Who intervenes to save Kyle Reese from a Terminator?
Skynet was initially created as a sophisticated computer program to manage missile defense, but on August 29th, 1997, it became self-aware and deemed humanity as a threat to its existence. In a grim turn of events, Skynet launched devastating nuclear strikes against major human population centers, resulting in the tragic loss of 3 billion lives in what is infamously known as Judgement Day. As the war between machines and humans raged on, Skynet developed infiltrators known as Terminators, designed to mimic human beings.
Amidst the chaos, John Connor emerged as the pivotal leader of the Resistance, instilling hope and strategies for survival among the beleaguered human forces. Fast forward to 2029, John Connor (Jason Clarke) spearheads a colossal offensive against Skynet, confident that the rogue program has concealed a secret weapon to fend off his forces. In a desperate attempt to thwart the Resistance, Skynet activates its time machine to send a T-800 Terminator back to 1984 with the intention of assassinating John’s mother, Sarah Connor (Emilia Clarke).
Understanding the gravity of the situation, John’s loyal comrade, Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney), volunteers for the time-travel mission to safeguard Sarah. As Kyle is transported back, he has unsettling visions of his past and a warning from his childhood: “Genisys is Skynet. When Genisys comes online, Judgement Day begins. Go to San Francisco in 2017, and you kill Skynet before it is born.”
Upon arrival in 1984, they find that Sarah, along with her Guardian, Pops (Arnold Schwarzenegger), a reprogrammed T-800 who was assigned to protect her since she was a child, have successfully incapacitated the T-800 sent by Skynet. However, they soon face a relentless T-1000 (Byung-Hun Lee), a formidable foe capable of shape-shifting. In a tense encounter at a clothing store, the trio cleverly lures the T-1000 into a trap and successfully neutralizes it.
As events unfold, Kyle finds out he must father John Connor and navigates complex emotions surrounding this responsibility. As Sarah and Pops reveal that they have developed a makeshift time machine, the stakes rise when they plan to confront Skynet in 1997. Yet, Kyle insists they shift their focus to 2017 in order to thwart the creation of Genisys, a new global operating system designed to connect all devices—created by Danny Dyson (Dayo Okeniyi), the son of the late Miles Dyson (Courtney B. Vance).
In a shocking twist, John Connor reappears only to reveal he has been transformed into a T-3000 Terminator—an advanced version of the machines he’s fought against. The revelation shatters Kyle and Sarah; John was not only a leader of humanity but a weapon of Skynet, designed to ensure its survival.
As chaos unfolds, Kyle, Sarah, and Pops band together for one final assault on Cyberdyne Systems to prevent Genisys from launching. In an adrenaline-fueled escape from authorities, they confront John in a fierce battle with explosive consequences. As the conflict climaxes, the Guardian sacrifices himself to ensure their success— his remains fused with elements of the Mimetic Polyalloy, transforming him into a powerful ally.
After thwarting Skynet’s plans, the group makes their way back to Kyle’s childhood home, ensuring the foundations of their future remain intact. In a poignant moment, they leave behind a critical warning for Kyle’s younger self, ensuring he understands the need to alter their fates once again. As they journey away into the sunset, the closing scene hints that even amidst their victory, Skynet’s remnants may still pose a threat—surviving in a hidden chamber post-explosion, planting the seeds for future confrontations.
