Wonderful character development!
Absolutely brilliant
It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
This is one of Arnie's best movies, and it still holds up quite well. There are some effects that are outdated, but otherwise it's still very good, and the only good movie with a Predator in it. The effects have improved in recent movies but they still haven't put one out that's as exciting as this debut. I'm curious with the new upcoming movie by Shane Black-who starred in this original. If you enjoy this, I'd Alien Vs Predator (the first one) is not too bad. Also Predators is ok, but I have yet to rewatch Predator 2. There are also a lot of really good comics with Predator in them, including crossovers with some super heroes.
Muscular, opaque alpha male commando hunts sometime invisible, wholly lethal, extraterrestrial manhunter which becomes hunted itself in a South American jungle. Supporting cast of meathead mercenaries.
Still one of the best Sci Fi movies to date. Fun to watch.
The film Predator gives us a action film that some are still trying to recreate today. Reminiscent of films like Alien and Rambo, McTiernan takes the best qualities from those films and uses them to his benefit. The performance he gets out of Schwarzenegger is one that is unforgettable, classic one liner after another. The action sequences are fun and keep the intense pacing of the film going. The supporting actors have great personalities but can be viewed as a little cliche. The dialogue presented can be cheesy at times, but avoidable because everything else going on keeps you distracted."The Predator" himself is a very interesting looking creature and is still passable to this day. The visual effects seem a little outdated at times, but still get the "invisibility" point across. Throughout the movie the musical score from Alan Silvestri can be heard at the most dramatic of times. Predator is a fun action movie that has a very high re-watch value. I wouldn't be surprised if there are more sequels to come. Directors will continue to fail in making what the original Predator is. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a good summer action/sci-fi flick.
