I really do like this film. It's taken me a while to have a better appreciation for it. I remember seeing it with Aliens on a double feature when I was 7. Aliens scared the crap out of me but i don't remember how I reacted to this film. ForI really do like this film. It's taken me a while to have a better appreciation for it. I remember seeing it with Aliens on a double feature when I was 7. Aliens scared the crap out of me but i don't remember how I reacted to this film. For most of my young life macho stuff was pretty much thrusted down my throat by my father. It wasn't until later in life that I began to find an appreciation for it. Being an out gay man i can certainly appreciate how hunky Schwarzenegger and crew are but it's more than that. I love the brute force of this movie and how raw it is. It's big, it's dumb and it's silly and most of all it's unapologetic. The practical FX and gore are beyond amazing. The plot is pretty much a throwaway. It's pretty much our beast versus a beast from the stars. And on those simplistic limits it delivers a hell of a time.

Budget: $18m
Domestic Box Office: $60m
Worldwide Box Office: $98m

The Predator is a great movie. It has moments that do not work well and a poor script, but his movie direction and the actors are awesome. A great classic action movie.

Predator has an awesome concept of a group of men being hunted one by one in a jungle were no one can escape. Predator mixes well a little bit of horror with action and is one of Arnold Schwarzeneggers best films.

One underrated aspect of this movie is the excellent character development. The movie doesn't waste time and you know all the major players within the first 15 min of the movie.

There's a lot of gunfire, knife attacks and explosions. There are some images of bloody injury detail, which may upset some, hence it being part categorised as a horror. For most people, this isn't gory often enough to qualify as a 'full blown horror film' but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone especially squeamish or similar. It didn't disturb me too much but in the 1980s it would have done.… Expand

Still, since when does anyone listen to film critics. For me this had everything, excellent soundtrack, great masculine cast, superb action, great one liners and most impressively of all a superb creature that for once didn't disappoint when revealed. Truly a must watch for action movie fans. I honestly don't think this film has ever been bettered.… Expand

Muscle, sweat, grit. Perfect alien killer versus elite band of human killers. What’s not to love? This is testerone-fuelled goodness from the 80s.

Film was not that great. Was so much stretched. Acting was not good and film's emotions are also weak. Even though they did a great job with what they had, you'll be seeing some weird CGI. Overall, you may enjoy it but not for so long....

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Predator (suomeksi saalistaja) on vuoden 1987 kauhuelokuva, jossa "sotilasjoukko" lähtee tutkimusretkelle viidakkoon. Pian heille kuitenkin selviää, että kaikki ei ole kohdallaan. Ruumiita löytyy ympäri ämpäri viidakkoa ja kummallisesti joukostakin kuolee melkein kaikki jäsenet. Kaiken takana on avaruudesta tullut tuntematon olio ja joka on huippu varustautunut.

Oma mielipide:
Predator on kyllä hyvä, mutta siinä toistuvuus iskee. Koko ajan ollaan 10 minuuttia tutkiskelemassa ja sen jälkeen tapetaan seuraava henkilö ja sama juttu toistuu, joka hieman ärsyttää.

Ps. En ole vielä katsonut Predator 2:sta, mutta tulen senkin arvioimaan jossain vaiheessa.… Expand

The performance was good, the music was great, the Predator himself was amazingly terrifying, and once the movie was in action, it's great, so great, but once it's not, it's boring, so boring.

Predator oozes masculinity and over the top fun, playing to the strengths of an in-his-prime Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The movie actually has a very cliché and boring scenario. However, it has such a nice last 20 minutes and such a beautiful predator design that it manages to class itself as a cult movie. They didn't make the mistake of showing the alien in the first movie of Alien. It continues in other movies as well. That's why it couldn't be a cult series like Alien. 7.5/10… Expand
