This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie was every bit as cliched and contrived as I thought it would be. It actually has the line "if it bleeds we can kill it." The entire end confrontation between the poorly written main character and the seemingly weak excuse for a Predator is just so much stupid it is cheesy. The Predator can kill a bear in hand to hand combat, it can kill armed Indian braves and armed French trappers but can't manage to kill a 100 lb. girl...this movie is the definition of CONTRIVED! frankly my favorite part of the movie was the dog Sarii. They just tried too hard to make Amber Midthunder's character a strong powerful woman and it comes off as forced especially when going up against an advanced alien hunter that is like three times her size. And don't forget the magical herb that can completely nullify your body heat without actually doing anything else. The Predator design was kind of hokey looking too, it looked more like cheap cosplay than any Predator design from the franchise yet.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What in God's name did I just watch? That was one of the most painful experiences I have ever witnessed. I'm seriously close to saying "The Predator" was better and I even walked out of that movie. I didn't even see the whole thing.

Pros: 1. Cinematography - Not going to lie here. That was some top notch visual cinematography from a low budget film. Well done.

2. The dog doesn't die.

That's it. That's literally it. There was nothing else good about this movie.

Cons: 1. Borderline rated R. So many "reviews" out there saying how gory it was. This movie was not gory at all. As a matter of fact, it's easily the least gory of the entire series. A lot of kills are done from far away or the scene cuts out.

2. Acting was below average at best.

3. How in God's name does a human being from the early 1700's fully comprehend an alien species and their technology. When it uses its mask first, she automatically understands how and why. Then she steps in a bear trap (that she is able to easily walk off from afterwards as if she didn't suffer any broken bones or anything) and is kidnapped by French Trappers who automatically know what the creature is there for all because they find a weapon. Then at the end, she takes the mask (because she automatically knows how the mask works) and uses it against the Predator to kill him in the stupidest way possible. Which basically tells you that all the characters just automatically know things throughout this movie, No build up. No need to study. No needing of any comprehension whatsoever to explain this anomaly that flew in from space. They just see something once and they know. Or, they see it do something and just know what it's doing.

4. The Predator - Oh my god... they made this Predator the weakest by leaps and bounds. This tiny little girl wins a hand to hand wrestling match against a bear bench pressing Predator. Plus, it made the most absolutely bone headed mistakes for a creature that hunts the grandest trophies throughout the universe. It was obvious the political agenda behind this film was the real reason they made this. And it's "roar" was PAINFULLY bland. The original Predator's roar was so amazing and awesome. This one just sounded like a bear. Nothing more or less. And with all of technology it carried that it just lets her win?

5. They do zero justice to the creature or canon. This creature was nothing more than just a typical villain. This movie would've been much better if it was just the Comanches VS trappers. I would've been way more understanding and interested. But, they make this Predator stupid and weak despite previous movies and comics, and they completely make the pistol from Predator 2 the pistol of a trapper. This creature hunted for centuries, but the Great Plains is now when they started? Not one of the screenwriters or director did any research on this whatsoever. At all.

6. Very slow start and very cliche ending. Anyone who was scared of what the movie may be like from the trailer. Trust me, it's exactly what you were worried about it was going to be. And to me, it was even worse.

7. Zero tension. No... no, no, no... There were absolutely no parts of this movie where I felt tense whatsoever. As a matter of fact, when you assumed something was going to happen? Yup, it does. In a painfully cliché way.

In closing, I'm more than okay with native Americans getting their time to shine on the big screen. In a society filled with women empowerment, I'm okay with movies starring a female lead. Ripley, Sarah Connor, etc. They used their grit and their smarts. This movie was completely the opposite. This movie is a cash grab that takes a beloved character and uses that character to show that humans were way smarter than history states to where they comprehend alien technology so easily. And how women are so strong that a small 100 pound girl can win a wrestling match against a 7'0 killer that spends each and every waking moment hunting and gathering its trophies. It does absolutely zero justice to the creature. Absolutely none. At this point, any time there's a new Predator movie, there's no need for excitement. Because, I'm the end, they're just going to lose.

You all should be ashamed of yourselves for praising films like this. This was easily one of the worst films I've ever seen. It's so bad, I even regret the Predator tattoo on my arm.… Expand

A young woman (Amber Midthunder) is determined to be recognized as a good hunter, so she resolves to track down the mysterious monster. Even though some of his traits are different (earlier tech), he still has enormous powers to quickly dispatch man and beast. The action scenes are staged adequately and the action keeps moving. On the other hand, there's never anything original or unique about the writing or direction (other than the setting). While I'm sure the producers worked hard to assure culturally appropriate decisions, Midthunder sounds L.A. and looks Goth, plus the dialogue also uses 21st century syntax, which takes viewers out of the period. Overall, it's adequately made, but won't do much to move the franchise forward.… Expand

Probably one of the better VOD movies, but it is held back by poor acting, significantly low budget that is detrimental to the premise, and unutilized potential of the setting.

