terminator salvation summary the film started with dwight in prison, on death row. he was thinking deeply when his visitor- a woman inflicted with cancer (i don't know their relationship)- came to him to have his consent to participate in a genetics whatever research. the plan was to kill him and donate his body to the research agency. at first, he didn't want to but he was convinced by the woman after they kissed- that was the payment for his signature.
the year was 2003. after everything blurred from his eyesight, the date turned to 2018- a post-apocalytic scene. it was after the judgment day when the machines and man had war- the war was still going on. john connor appeared, their team attacked a skype (machines) headquarters where they found human locked in cages like animals; they were in for TEST. later in the story, the humans were kept to be experimented by machines to be like them. more likely, like dwight who was human but his insides were not, he was made a human machine literally.
so finding about the ongoings but unaware of the reasons, john connor went to the human main headquarter at the sea to ask what was the situation. turned out, they found something a signal that could disassemble the evil machines. john volunteered to lead the experiment of the signals.
meanwhile, dwight woke up fifteen years later from his death on 2003. he met kyle during his wandering in the new world. although confused and not human (physically- inside), he still had his heart to offer him to feel humanity. they became friends unknowing of their supposed-to-be enemy-relationship. they got separated when they were attacked by a titanic terminator, capturing people and bringing them to one of their main headquarters for research maybe.
dwight met another lady whom he saved from men eager to rape her. she fell in love with him, both weren't aware that dwight was a cyborg-terminator, destined to kill human. she brought him to their hq. outside the hq were magnetic-traps/bombs, dwight's body attracted them and triggered them for explosion. because of that, dwight was exposed, his intestines were not slimy, they were mechanical machines the reason why he didn't want to eat when he was presented food.
he was captured by men of john, tied like an enemy but wasn't yet disassembled for questioning, they asked him what he was and he was convinced he was human until he saw what he was a machine a terminator. john and his men believed he was sent to the hq to terminate them all but dwight denied of everything, stating he was human. SHE only believed in him.
SHE was in love with him, so she formulated a plan to help him escape. she let him go and they ran outside the hq, they were greeted by bullets and bombs. she was captured by john's men and dwight somehow escaped to the river. john went to him and they chitchatted. dwight convinced john that he knew reese, that he was taken by the terminators and locked in their hq. he promised him he would locate reese and help john get reese out from the skype, he could do that because he was a terminator himself, so it was easy for him to enter and manipulate skype. john let him go, giving him a device so they could contact each other.
dwight penetrated through skype, went to the master bedroom and the computer told him about what he was, how he was made, etc. he was made to be a terminator, something they (who the f are they) created to (what?) impress humans. he also learned that the signal they-john's team- found on one of skype's hqs was a custom-designed device meant to trace the main hq of human. at the same time of his acquiring the truth, the humans main hq was visited by a strong terminator and annihilated the place.
meanwhile, john was outside the skype waiting for dwight's text message as to where reese was. finally he received what he wanted and immediately entered skype using high-techniqued overriding device to open the gate. he managed to be invincible and reached the main building. dwight chose a path, either to be human or a machine, he chose to be the weaker form, human penetrated the mothercomputer and stopped some terminators, then smashed the screen with a table.
he went to search for john who was being battered by a terminator. john somehow managed to get away from the machine and went to free the prisoners, including reese. he found the nuclear-potions room and wired the chemicals with explosives. the machine reached him and they fought. he was about to be killed, thanks to dwight, he was able to put a fight with the machine until they killed it. they made it outside skype, the planes were waiting for them and they evacuated the place. set the explosives to fire and watched skype went to ashes.
reese was john's father, they stared at each other when they saw each one. his father was younger at that time, one of them was from another time, either john was from the future of reese was from the past.
john's heart was failing because of the injury he received from the fight with the terminator dwight offered his heart to john, stating that. 'this is my second chance'. an operation done, john was saved, dwight for the second time had blurring eyesight.
lessons: this is one of the rare movies that tells you, 'don't judge the person by his
inside'. reaction: this sucks
