Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Executive producer Robert Rodriguez (Grindhouse, Spy Kids) is the driving force behind this energetic reboot of the popular Predator films, which pits the dreadlocked alien hunters against a rogues' gallery of human antiheroes, led by a bulked-up Adrien Brody. The Oscar winner acquits himself nicely in the role of a gritty mercenary who finds himself stranded on a jungle planet with a host of criminals and professional killers (among them such scene-stealers as Walton Goggins and Danny Trejo), as well as a seemingly innocent doctor, well played by Topher Grace. They've been deposited there to serve as living targets for a horde of Predators--whose looks, designed by Gregory Nicotero and Howard Berger, are impressively varied and sleek--that use the planet as their private hunting grounds. Laurence Fishburne is also on hand as a soldier who has managed to survive for years in the jungle; he, Brody, and Grace do much to make the pulpy dialogue by Alex Litvak and Michael Finch (adapting a premise penned by Rodriguez in the mid-'90s) palatable. Likewise, Hungarian director Nimrod Antal (Vacancy) lends a great deal of atmosphere and Rodriguez-style momentum to the picture--perhaps more than necessary, since the end result is, like the 1987 original with Arnold Schwarzenegger, a fun B-movie and nothing more, designed entirely to give moviegoers a slick, unchallenging roller-coaster ride. Having said that, it's a vast improvement over the 1990 sequel and the dreadful tie-ins with the Alien franchise, and should provide movie monster aficionados with an afternoon's worth of thrills. --Paul Gaita

Product Description:
Robert Rodriguez presents Predators, a bold new chapter in the Predator universe. Adrien Brody stars as Royce, a mercenary who reluctantly leads a group of elite warriors mysteriously brought together on a jungle planet. But when these cold-blooded human “predators” find themselves in all-out war against a new breed of alien Predators, it’s the ultimate showdown between hunter and prey.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Plain fun
So this new predators could have been atrocious. It could have been done as poorly as the Alien Vs Predator series but low and behold this film was incredibly good. It was a nice throw back to the original Predator which was a cheesy film with two future governors in it, laden with so bad it's good one liners. This new film is kind of the same cheesy dialogue but good fun all the same. It reminds you why you fell in love with the first one.

The plot is basically a group of people chosen ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Game Preserve Predators
Predators was tasked with the impossible job of setting a bruised and battered series back on course while reminding people of the great film that christened the endeavor from the beginning. After the Aliens vs. Predator films regulated the predators to bystanders in the sub-hack-and-slash horror genre, it had become evident that it was time for something different. I'm pleased to say that, while hardly the classic of the first film, Predators manages to inject new life into a science fiction concept ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Entertainment for a Lazy, Summer Afternoon
I went to see this movie during a Saturday afternoon matinee, where I had a few hours to kill. I enjoyed this movie so much and there was so much going on with the story, that I went back on Sunday evening, the next day, to watch it again and was just as entertained looking for the nuances and details in the movie. Similar to Avatar, which I also watched twice during a 2 week period, I caught a lot more information the second time around. I fully intend to purchase the movie as soon as it is available on ...

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Forgettable sequel with forgettable characters with a s****y miscast lead really an insult to the original 2.5/10
Predator from 1987 is a solid movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jessie Ventura, Sonny Landham, Bill Duke & Carl Weathers. I could quote a lot of lines from that movie I've loved it since I saw it on TV back in 1996. Great SCI FI action slasher film. Predator 2 is a good sequel has a fairly fast pace great lead in Danny Glover good supporting cast in Maria Conchita Alanso Ruben Blade Bill Paxton. Good villain in Gary Buesy of course Kevin Peter Hall as The Predator in both movies. I like Predator 2 it's not ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The Third Dedicated Predator Film Pays Homage to the First
I have been an avid Predator fan since the Governor of California first tangled with one in the jungles back in 1987. I wasn't swayed a few years later when the black cop from Lethal Weapon took one of the same alien species out amidst gang warfare in a (then) futuristic Los Angeles. I stuck with it even through the AVP disaster (redeemed slightly by the second effort). Naturally, it was with extreme trepidation that I went into Predators; first showing on opening day. Robert Rodriguez's past film efforts ... Read More