Most of the 0 and 1 are not that wrong and there swings this woke swords behind its neck and not in a good way. I try to but objective cause they really tried. A new setting and a more mainstream suited lead role. And I guess that's one of the problems. Predator was never mainstream and never about a coming of age story for a girl. It shows some horror and dark parts but it develops not straight forward in this way. It has also some very very predictable and standard plots and characters. But it also has some great scents and gives off the 18th century vibe they wanted to show. There could had been more of this. And the best at the end: the fight scenes. They are better than the average and I liked it. I wouldn't rewatch but I enjoyed it last evening and that's ok.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. HOW TO SPOT A FAKE REVIEW 101: Notice they can't name a scene in the movie that didn't appear in the first trailer. Notice they use key Tucker-terms like "woke" and "mary-sue" and "100 lb girl." They HAVE to use those terms in each post because the hive-mind commands.
There's a lot of first day low score reviews on here of people who obviously didn't watch the movie, but are basing their reviews off of trailers and internet rage-boy hive-mind opinion.
"They shouldn't be speaking English they should be speaking Comanche!" There's a Comanche dub available.
How can a 100lb girl beat something that Arnold could barely kill?
Well, that question, my friend, is a multi-part answer. A) This predator is the smallest out of any predator we have ever seen (is it younger?) and has less advanced technology too. (300 years prior) It has no energy weapons like the shoulder plasma launcher we know and love and it's cloaking device fails pretty early in the movie.
B) By the time Naru gets around to fighting this predator, it has been seriously mauled by a grizzly, speared and shot by some Comanche, trapped and shot multiple times by a group of trappers and... my favorite part..., seriously f'ed up by Naru's brother.
C) One of the reason Naru survives instead of the dozens of others that go up against the predator is because she's smart not strong. The first time she could run up and attack it like like her Comanche warrior brethren. But she runs instead. The second time she could surprise it, but she hides instead. That brings me up to the second big complaint I'm reading about people who actually haven't seen this movie. Naru is a mary-sue that is perfect and better than the men in the movie. Is she? The first time we see her hunting deer... she fails. Then we see her hunting rabbit and she fails until she makes some improvements to her weapons. She tries to get the jump on a grizzly and her bow string snaps and she can only run for her life. She also just barely escapes a quick sand of mud.. quick mud? We all have seen The Star Wars Sequel trilogy... this is not how a mary-sue works.
And these people giving 0s and 1s: If you've seen the movie you don't give it at least SOME props for its unique setting? Or the amazing cinematography? Or the new music? Or at least Naru's brother who steals the show? Or this predator's new arsenal? Some people be trying real hard to hate everything in life.
Things I really liked: many of the people that went up against this predator did some serious damage to it, from the grizzly that drew first blood, to the second Comanche warrior that damaged it's cloaking device, to Naru's brother that damn near killed the thing. Even the french trappers got the jump on it, but when it took them a minute to reload their muskets after he blocked their first shots I had to laugh out loud. Got to love that historical accuracy. TLDR: I had a blast with this movie and it's definitely the best Predator movie since the original. Watch it and get your own opinion... avoid the hive mind.… Expand

Quite positively dreadful entry into the long running Predator series that Hollywood will try and convince you it's a franchise.

Yet again we get a pointless Prequel of a beloved original classic film and it's "Disneyfied" with modern day politics, modern day behaviours and 4 foot tall Girl Power. The special effects in this film are some of the worst visual effects I've seen in decade, possibly not since some other bland Disney cash-grab film. Seems Hollywood truly doesn't look over their rich history of told stories to know this trite affair isn't an origin story of the Predator as that story was told much better in the superior Aliens Vs Predator film from 2004. This rubbish is woke Hollywood's attempt to supplant a minority as the figurehead of all Predator events going forward, that we are to believe a 4 foot tall Native American with a trusty axe and rope went head to head with a 10 foot alien species??? Talking of Native Americans, what a shoddy bunch of cast members they got to portray the honourable proud Native Americans that completely didn't come across and remind me that I was watching an ancient tribe of hunter gatherers living off the land and being picked off by this otherworldly killer. These Z-list actors and actresses just reminded me of my time in Pasdena, Los Angeles with their "sooo cool for skool" SolCal talk and backchat, the modern mannerisms that seem like they all caught the time machine of Bill and Ted and headed to California 2021 just to see how snarky and insufferable they can be before heading back nearly 300 years in the past to show how hip and hop the 1700s must have been. Half expected a Starbucks wigwam tent to pop up. Besides the main actress terrible one note performance of scowling at the mensfolk and running like Baby Leia in the next scene, what also sinks this low brow effort at a Predator film is the filmmakers actually should have as close as true Native American dialect with accompanying subtitles to depict these old warriors of this nation from a bygone era. Instead we have Disney's very own Pocahontas for the modern age, that will sink to the depths of late night cable trash tv in the years to come. Arnie's 1987 masterpiece and Predator 2 remains the gold standard and untarnished in this film series.… Expand

