Arnold Schwarzenegger leads an elite squad of U.S. Army commandos to a remote region of South American jungle, where they've been assigned to search for South American officials who've been kidnapped by terrorists. Instead they find a bunch of skinned corpses hanging from the trees and realize that they're now facing a mysterious and much deadlier threat. As the squad is picked off one by one, Arnold finds himself pitted against a hideous alien creature that's heavily armed and wearing a spacesuit enabling the creature to render itself invisible. The title says it all in describing the relentless, escalating action that follows, maintained by McTiernan with an abundance of visual flair. The film's special effects are still impressive, and stunning locations in the Mexican jungles create a combined atmosphere of verdant beauty and imminent danger. The plot doesn't hold up to much scrutiny, but the movie's so exciting and tightly paced that its weaknesses seem irrelevant. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - decentvideo was great. audio wasnt. i would recommend looking for a different copy Rating: - Don't waste your money on the Blu-Ray versionI have both the SD and Blu-Ray version and can tell no difference. This is the second FOX transfer I've bought and will buy no more till they clean up their discs. These appear to be nothing more than the SD version pasted on a Blu-Ray disc. Rating: - Great movie/Bad blu-rayPredator is a classic movie,one of my all-time favorites.This is not a review of the movie,but a review of the blu-ray version of the movie. This is a bad blu-ray transfer.It looks worse to me than the regular dvd version.(And I don't even know how that's possible).I guess it has to do with how the original source material was filmed and/or the quality of the process used to convert the movie to blu-ray.I know it's an older movie but that's no excuse.Halloween came out in what...1978 ...

First section of the movie has the plot reminding me of Stallone's FIRST BLOOD PART 2. After the initial mission has done well, another mysterious task looms to the special task force led by Dutch played by Swarzenegger. Highly intelligent alien monster is elusive and hardly gives the team the clue to what it is until the end(even after the movie ends nagging question "who ...

The Californian Gov's in fine form, fragging bad guys and sending them off with his trademark funny one liners. One of the Arnold's brawny best from the 80's puts most modern action films to shame for sheer high testosterone impact and concept. This ... Read More |
