PREDATORS

If it bleeds, we can kill it.
Dutch - Predator (1987)

Now I have always been a fan of the Predator character. I personally believe
he/it is a better more interesting character both visually and story wise then
his Xenomorph counter part from Alien(s). Which is kind of funny in a way being that
the Alien(s) get more screen time and more recognition where like I said Predators are a superior character.
So I was very excited for this film any film with Predators I will be excited for (yes
that even includes both AVP films).
As for the film itself all I can say is wow! I was truly very impressed by it.
It was very reminiscent of the very first film and even referenced the events of the first Predator film.
It was all good even the music was very reminiscent of the very first film as well with it updated yet familiar score.
but the movie was amazing it was suspenseful in the fact that you know something is going to happen but it is the anticipation that makes it work so well.
Also the action was very good and quick it was exciting to watch the characters try to survive this nightmare that they are seeming dropped into.
I did like the designs of the new Predators and even the I guess you would call them "Preadogs" I did like there designs as well it all look so cool and gritty and down to earth so to speak.
I did think the casting was a bit odd but it all worked wonderfully. Adrien Brody is one stone cold Bastard in this but I guess that's what it takes to survive in a situation like this, also I thought Laurence Fishburne had a larger roll in this film his character was more of a drop in drop out type but that does not hinder the over all film.
Now this isn't the "Predator 3" I have been hearing people talk about for year and years but I think this one might just be better. In short I loved this movie and if you're a fan of Predator especially the first one then you will probably love this.