Naru is wiser and stronger than anyone realizes but hasn't had her true hunt yet and unfortunately her greatest test also happens to be something humanity itself isn't ready for; What follows from here is Predator vs anyone foolish enough to get in its way.. you want blood, gore, dismemberment, and unfeeling brutality? You got it, The Predator doesn't discriminate here and Naru sees it all happen herself and plans and learns from the battles of the fallen. I will not spoil the rest but the ending and final battle between Naru and The Predator is satisfying and feels earned and by the end you will feel you've gone on a journey with her as she rises to the top of her tribe and proves without a shadow of a doubt that she's a Predator herself.… Expand

It does have a few of issues but it was not the usual heavy virtue signalling turd that the entertainment industry has been blasting out of their backsides for the last couple of years. If I am brutally honest with myself after watching the trailers I had already "pre-hated" this film and expected the story to be "strong independent native American woman, perfect at everything and only held back because of the men of her tribe, has to fight against adversity when she encounters an even bigger threat, white men. Also there is a predator in it". The trailers were so bad that I even expected Naru to team up with the predator to fight the evil colonialists. But this was not the case, Naru does go on a bit of heroes journey, she is a bit of crap hunter in the beginning, the dialogue is a bit clunky but it does not have to resort to belittling all men in order to show that Naru has strengths, her brother is clearly portrayed as a likeable character as well as a stronger hunter and fighter, sure most of the characters are forgettable fodder and are purely present just to be torn apart by the Predator and the white colonialists are written to be obviously unpleasant and unlikable but they are all French, so not too difficult to suspend your disbelief there.
It is no way a perfect film, some of the CGI is TV quality levels, but it was not the franchise killer that I expected it to be, whilst it does not really add anything new it does not crap all over any of the previous canon like Disney usually froths at the mouth with excitement to do, it has a couple of nods to the other films and is leagues better than the last Predator film that was released. Naru is certainly no Ripley, but at least she is also not another Captain Marvel either. Much better than I expected.… Expand

We also have to be honest, mostly those who call it the best installment in the franchise since the original. It's not like Prey had a mountain to climb to top that. The one thing I find really problematic for the Predator mythos is that basically anyone can kill them.
I mean with all its technology and brute strength, you have a young Comanche girl with arrows, spears and a 17th century weapon to defeat it, that doesn't look good for your villain. I was entertained enough and that's all that counts considering I had no expectations before I started watching it. Needless to say, it's worth a look.… Expand

So many great ideas, nice visual, like great new elements in the design for the Predator. Still, Predator 1-2 is better for me. Possibly I could go on long why but probably main reason for me is because in Predator 1-2 we had not just cool action scenes but also short but many little silly scenes with some smooth one-liners we still like to quote from P1-2.
I miss this absurd, silly, morbid scenes, & one-liners from all of the new, latest predator movies, so not only from PREY. Anyway, in overall PREY is a decent addition for the Predator Universe, really slick movie with some really great action scenes. 9/10 for me in a nutshell, I enjoyed & definitely will rewatch in the future.

You just can't please some people but trust me when I say this is a great movie, better than the past 3 movies in the franchise. Usually I respect other people's opinions but every negative review I've seen in this section has been either completely biased or just sexist, instead of calling it "woke" when ya'll clearly don't know the definition of "woke", just admit you hate female main characters or maybe just DON'T watch the movie if you think it's "woke".

