As you can see by the ratings above the film received mixed reviews from critics.
I’ve been a Predator fan since the series started - seen every film that was made and have enjoyed them all. Hence I wanted to see this one.
This film brings to bare rhyme, reason and rational why the Predators visit our planet and why they’ve been hunting humans. It’s all explained in the film and rapidly becomes apparent that we are now facing a “SUPER” Predator.
Theres a lot of humor injected in the film and makes for an interesting movie. it also has much more information about the Predators and easily sets up for more installments to follow.
As a fan I enjoyed this movie thoroughly . I saw it in the “BIG D” theater at the Majestic and it made the price of admission worth while. It’s jam packed with action and the battles are 100 times better than any of the previous Predator movies.
