Review of Prey (2022) by Umaumai — 06 Aug 2022
The only thing that really stuck out for me was the animal CGI isn't very well done. I'm not sure if it was a budget thing or they just didn't care, but the Predator and everything about how this one functioned ruled.
Some of the best art design all around for everyone in the cast and especially the Predator. On the positive side the movie does not overstay its welcome. Sadly though it was over before I felt it really started.
There is even a key moment that can be missed in the animated end credits that explains how the flintlock pistol makes its way through the ages. (Because it recaps the movie it's an almost blink and you'll miss it moment right as that ends.
) The pacing and narrative is done very nicely as this is a really great example of showing verses telling the story. However, this is one film where I felt like a little more dialogue would have been welcome.
There were a few confusing moments near the end of the film that I had to guess as to what was happening. If you are a fan of the Predator franchise then I don't think this disappoints.
