Review of Predator (1987) by Steven1981 — 22 Mar 2020

Predator is an 1987 action sci-fi directed by John McTiernan and stars Arnold Schwarzenegger... He takes a team of elite commando's to rescue some hostages in this jungle like setting and finds out most of not all have been made a corpse out of.

He attacks some little village with his team, killing patrol guards and even takes one of he women but whether she's a hostage or member of the villains isn't explained. Anyway the badguy soldiers get killed, there are bullets, bombs and explosions going off and the area is secured.

Then Arnold Schwarzenegger and his commando team must make it to the border presumably for pick up/collection by a chopper but is hunted by an extraterrestrial invisible and visible alien creature who has cool firing gadgets lol.

The predator slays all of Schwarzenegger's soldier team members one by one using different methods of killing. He can see the heats of human body's and this is how he hunts and the soldiers and Arnold Schwarzenegger are carrying weapons so don't do themselves no favours.

Packed with entertainment, suspense, bad language, blood, explosions and the usual violence and special effects I'd say Predator is a classic but certainly not better than earlier films such as Raw Deal made in 1986.

.. Predator also stars Carl Weathers, Bill Duke, Sonny Landham, Jesse Ventura, Kevin Peter Hall as the predator.
