares `` Terminator 2: Judgment Day '' a ``legitimate sequel.''''


Additionally, Cameron returns to production for the first time since ``Terminator 2: Judgment Day '' (1991). Not only Arnold Schwarzenegger who played The Terminator and T-800 but also Linda Hamilton who played Sarah Connor made a comeback. Many people who initially had a negative reaction must have trembled, thinking, "Finally..." The legends gathered together for the first time in 28 years.


``Terminator 2: Judgment Day'' is a masterpiece that ``changed the destiny'' of movie history. It became the ``world's biggest hit movie'' of that year and continues to receive overwhelming support from people. Since it's such a legendary work, everyone may have mixed feelings about writing a sequel to it, but if the creator is involved, they're determined to see it through. ``Terminator: Dark Fate'' (2019) can be said to be a special movie, including the excessive expectations and anxiety of the viewer.

Cameron directly entrusted the director's chair to Toshihide, who worked on the opening titles for `` The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo '' (2011) and broke the record for highest box office revenue for an R-rated movie with `` Deadpool '' (16). Tim Miller. David S. Goyer, who wrote the `` The Dark Knight '' trilogy, was invited to serve as the main screenwriter. Both are popular creators of our time who took the world by storm with their hero movies. Even if you're not a fan of the series, you'll be curious to see what kind of chemical change the team-up between them and Cameron will bring about.


By the way, the music is credited to Junkie XL of `` Mad Max: Fury Road '' (15), and Mackenzie Davis of ` `Blade Runner 2049' ' (17) is credited as the performer. Many of the staff and cast members who have been involved in "one of the representative films" are involved. One of the attractions behind ``The Terminator'' is the theme of ``confrontation between old and new,'' and that structure was established at the time of the production members.


However, while the content is full of love for the series, it is finished with a feeling of the arrival of a new era. This time, we will introduce the links with ``The Terminator'' and ``Terminator 2: Judgment Day'' and the evolution of this work without spoilers.


Also, this time I watched this film using the "IMAX laser" that was installed at TOHO Cinemas Shinjuku from November 2nd. At the end of this article, I would like to mention the visual and audio appeal that is unique to this screening format.
