Djgb13 2,339 Posted August 7, 2022 Anyone watched this yet? Heard it’s the best or second best out of the entire Predator series. Dad watched it last night and absolutely loved it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkeye21 2,457 Posted August 7, 2022 I watched it Friday and really liked it. I rank it close to the first two. I watched the second one right after the watched Prey. Pretty sweet they have all the movies on there right now. I think the first two and Prey are by far the best though. Did you notice the throwback to the second movie at the end of Prey?

I told my dad to watch that careful and see if he recognized it. He didn’t but then again he’s gonna he 80 this year and it’s been a while since he saw the second movie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkeye21 2,457 Posted August 7, 2022 I didn’t recognize it until I watched the second movie right after. Completely forgot. Was a great addition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I watched 1 & 2 a few months ago so it was still somewhat fresh in my mind. Had to send my dad a video to show him it. But he loved it. It got so many good reviews even despite the woke “I’m a girl and I can hunt just as good as the men” rhetoric they kept trying to use Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The trailer seemed to be heavy on the feminism front but it felt like the older movies where they had female lead characters that people actually liked.

I really enjoyed the ending in this one. I'm sorry, I just watched a big old clip on it. Including the ending & best scenes. I'll try to find that clip again. I'm sorry, I just have a hard time believing that a small army of the world's toughest soldiers armed with mini guns somehow got ass kicked, but not a bunch of speer chuckers and Canadian fur trappers. Just for context, these are the same people that got terrified by lightning put somehow figured out laser sighting devices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,797 Posted August 8, 2022 Spoilers. https://youtu.be/CaFHu5I2YTY Note. Lots of action. Which is cool. And it's not like it's a documentary. But every movie involves some level of suspension of disbelief. The question is how much are you willing to suspend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MLCKAA 586 Posted August 8, 2022 I like it. The only part I had trouble accepting was that Indians apparently knew martial arts and were also ninjas. Well, now that I think about it, the predator also seemed kinda dumb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tougher the better. Rite of passage to be dropped off on a planet to hunt and defeat whatever is there. No mention of smarts lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheNewGirl 1,638 Posted August 8, 2022 I am a big Predator fan (the original) and I really liked this one. I am not a big fan of Predator 2, Alien vs Predator, etc. But this one I really liked and thought it was a great "prequel." I didn't think it was "woke" because they used a female lead or Native Americans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
