TRAVEL TO MOVIES: THE PREDATOR

Director: Shane Black
Cast: Boyd Holbrook , Olivia Munn , Sterling K. Brown , Thomas Jane , Yvonne Strahovski , Jacob Tremblay , Trevante Rhodes , Keegan-Michael Key , Jake Busey , Jan Bos , Niall Matter
Plot: From the outer reaches of space to the small-town streets of suburbia, the hunt comes home. The universe's most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter and deadlier than ever before, having genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species. When boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth, only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and an evolutionary biologist can prevent the end of the human race.


My Movie Review: The movie is elevated giving us fresh new take of a beloved monster alien! The Predator is wiser in creating unique twist while staying true to its roots and smarter in feels showing different kind of thrills- it's a shame most critics find it confused- sloppy mess of a film! The start felt like a scene from Star Wars when it shows the outer space and the vast skies as the alien ship approaches to Earth it gave wow factor seems like whole new adventure awaits:) The cast was brilliant they might not be the first names to pop-up in this franchise they sure did more than expected from unusual leads that's unpredictable to it's diverse supporting fun team! Olivia Munn is so cute with her backpack on running around chasing the alien also she's good fighter and she might be in the next sequel as the last scene suggest set future back on track:)

Movie News: Shane Black's "The Predator" is a fun, brutal, fighting machine that wastes no time getting down to business not unlike its title character. It’s not big on wasted dialogue or too many attempts at meta humor, playing both like an homage/throwback film to the action of the ‘80s and something that feels new and fresh. There’s nothing pretentious or whimsical here as we so often see in films that almost parody ‘80s action instead of trying to figure out why these movies endured in the first place. It’s easy to mimic or mock. It’s much harder to ask why the first "Predator" captured lightning in a bottle and try to catch it again. With fantastic cast and razor-sharp pacing, the fact is that this is what you want from a movie called The Predator!
