Predator blades to the taint, a Predator getting his head and spine ripped off, multiple decapitations with a steel cable, heads getting detonated right and left, a tranquilizer dart through a mother****er's eye, a dude getting chopped in half by a forcefield and his stump flying off into the distance, and you think this was PG-13 gore?

It was by no means good or logical, but I couldn't stop smiling the entire time I watched it.

None of the Gore was really visual. Shown at a distance and not on the level of predator 1 and 2.

*Picks up severed human arm, gives thumbs up signal*

Five of us on this board could have come up with a better story.

WTF Hollywood believes you have to have a) a kid in movies like this and b) a super-sized "whatever it is" to attract fans is beyond me. In this case is misfired spectacularly.

Why not just pick a current war zone and have the Predator come in and f*** s*** up?

Finally got around to watching this last weekend.....Shane Black, what in the **** were you thinking?

Ugh what an awful movie....completely nonsensical story that goes all over the place, horrible dialog, the humor doesn't land at all and there's way too much of it, and that ending....woof.

I love the Predator series but my God what a step back for the franchise....

Had the opportunity to watch on my overseas flight. Chose. Venom and Antman and Wasp instead.

The word is that it was heavily chopped up by FOX.

Not sure it would have saved it 100% though?

Your right, it was a little too hokey and didn’t take the premise seriously enough

Apparently the third act was completely re-shot, the rumors of what it was though didn't sound any better...



Just don't know why they don't go the anthology route and place Predators in different historical periods/battles...

I mean they've moved completely away from the original idea of aliens who are drawn to conflicts here and hunt for sport and man being afraid of something that's greater than itself...its damn cool AND WORKS. Keep it simple.

Now we've gone way off of reservation and get shit like this...

the director Shane Black is a flat out douche bag for the way he directed this . Its hands down the worst film I saw in 2018 . I know I know , Black was an actor in the 1st Predator film and did a good job with The Nice Guys but jfc he was so wrong to direct this one. Basically turning it into a slap stick action / comedy (which wasn't remotely funny either ) .
He had a good cast to work with but reduced Thomas Jane into a joke in this.
I seriously had 2nd hand embarrassment for all those involved.
3/10

and as someone else pointed out on here, that's all folks! This franchise is DEAD.
