Praticamente uma refilmagem de Cujo com leões e com um roteiro infinitamente mais idiota. Go to Full Review

Prey is fifty kinds of obnoxious, loud and dreary, at times flat out unwatchable. Go to Full Review

Overall, there's really nothing wrong with the directing, the writing, or even the acting...The only knock against Prey is that it's a very conventional thriller that's perfectly watchable, yet never particularly engaging Go to Full Review

I've always been a sucker for Animals Attack! movies, and this one manages to be a half-decent time-waster, if only in a 'rainy matinee' sort of way. Go to Full Review

TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch Oct 7 Prey is a horror film that feels like it was thrown together on a whim, more as an exercise in producing content than crafting a compelling story. At its core, it reminds me a little of Uncaged, except here the threat is a literal creature rather than a person transforming. Unfortunately, that small distinction doesn’t save the film from feeling derivative and shallow. If you approach it as a tongue-in-cheek, joke horror movie, it might pass as a mildly entertaining, easy watch. The problem is, it’s clearly intended to be frightening, and that’s where it collapses completely. The screenplay is chaotic and backward, lacking logic, cohesion, or any sense of credibility. Characters make choices that defy sense, and the plot meanders without tension or purpose. The direction does little to ground the film. The director seems scattered, trying to juggle multiple elements without focusing on what could have actually made the movie work. Instead, the narrative bounces between unnecessary subplots and overextended sequences, ultimately failing to deliver any genuine suspense or horror. The acting doesn’t help the situation either. Performances are flat, unconvincing, and at times, unintentionally comedic. By the time the story reaches its conclusion — which is as ridiculous as it is underwhelming — it’s hard to care about what’s happening on screen. Overall, Prey is a complete misfire. The poster may look intriguing and give off an icy, suspenseful vibe, but the movie itself doesn’t live up to that promise. For those seeking a horror experience, it’s a waste of time — better to skip it entirely unless you want a film to laugh at rather than be scared by.

See more 09/06/2021 Vista la trama particolare ed i paesaggi meravigliosi, sarebbe bastato poco per creare un film quantomeno guardabile; ed invece ne viene fuori un disastro. La regia è a dir poco scandaloso, tutte le sequenze di azione sono orribili e girate in maniera ridicola; per di più alcuni passaggi sono totalmente senza senso e davvero non ce n'era bisogno. Anche i personaggi sono pessimi, noiosi e già visti. See more 09/16/2019 Kinda predictable but a good time and suspensful See more 05/12/2015 I'll just say this "based on a true story"? No one is that stupid. See more Read all reviews
