Predator (2018) Review

in #blog5 years ago (edited)

So, I just finished watching this movie and here are my quick thoughts...

It was definitely not what I expected from the trailer, which is short of a good thing because trailers these days feel like you have watched the whole movie. 

The main problem with the Predator is that it has some serious genre identification issues... 

At some points it feels like pure comedy. At others, like a good ol'fashioned action movie.. And in a few scenes, it's like watching a disney film for kids, with a Goonies-like vibe... It just can't decide what it wants to be. 

Overall, a disgrace to the original predator films, but a somewhat fun film to watch. I will give it a 6/10 because I had a good day today and I feel generous. If it wasn't part of the Predator franchise it would probably flop. 

Here's the trailer if you haven't watched it:

Overall, just another shitty high budget movie, milking yet another popular franchise . Highly recommended if you have nothing better to do with your life.

Good night !

In this case I'm happy for not watching movies in the last decade or so..
:D

Ha! Yeah, there's little to miss unfortunately :(

Nothing beats the original. I love that movie.

The sequel beats it if you ask me :D

the one in LA?
no no no no

You have no taste

it has some serious genre identification issues...

genre, gender identification issues.... who does not have it our days! :P

i haven't watched it and neither do i intended cause of the exact same reasons you mentioned ( "shitty high budget movie, milking yet another popular franchise" You review confirmed my thoughts!

:(

Too bad.. I loved the first one with Arnie (uagh uagh get to da choppah) and the rest of the franchise wasn't bad either, even with the aliens mixed in.

Another milk and forget movie then I guess..
