Review of The Predator (2018) by Kaprawiec — 15 Nov 2018
Its the best predator movie since the original one.
People focus on criticising this for couple of reasons and ill try to adress those:
Jokes. Yeah like the first one didnt have those (and literally they came from Shane Black *for those who dont know - he was an actor - Hawkins - in the first one, now hes a director* so the jokes are on same as one of the users said "yo mama" level in this as they were in 1987). There wasnt much horror in the first one (well if You were 7 y old when You first watched, then MAYBE it scared You but then You should realize what was the reason for being scared in the first place - original is not scary to adult now and it couldnt be scary back then - thats one of the main reasons original was pummeled by critics in 87').
Rest of you either complain about poor story but ok action OR ok story but bad action. Same with CG its eihter good or bad. To some of you it adds nothing to lore but others complain that the lore is now broken with predators trying to improve themselves genetically.
Well make up your minds.
I 100% buy this vision. Characters are cool, story actually makes sense and its finally something more than "alien creature kills other beings for fun". Overall it is excellent sci-fi movie, one of the best I have seen in years.
