Far less serious (or as groundbreaking) as the original, but it still has fun characters, a decent plot and awesome action and gore. It's a complete riot from start-to-finish.

There’s a lot of coasting going on in The Predator. A lot of boxes being checked—sometimes checked with flair, but they’re still the same old boxes. Read more

I can’t say I loved this movie by any means, but it was full of action and explosions.

The pacing, the action, and the humor generally offset the deficiencies in continuity and storytelling. Read more

An action film stuck in the past with jokes that don’t land well anymore and a central movie monster that isn’t presented in a way that conjures up much excitement... Read more

Aims to revitalize the sci-fi action franchise with fresh ideas, but succeeds at delivering mindless action more than cohesive mythology. Read more

Lower your expectations and there’s still great moments of fun to be had here, but this is like a handgun to the original’s laser cannon. Read more

More of a comedy than the sci-fi-horror-action hybrid that the franchise is known for. And most of this comedy is groan-worthy, at best. Read more

The worst thing about all of it is just how unloved it feels. Read more

Quite frankly, the most disappointing film which I’ve seen so far this year.

It stays just above water most of the way, in a low grade fashion, but the third act is a complete mess... Read more

As an action flick, The Predator is a damp squib. The few set-pieces we get rely heavily on gore rather than any visual creativity, reminding us that the film is helmed by a filmmaker more renowned for his words than his images. Read more

An incoherent mess of a film with unlikeable characters, a disjointed narrative that has clearly been cut to the bone, terribly edited incoherent action and too much focus on uninteresting details. Read more

The characters are alright at best but after 107 minutes of bland action, boring story, and horribly unfunny jokes, you’ll be pleading for the film’s end. Read more

Gelukkig beschikt The Predator, met name dankzij de bovengenoemde bijrollen, over genoeg charme om deze gebreken te verhullen. Read more

De eerste Predator gaat waarschijnlijk nooit meer geevenaard worden, maar moeten we dat willen? The Predator is gewoon een lekkere actiefilm welke ondanks zijn manco’s zeker het zien waard is. Read more

The Predator kijkt gemakkelijk weg, maar ruilt enige vorm van spanning in met een overschot aan humor. Read more

Het is jammer dat The Predator dan ook niet helemaal aan de hoge verwachtingen voldoet terwijl het wel de potentie had om in de buurt te komen van het origineel. Dat neemt niet weg dat er wel degelijk een aantal momenten zijn om van te genieten...

De allure van de franchise is weg dankzij de volledig oninteressante personages, platgetreden plotwendingen en setting.

Niet de reboot dat we verwachtte en we zijn dan ook diep teleurgesteld in Shane Black’s versie van The Predator. Boe! Read more

The Predator weet het voor elkaar te krijgen om ver onder de laagste verwachtingen te presteren. Dat is opmerkelijk, vooral gezien het talent dat voor en achter de schermen rondloopt. Read more

Niet alleen een teleurstellende nieuwe film rond de Predator, maar simpelweg ook een van de slechtste blockbusters van dit jaar tot nu toe. Read more
