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 a 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.
I love the Predator franchise, almost as much as I love the Alien franchise. That being said, this latest addition to the franchise is hands down one of the worst movies of 2018. It's sad too, I actually was intrigued with the story, particularly a couple of the twists it throws in. And yet, the humor (and dialogue in general) and some of the acting from several of the characters brought it down so much that I almost walked out from the theater. Pretty much all of the characters were bland and uninteresting, making me not care about any of them, especially when some of them died. Thankfully, I only paid two bucks for a ticket instead of full price. Otherwise, I would've been even more ticked off.
There really isn't much, if anything, positive I can say about The Predator. Despite all of the crap, though, I actually hope there's another one that involves one of the bigger twists from the movie. I won't specify what, but the twist was interesting enough for me that I would like to see more.
