What's with all the hate?

I personally don't mind it. It was halfway decent. I look at it as a different timeline/future than what was established in the previous films.
Here's how I view the movies: Terminator-Terminator: Rise of the Machines: the timeline that Reese is originally from, Salvation as basically the same future (with some slight changes to account for the postponement of Judgment Day), and Genisys as a different timeline in which the machines win by making John one of them.
And for anyone who asks, I view the Sarah Connor Chronicles as a different timeline/future that could lead to Genisys since it first introduced Derek Reese and Genisys included him.

Well that's the whole point isn't it ? I didn't want another timeline ! It's like fake-Ghostbusters, it disrespects the source material by cancelling it, that's how I take it.
Anyway what's done is done and I gave it a 2/10 instead of a 1/10 because I like JK Simmons in this: I always liked that guy since OZ and he is the only one who said one line that made me smile. -

I get it, I prefer the original timeline myself, but I've always been a Kyle Reese fan and liked the fact that he was added to the movie. So yeah, I guess I'm a bit biased in that regard.

JK Simmons should not have even been in this movie.
After the terminator is destroyed in the park with the punks, the timeline had changed and nothing was the same. Nothing in the first movie happened in the new timeline. Nothing in the second movie happened in the new timeline. Sarah Connor was never in prison, her son was never born, the silver terminator was never sent to kill her. -

I am sorry to say but that is an absolutely idiotic comment. It is a movie which added yet another twist to the overall story which in itself is hardly surprising given that in this universe time travel exists and if someone can do it once (well in fact twice) then it can be done again and again.
And of course the best movie in the franchise (T2) changed the timeline and so I guess you rate that low too for "disrespect"? I just shake my head at such nonsense.
2/10 is bloody ridiculous. I gave it an 8 but I am going to change that now.

I was just confused by the movie. The time jumps forward are when the movie got so confusing for me; add to that 2 Kyle Reese's and the strange memories the older one has and I just couldnt keep up.

I agree with the OP.
I thoroughly enjoyed it but I did get to experience it in Dolby Atmos (which was awesome).
IMO the movie is way better than Salvation which to mind mind is the dog of the franchise.
I do not get the hate either.
