Review of Predator (1987) by Timone — 30 Nov 2021

In many respects, Predator is part of the Alien merchandise which is why there is a spin-off film to it called Alien vs. Predator. After I reviewed all of the Alien films I decided I would now review Predator which it stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and many more.

It's not even a horror film, it's more like an action sci-fi film which occasionally had some scares. It's nothing that scary apart from when it's quiet. There occasionally have some blood and guts for the most part.

The opening is pretty impressive and the ending is spectacular. the story is very basic, simple and straight forward. I know that years ago critics giving it mixed reviews saying the story is too flat and paper thinned, I can see why.

The third act is where Arnold Schwarzenegger as Dutch being very quiet trying to kill the predator once and for all. The third act doesn't even have any dialogue apart from the end where he says ''Bleed, b!£$%^d.

'' and the one that everybody says it's a memorable line in the movie industry is ''You one ugly motherf$%ker.'' I know there's plenty to go around but that's the way the movie goes. There's another memorable that Schwarzenegger said.

All he said is ''Get to the chopper!'' I just realise that years back! Oh, oh, and if you think that is not enough? Why don't you take a look at this! Blain played by Jesse Ventura says a line that I know as a kid is that Jonah from Splashdown 2: Rides Gone Wild fails, he says ''I ain't got time to bleed.

'' and wouldn't you know it? Jesse says it. Oh, Jesus, if many of the characters ripping off the films that many of the actors said, this game would be pop culture. Maybe Jesse Ventura have got time to duck.

it really had an all star cast who are in the jungle. It has Arnold Schwarzenegger, Carl Weathers, Elpidia Carrillo, Jesse Ventura, Richard Chaves, Bill Duke, Sonny Landham, Shane Black and then there's Kevin Peter Hall as the Predator.

It shows the from the beginning of the end credits which is really impressive. Bill Duke also worked with Arnold Schwarzenegger in Commando which is rather usual. He played a bad guy in Commando and now he played a good guy in Predator.

Shane Black's character is the character who tells Billy laugh by telling his puxxy jokes. He only did it about two times. Billy played by Sonny Landham is afraid of no man. Now the Predator is in the jungle to kill people and take their body of bones out of their skins and camouflages like a chameleon and can make himself disappear.

If you think Aliens isn't enough? Then you've haven't seen Predator with some action packed thrills and occasional scares and a straight forward simple basic story. I love the opening and I love the ending.

I would actually prefer the Alien films because they're really scary film and it will scare the living s£!t out of you and me. Predator is just your good action sci-fi flick directed by the same guy who directed one of my favourite films of all time Die Hard, John McTiernan.

It has some good effects on the predator and yeah, that's about it. There're sometimes one-liners in this from Schwarzenegger are too vague like ''Stick around.'' and ''Knock knock.'' but that's only two times.

And you will the predator bleed showing green blood because if it bleeds, we can kill it. "You one ugly motherf£$ker.
