Once again another Installment of predator falls on its face. Heard mixed reviews so decided to see for myself. It wasn't good. I would rather read subtitles while the natives were actually speaking their language and why give us French guys without English subtitles? Only French speaking people will know what they're saying. The cgi was very unnecessary and distracting. Jut too much of it that we didn't need and it looked very cheap.
Now let's talk about the Comanche kids. Looked like a bunch of stupid teenagers. There were no hardened or more experienced older warriors in the tribe? And am I to believe that after the predator beat the hell out of a 500 pound grizzly and lifted it over his head that a tiny 100 pound girl with no muscles can beat the crap out of him so easily. This alien is huge, powerful, fast and agile. He runs two or three times faster than humans and jumps from tree to tree like he's Spiderman. He ran his way through armies of men with ease but he had more trouble one on one with her. He seemed way overpowered any other time unless he was fighting her. She put up a better fight than Schwarzenegger in the original. Which is why it was so unbelievable. Everyone she fought, which were all men, got beat up. Please stop with the Mary sue characters.
The design of the predator was weird. Didn't really look like it usually does. And of course whenever his helmet was off the face was all cgi. Can we ever go back to practical effects? Sad that effects were better in the original movie made 35 years ago.
I really tried to like it but it's just too absurd. The story was ok. Action good. I liked that they went to 1700s and we saw the gun from the end of the 2nd movie. Still dont know how it ended up on predator's ship. A little change in scenery from the others which I thought was good. Overall it was just meh. Good for one watch then never again.
