The Predator

Thermal vision, stealth camouflage, bewitching weaponry, and a reggae hairdo. Wherever you're hiding, when the Predator sees you, you'd be as good as dead as the Predator movies spanning from the original to 2010's Predators show that no one's safe from the universe's most lethal hunter and now, a Predator to end all Predators has landed and looks like the deadly game of hide-and-kill will be the most relentless and chilling you'll ever witnessed.

The Predator

Directed by Shane Black and starring Boyd Holbrook, Trevante Rhodes, Jacob Tremblay, and many others, this fourth installment of the Predator movie franchise warns moviegoers that they'll have to brace themselves for the Predator to end all Predators as hunting season has begun. Question is, are they prepare for this relentless action thriller that shreds the moviegoers away with some edge-of-your-seat thrills?

Set after the events of the original 1987 film, a young boy accidentally unleashed a horde of Predators wrecking havoc in the neighborhood. With the Predators now more deadlier than before, can a group of ex-soldiers and a disgruntled science teacher save the world against a powerful horde of Predators, even when they face off against the Predator that ends all Predators?

After three long decades, fans of the Predator franchise have no place to hide over the sheer level of terror this action thriller possess, delivering classic Predator action to an everyday world similar to those zombie apocalypse films we're familiar with. Since this is a film about humans trying to survive against the universe's most lethal hunters, fans will find themselves difficult to predict the outcome of this film because of the way the Predators are now in this film and as the film progresses, what's going to happen at the end is everyone's guess.

In other words, it's a complex but terrifying film that will leave moviegoers in the dark and when it comes to deliver classic Predator moments to today's generation, no one's safe from this menace.

My rating: 3.9 out of 5
