Review: Terminator Genisys

Posted on July 3, 2015 by adamryen

Terminator Genisys. The Terminator franchise has a somewhat troubled past, with its last two outings (Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines and Terminator Salvation) being relative flops. It’s also really difficult to make a franchise based on time travel, since … Continue reading →
