Review of Predator (1987) by William C — 28 Jan 2015

Grade:Low 8/10.

Predator is a well known Sci-Fi film that is also a very good film and.

Possibly Arnold Schwarzenegger's best ever film. With some great action.

And a solid display from actors we thought couldn't do such things,.

Predator is a film that people can enjoy for decades to come, here is.

Why I thought that Predator was a very good film and enjoyable.

The story is fast paced and a testosterone filled thriller that is full.

Of pumped up fighting, giant aliens and a cast that aren't afraid of.

Getting there hands dirty. Yes it is all fun and fun it should be,.

Don't think too much about the acting in this and the story comes alive.

And by the end it will leave you wanting much much more. Finally if you.

Like a film with a little action hide and seek then this is definitely.

For you.

I felt Arnie does a solid job in this film and is one of his best roles.

Ever, no surprise as his massive frame fits perfectly with the lead.

Character who's strength is tested all the way through the film. The.

Supporting cast are good too and the team get along well although.

Another good thing is they have different roles, like Arnie is the.

Leader obviously and Carl Weathers is the rational voice of the group.

Etc. Finally if you like a super team of action fuelled thrills then.

This is for you because it is fair to say the entire team are massive.

Guys.

The script is pretty average if not poor but the film in a sense isn't.

About the script really, directed well though and I felt the film has a.

Nice flow to it and everything is put in the right place etc. The.

Effects are poor but what do you expect from a Sci-Fi film in the 80's,.

They work enough not to be funny but what I like is the costume the.

Predator uses which is some great work on that, and is generally very.

Scary also, again it makes you want to see more of the beast in a.

Sequel(which it got).

The film is very good but parts such as the beginning can be slow and.

Mundane and only into the middle section do we finally get some good.

Action a generally fun film. The acting isn't the strongest and some.

Very cheesy lines are put out there and some really quite over.

Dramatics from Arnie towards the end. I didn't like the effects but as.

I say they didn't have the technology so I will them the benefit of the.

Doubt with that one.

People who will enjoy this I would say action fans, people who like big.

Guns, big muscles and big aliens will love this and could be one of.

Your favourites of all time. If your looking for sophistication then.

This isn't for you as it is just one big compilation of thump. It is a.

Good length for a movie, not too short and not too long and so the.

Action doesn't get dated, and the story doesn't drag too much either so.

It is all good.

Overall I give it a low 8/10 just about a Very Good film, it is nowhere near.

Being a Great film but I did feel it got away from just being straight.

Good and of course was very good. Watch it and savour it, and with a.

Sequel also I think you will want to see more of this series of films.

And really enjoy the thrill that is Predator the film.