This should net a lot more work for the talent involved. It's a solid genre picture that delivers well on the premise of Predator vs. Native American tribe, which is a very cool idea. Sometimes cool screenplay ideas don't survive the rigorous detail required to flesh them out into actual films, but this one manages by keeping true to what makes the idea cool and paying it off repeatedly. Prey could achieve cult classic status particularly due to its unfortunate distribution fate. Without getting into the corporate politics of why this wasn't released in theaters, I'll just say that it's a theater-worthy experience unlike many movies which wind up with a similar fate.… Expand

Some of the best artThe only thing that really stuck out for me was the animal CGI isn't very well done. I'm not sure if it was a budget thing or they just didn't care, but the Predator and everything about how this one functioned ruled. Some of the best art design all around for everyone in the cast and especially the Predator. On the positive side the movie does not overstay its welcome. Sadly though it was over before I felt it really started. There is even a key moment that can be missed in the animated end credits that explains how the flintlock pistol makes its way through the ages. (Because it recaps the movie it's an almost blink and you'll miss it moment right as that ends.) The pacing and narrative is done very nicely as this is a really great example of showing verses telling the story. However, this is one film where I felt like a little more dialogue would have been welcome. There were a few confusing moments near the end of the film that I had to guess as to what was happening. If you are a fan of the Predator franchise then I don't think this disappoints.… Expand

People who are putting bad and negative reviews most probably haven't even watched the film, they probably just watched the trailer or just first 30 minutes of the film which was a bit weaker in my opinion, but it gets better afterwards.

The Predator fights a wild Bear, now that was badass! This film is really awesome. It had everything I was hoping to see in a Predator movie.

The story was really well paced, although I think first 30 minutes could have been a little bit more polished, but no complaint cause after that the film just starts giving you what you've been waiting for to see in a Predator movie. There's a lot of surprises and awesome badass, action sequences that feels really well thought out and I couldn't help but notice 'The Revenant' vives, which is a good thing of course. the ending was a bit rushed, could've been better. The Comanche tribe shown in the film felt too modern which made the feel of the film a bit dull.… Expand

This is just as good as the original Predator film if not better in some areas. The cinematography, visual effects, and music are all honestly better than the original film with the cinematography itself especially standing out as one of the better shot films that have come out in 2022. The original Terminator film has a better lead character and better action though. That’s not to say that Amber Midthunder’s character is bad. In fact, her character is honestly pretty great but I prefer Arnold’s character just a little bit more. Midthunder does a great job in the role and she is one of the best parts of the film. This film does have some similar issues to the original film in that the side characters aren’t fleshed out enough, although they are more fleshed out here than in the original film, and the film doesn’t become truly great up until the last 30 minutes. This film however doesn’t have the issue of not knowing what the film wants to be like the original. Prey definitely is very slow at the start but once the actual predator shows up then it kicks into high gear. The death scenes here are particularly brutal at points and the action is really great all around especially the final action scene. I love how Naru has to find a way to kill the predator using its own weapons as it really brought her character into her own and not in the shadow of Arnold’s from the original. If you like the original Predator movie then you’ll most likely enjoy this.… Expand

Any rating over 2 is a lie. This is a terrible movie. Do not believe the positive reviews. I saw the rating - started to watch it stopped it to double check the reviews to make sure that I had the right movie. Thought well maybe it just starts out weak. I put this hot garbage on again actually believing that it would get better. Trust me I wasn't expecting much. I have watched horrible movies before and plenty of them - I usually get to a point where I feel like I have invested too much time to stop the movie. There have been a handful of exceptions and this was one of them.
Watch it if you want to but remember I tried to save your valuable time. Tell you what go ahead and put it on but at that first sense of "I hope this gets better" remember that it doesn't and turn that crap off. Then go watch the first Predator or the Second one or the third Predator.… Expand

Her brother's shown to be the better warrior but he still loses because skill and strength aren't enough!

It makes me sad to see this didn't get a feature release because it's a great film, awesome action scenes, plays with expectations, has nods to fans without being in your face about it and the predator in this is the most brutal version so far.

As strong as the original and a beautiful and hopefully accurate display of the Comanche nation as well.

The pacing is excellent, with captivating cinematography that brings something very new to the series.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So much rubbish review. The movie is not woke.. It has good and bad things..
The bad things are
- The CGI is not A-grade.
- The english spoken language puts you off.
- Re-use of "If it bleeds we can kill it" was a poor move.
The girl does not kill the predator all alone. She gets plenty of help from "men" to weaken it.
It features a Predator that is less technologically equipped since we are 300 years back in time. No Zapper canon or explosives is used.
Its not perfect, but its far better than the garbage Shane Black released a few years ago.
Good entertainment flick. Plenty of blood and gore.… Expand

Good movie. Sure, the budget is probably small and I questions if a Comanche teenager could be that strong and agile than their men warriors. BUT this is a movie and why not to have something different....we had Arnold in the first one.

You would think by the 10s here this movie is a masterpiece. Don't get conned into watching it by that, the movie is an ok sci-fi flick, but not a 10. Rating it 0 to even out the reviews.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ignore the negative reviews completely. They're all written by thirteen year old virgins who hate women and think anti-slavery laws are 'wokism'. You know the type. None of them have seen a second of the film.

