Review of Predator 2 (1990) by Paul P — 13 Dec 2011
Simply can not live up to the original. The new urban setting can't match the claustrophobia of the rainforest, and Danny Glover is a pretty big downgrade from Schwarzenegger as an action hero. Maybe its just me, but I have a hard time taking anything Gary Busey does seriously.
The monster is a total pussy compared to the first, as it takes him twice the weapons to take down half the prey. Despite these flaws, 'Predator 2' is still a pretty decent movie. It lives up to the expected gore and violence factors, and has some pretty awesome action sequences (the subway scene is particularly well done).
Definitely not as good as the first, but twice as good as the loads of crap known as the AvP movies.
