The Hollywood Reporter

Everything about this effort, including its hackneyed, overfamiliar title, smacks of laziness and a cynical indifference to its lack of originality.

Frame Rated

Prey might've been forgivable if it dived headfirst into its sense of ridiculousness, but it's ultimately too boring to even be so-bad-it's-good.

Rated: 1/5

Daily Dead

Despite the suspenseful premise, Prey turns in one of Blumhouse's weaker productions, which all comes down to unoriginality and an underdeveloped backstory.

Rated: 2/5

Spectrum Culture

The Blumhouse brand has proven to provide entertaining little projects, even when working with little to no budget, but Prey makes even their lowest achieving fare feel like A24's awards season bait.

Rated: 1/5

Common Sense Media

From the start, this ridiculous horror-suspense movie is fraught with nonsense and a head-scratching lack of logic; though it eventually goes crazily over the top, it's too late to care.

Rated: 2/5

Wicked Horror

This is the kind of movie that seems to lay out exactly what it is right away before zigzagging all over the place entertainingly.

Rated: 8/10

A dumb premise that leads to bloodless series of embarrassingly bad non-events.

Hey, it's not great. But it has its moments, a decent twist and some edgy bits. Its better than it's ratings by double maybe.

Solid survival horror, better than crawling through THE DESCENT I loved this movie. It was mechanically sound and followed a tight-lined script. While many others gush over the "Predator" rehash with the same title, I found that this movie had way more to offer. In fact, I would say that this movie is a cross between "Prey" 2022 and "Primal Rage" and adds a little "Cast Away," where the main character instead is a teenage guy who is chased by monsters across a Philippine island (maybe it's Philippine.) The survival antics were fun and interesting, versus the dumb pranks they play on Predator in the 2022 film which were forced and seemed like rehashes in their own rite of The Neverending Story. The banter here between the MC and himself in his hallucinatory state in the beginning of the film were better than Tom Hanks and the Wilson volleyball, to me. I gasped when he threw his knife in a teenage-rage. The ending was kind of interesting, and definitely had a few catches to the script, even though they were a little too easy to forecast. Good flick.

Really enjoyed this movie. The 3 main characters worked really well together and while it maybe light on plot and dialogue, it worked and rolled well as a film. Enjoyed it so much i have watched it 3 times in 2 days and it has captured my mind. Good concept and not over done. Jolene Anderson is hot. Have watched a few of her movies this week.
