One of the best films i have seen
not horrible nor great
Admirable film.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
View MoreI love the original Predator and all of the movies in the series. And I will never get tired of watching that one or this one again and again. However the only thing I have a small problem with in this movie is that Danny Trejo got killed off screen. But if you don't know much about the Predator mythos you'd better start studying up, because the Predators or Yautja we see in this movie were obviously bad bloods, who were either banished from Yautja Prime or were sentenced to death for a crime but escaped
View MoreInevitably this movie couldn't come close to the original in terms of sheer impact. It is, however, such an improvement over the other dreadful sequels that it deserves merit simply for that. Adrien Brody is solid in an against type role, and carries himself well. Every other character had the potential to be interesting but was not explored enough, especially Laurence Fishburne. The action was seriously well done, with flashes of the visceral energy that this series desperately needed. Should have been about half an hour longer to flesh out the characters and maybe have a few more plot twists but as a straightforward, entertaining and visually appealing sci-fi actioner it works. Will not go down as a classic but will always be worth watching when in the mood for an adrenaline rush.
View MoreAs a big fan of the original and most definitely the second installment, this comes as a surprise.It has some originality and soul, not as much as the previous two, and a lot of plot twists - too many for my liking. But hey, this is what movies nowadays are like so we should be moving with the times I guess.I would probably watch it again not as many times I did it's predecessors, just to wrap my head around all whats happening.The acting in the first two movies was superb, top notch - really high class performances. This one? meh!PS: I'll believe that there are aliens, who take humans as game to other planets, sure its statistically very plausible - but an IDF sniper whose compassionate and empathetic; now that's truly laughable.
View MoreNimrod Antal directs this Alien Sci-Fi sequel to PREDATOR (1987) and you will be enthralled with intrigue and suspense, because this is a creature feature that requires both eyes open. Seven strangers are dropped into a rugged jungle-like forest; each waking free fall as their parachutes open in the tree tops. A mercenary named Royce (Adrinn Brody) and a group featuring a Russian soldier, an unassuming doctor, a San Quinton prisoner, a Mexican drug figure, a mysterious Japanese, Sierra Leone soldier and a military trained female figure out they have been placed on another planet as prey for predators that can make themselves invisible. They think they have found a human ally; but can they even trust each other? They do agree that there has to be a way to survive what is chasing them. Special effects are scary and the predators are nasty ugly. Strong creature violence and gore galore. Other players include: Alice Braga, Danny Trejo, Topher Grace, Laurence Fishburne, Oleg Taktarov, Derek Mears, Carey Jones and Louis Ozzawa Changchien.
