The fourth installment of the Terminator series follows an adult John Connor (played by Christian Bale)
as he attempts to organize a human resistance force which could prove
to be humankind's last true hope for survival in the war against their
intelligent robot overlords. Opening in the year 2018, Terminator
Salvation finds John Connor's certainty about the future shaken by the
sudden appearance of a mysterious stranger named Marcus Wright (Sam Worthington),
whose last memory is of sitting on death row and awaiting execution.
Unable to determine whether Marcus was sent from the future or rescued
from the past, Connor begins to wonder whether there is still any hope
left for the human race as the robots grow more powerful and aggressive
than ever before. It appears that Skynet is preparing a devastating
final attack designed to eliminate the human resistance forces once and
for all, leaving Connor and Marcus with no choice but to strike back at
the cybernetic heart of Skynet's operations. Once there, the two
battle-scarred soldiers discover a devastating secret regarding the
potential annihilation of all humankind. Anton Yelchin fills Michael Biehn's shoes as a young Kyle Reese in what is planned to be a new Terminator trilogy from director McG (Charlie's Angels). ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