In truth there's nothing woke about it at all; the female character is convincingly inexperienced at first and manages to get by in fights by virtue of her opponents considering her non-threatening. Her brother is probably the most badass character in the whole film. 'Woke' is a meaningless word these days.

So the reason this film is so good is because it pares the mythology of the Predator back to the minimum: one Predator against the world. No Pred-dogs, no giant Predators, no Alien hybrids - just one unbelievably badass Yautja that carves its way through everything. It's an extremely simple setup, there's the barest hint of a plot - young comanche girl is underestimated and patronised by her tribe, she wants to complete the rite of passage that would allow her to become a hunter but is held back be everyone else, even her brother, who is an extremely successful hunter already. Predator arrives on the scene...all hell breaks loose. Add French colonialists into the mix and you've basically got an excuse for the Pred to chew through bodies in various inventively cool-looking ways.

One thing that's notable about Dan Trachtenberg(the writer and director of this movie, as well as the brilliantly entertaining The Boys tv show) is how good he is at conveying physicality in his work. He has an eye for a striking action shot and a brilliantly effective command of gore and violence. There are countless fantastic shots in this film; it really is just a long sequence of fantastic action scenes so don't come into it expecting any particularly good worldbuilding or characterisation(Why would you?) - what it does is dazzle you over and over with scenes that succeed in making the Predator genuinely scary and cool again. There's a particular scene early on that made me laugh out loud and replay it at least three times before I moved on: it's the reveal scene of the Predator(who has never looked cooler either by the way; with a face mask that looks like it was modeled on something from a Benicio del Toro movie and a lean, swaggering gait - the rendering on his face is excellent, which alas can't be said for some of the other CG in the movie) as it fights an eight foot tall grizzly bear. The bear and the Predator wrestle for a few seconds, the former lashing and biting at the Yautja as streaks of lurid green blood flash down his partially invisible body. The bear pushes the Predator down into the river and turns away assuming victory. Then we have a low camera angle as the Predator rises from the river slowly, not even facing the bear, which, enraged, charges at him to finish the job. We see it running at the Yautja as the latter looks at the camera, its invisibility camouflage flickering on and off ineffectively. And in one languid but swift movement the Predator step-rolls aside from the bear's path and with a ferocious right hook smashes it unconscious. It's an absolutely majestic shot, improved further when we see the camouflaged Predator hoiking up the bear's huge carcass onto its back and carrying it away, the grizzly's body seeming to hang in the air.

The film is full of moments like this. There are numerous scenes devoted to the wonderful tech that the Predator carries with it, including a ridiculous hunting net that pinions its luckless prey to the ground and shrinks around it, its razor sharp strings slicing through them and turning them into mulch. But the best is the fantastic Sekiro-like metal parasol-shield-blade it carries(and uses mainly to decapitate the villainous colonialists). Trachtenberg is just so good at this kind of stuff - and equally good at making you feel the weight and momentum of the violence, the Predator leaping towards the protagonist with such speed and ferocity you wince at how close it gets.

In all honesty it's a pretty predictable movie. Wisely it's not trying to be the next Annihilation or Arrival. It's an extremely lean action movie with a skeleton of a plot and barely any characterisation. But what it aims to do it does brilliantly and it has some of the most punchy visceral action you'll see anywhere right now. And perhaps most importantly it succeeds in making the Yautja a credible action movie concern again, for the first time since the original film. After dog aliens that play fetch with grenades and lanky 'mega' predators that consider ten year olds with Asperger's to be worthy opponents, this film reminds us just what a one-alien army these things are when they're portrayed as they should be. Given how hit and miss the films have been it's probably too much to hope that this will result in a sea change in quality for the franchise, but all I can say is if Trachtenberg has any interest at all in making a sequel they should bite his hand off.… Expand

I really enjoyed this movie. Easily one of the best additions to the predator story, I enjoy the prequel setting. The lead female actor nailed it. Arguably the second best predator movie behind the original predator.

Lead actress and her brother are doing great job portraying their characters and the movie itself is really intense. I had a real blast, only downside was ugly cgi bear but even that was ok because his fight with predator was quite exciting. Also new look of alien creature was intimidating would love if it turned out to be a different species from the ones from other movies, crossover could have nice potential.… Expand

I urge anyone who is planning to watch this movie to watch the Comanchee language version, which can be found in the extras tab for Prey on Disney+
This is one of best movies I've seen and the best Predator movie by an order of magnitude.

Surprisingly good movie, it took them 30 years, but they finally realised the way to build a franchise around Predator is to put the creature in different time periods dealing with different cultures.
