Audience Member Not a bad idea for a concept of a movie to be fair but the budget is way to low to pull anything to impressive off here. The suit looks abysmal...maybe a watch if your pissed and need a laugh??? Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Seemingly what you would get if you gave seasoned professionals the task of making an 10-year old, action-film-watching child's fantasy into a real movie fashioned after 1980's b-grade action, "Prey of the Jaguar" is quirky, fun, and intentionally hilarious. There's a tepid martial arts quality to the fight scenes. The acting seems deliberately cheesy from beginning to end, with the exception of a tender father-son scene that's too realistic and too irreverent of being on camera to be good Hollywood dialogue. If you're looking for strong camera work, get in line: the camera man is stationary the entire film, so get in the mood for lots of zoom, with plenty of pan, tilt, and some pretty wacky rotation thrown in. There are some funny, larger-than-life supporting characters that provide decent comic relief. The director's skill starts to really show in the scenes depicting the mental breakdown and re-invention of the main character as The Jaguar, after which out come some high quality sets and props, some decent special effects and colorful lighting, and one memorable costume. The clean body, clean mind, "regular hero" theme ties in well with the Tai Chi Kung Fu master-lineage story channeled by John Fujioka in a bit role. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Text to my wife that pretty much sums it up: "Hey! That waaaas Linda Blair in that crappy movie I watched last week."' Oh, if only MST3000 was still around . . . this would be an absolute must. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member A descent movie, could have been better on the writting but it was good anyways for a low budget movie. Wish they would have made a sequel to it. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member There are bad movies. There is the rare bad movie that is SO bad you have to watch it. This is not one of them. Everything from the story, the acting, the directing is just bad and not in a good way. This is just plain bad. I remember Matthew Caulfield being hailed as the next big thing. This movie is bad enough to have killed any career. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Makes BLACK SCORPION look like THE DARK KNIGHT. I'd rather watch PUMA MAN than sit through this again.
