Then the agreement being signed and Marcus Wright go to a long sleep.
Year 2018 John Connor and team (Resistance) were fighting with machines and attack one of the franchise of Skynet (System controlling and developing machines). Marcus Wright waked up from a long sleep and searches for the reason that why he is alive. In search of his life he meets Kyle Reese and Star who fights against machines. The question asked by Marcus Wright to Kyle Reese that What time it is? He says its 2018. Kyle Reese shows gun to Marcus Wright and ask who are you the answer was great.

Machine or Human:
Marcus Wright asked a question to Blair Williams,
Do you think humans deserve second chance?
Williams just nod in answer of that. The most amazing part of movie is that it explains about difference between Humans and Machines. As Marcus Wright most parts made of Machine just the brain and a strong heart of the human and a powerful skin like humans. Basically Marcus wright was made for evolution of Humans. A machine in the body of the human. John Connor thinks that he is a machine but Marcus Wright calls himself a human with surety and anger which shows humanity indicators. It is hard to believe that whether Marcus Wright is a Human or a Machine. Williams knows that he is a human as he behave like humans. Williams helps Marcus to run away. Now Marcus also need answers that who done this to him and only one place can answer this and that is the Skynet.

Half Machine and Half Human given the chance to save the world:
Somehow John Connor believe in Marcus Wright and ask him to help to find Kyle Reese. Marcus knows that Kyle Reese is with other prisoners in the Skynet. As Marcus reached to the Skynet base he reads all the data and the damaged skin of Marcus Wright rebuild by Skynet.

Climax With Heart:
Climax of the movie was awesome as the hope of the world (John Connor) was badly injured his heart beat going down. Again Marcus Wright take step and ask Kate Connor to transplant his heart into Connor's body, Williams tries to stop Marcus but he say everybody doesn't get second chance in life but i am the one who received. So he gives away his life to save the hope of the world John Connor.

Rating and Review:
Conclusive thing about Terminator Salvation is that it shows difference between humans and machines. Human beings are most prior thing among all living and created creatures due to their style of thinking, uniqueness, and emotions which doesn't exist in machines. So all the progress, development and innovation can not forget the role of Humans in evolution of the world. Human builds, destroy, rise, fall and again rebuild learn from the mistakes.
So my overall rating for the movie is 8/10.
Thanks for the precious time. Bye
