Michael I love all the action scenes, especially the fight with Dutch and the Predator. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/03/24 Full Review MrOzguy T Such a nostalgic movie. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/01/25 Full Review AnActor E One of the greatest action movies of all time, “Predator” transcends its art form, spanning the action, horror and survival genres one by one, increasing the pace and stakes of the film, drawing the audience closer and closer to the edge of their seats. Employing the musical talents of the legendary Alan Silvestri, whose suspenseful and dramatic composition is ideal for this production, as well as the mindful eye of cinematographer Donald McAlpine, whose absolutely gorgeous close quarter cinematography beguiles the viewer, a great deal of Predator’s enduring merit lies in its excellence in production. Placement of elements in each frame, here, is a masterclass. Use of a jungle biome is fitting, given the name of the film, which already carries a natural connotation. Make no mistake, Predator is a reflection on our technological superiority over our environment, only to find ourselves at its mercy when the tables are turned. After presenting us with excellence in human male superiority and demonstrating to us exactly what these pinnacle soldiers are capable of (their coordination, awareness and ability to adapt), “Predator” squares them off against an enemy that’s truly at the top of the food chain. A vie for superiority ensues, culminating in the greatest melee Hollywood has ever seen. Predator is truly timeless cinema, evolving the scope of its genre, invigorating art and culture, and inspiring an entire generation of artists, as well as a franchise that’s still evolving to this day. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/28/25 Full Review M B Outstanding 80s Sci fi action movie with all time great actors! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/24/25 Full Review Josh A This is a solid movie. It's like The Evil Dead: it's not a masterpiece, but it's good. Very good. It's entertaining at least. It's like a slasher film in a jungle with aliens. Let's begin. The actual story isn't really anything to phone home about, but it's good: a rescue team go to a jungle to save hostages, and there's an alien in the jungle that's hunting them for sport. It's a tense story that's done effectively, and Dutch slowly adapting to the situation and fighting the predator at the end is incredibly satisfying. The best part of the film, however, is the actual predator. It has a cool design, looking like a real animal, and it operates like an actual predator, slowly picking off the characters and when it takes the mask off, it looks as scary as you'd imagine it to be. Well, I think it's kind of cute, but I can see why people would find it scary. Overall, a great movie and great start to the franchise.
