In this new chapter we get a wildly different Terminator film; dark, gritty and nightmarish. Gone are the days of the lone hunter, replaced with a post-apocalyptic hell rank with death, desperation and viscous, cold machines. I love dystopian visions and to have such a world infused with terminators is fairly awesome to be blunt. Shot is drained, almost monochromatic colours, the departure from the originals is bold and exciting.
The visuals are very nice, the atmosphere is good, and the depiction of the future war is very realistic i think. More realistic than the future war scenes in T1. We are now at the future war against the machines and see what happens there.
But overall, it feels like a very good episode of a Terminator series, not like a sequel of the first movies.
Decent writing and great acting. The cast was likable, they did a pretty good representation on the characters.
Terminator skynet rising is an enjoyable film to watch.

A decent acting, a strong storyline, some "rough" violence, sums up what we get in this return of the exterminator.
This one is pretty action-packed right from the jump. The opening shows our protagonista in Colombia taking out a kingpin (references to scarface) Rather than being strictly a revenge/vigilante exploit film though, the character development is enough to really feel the bond between the exterminator and is uncle, and makes it easy to root for Jake as he's blastin' his way through the city.
8.5/10.
