Episode #144: Terminator: Dark Fate

By Matt on Wednesday, November 6, 2019

Wednesday is here again and we are back to our one pod a week schedule. Mike and Matt hope you enjoyed our Second Annual Harvest Horror Fest and look forward to next year’s. Today your hosts jump head first into a robot Sci-Fi sequel Terminator: Dark Fate. Not robots from the future topics include McDonald’s fries, what is woke, and CGI.

This is probably the most divided Matt and Mike have been on a film in a very long time. Mike loved the latest installment of the Terminator franchise and well Matt did not to put it mildly. They both agree the action was great, the acting was fantastic, and most of the CGI was very good. The film flowed well but the issue at least for Matt was the plot. He claims it is the exact same plot as The Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgement Day smashed together and updated for today’s generation. Sound familiar Star Wars fans? Mike Talent enjoyed this film and did not disparage Matt for having a different opinion than him. Matt did the exact opposite but Mike kept to his guns giving the film 4 out of 5 Reels. Matt just can’t get over the reuse of the classic Terminator story yet again. He gives Terminator: Dark Fate 2.5 out of 5 Reels.

Next week we will review another Stephen King novel based horror thriller. How many are we up to now in 2019, four? Seriously? Let’s see there was Pet Sematary, It: Chapter Two, In the Tall Grass (streaming on Netflix but it counts!) and lastly the movie we will be reviewing Doctor Sleep. Man King must be just rolling around on a pile of money like Huell and Kuby! Don’t forget to listen to Matt and Leza on Magic 99.1 between 8:45 AM and 9:00 AM every Monday morning.
