Rating: Summary: Pretty good. But you can't compare it to the original. Review: Most people will say that Predator 2 stinks. But there is more to it than that. No sequal is better than the original, but i think this movie is a fantastic effort in bringing back the hunter. Great special effects, they explored a new range of predator weapons, eg. Smartdisk: The smartdisk is one of the predators only thrown weapons. It is an extremely dangerous weapon. The weapon itself resemlbes a bladed frisby with finger holes in the middle. Combi-Stick: The Combi-stick is basically a hightech polearm. It can expand and retract. When fully retracted the weapon is about 2 feet in length. When fully extended the weapon is 6 feet long.This movie is a definate must see for every predator fan. But i am busting to see a sequal, Predator 3, when will it arive?
Rating: Summary: Oh my god! They killed Gary Busey! Those bastards! Review: When I watched this movie, I was pretty young. But I remember it dawning on me about 30 minutes into the movie that Arnold was just not going to show up.
Rating: Summary: Nothing special Review: A good watch. On a down side this movie is way too derivative of its predessesor.
Rating: Summary: Eh, not great, but entertaining Review: This movie, while definitely not the first one, has its own interesting scenes. Like the Predator in the bathroom fixing his wounds. But, this movie just wasn't the same as the first one. It wasn't as "edge-of-your-seat," nor did the Predator look as good. Worth your money, however.
Rating: Summary: this movie is lame Review: this the film that began all the lame and boring comic books and video games and novels. i like the first one better and say it begins and ends with 1. first off, the predators look nothing like the evil hunter in the first one, they have toooo much dark color to them, their helmets are comic looking, the gear sucks, and they look stupid. remember in 1 how real the hunter looked? when he took his helmet off his skin was palish and his tusks where small and closed in tight on his mouth. this movie is full of hollywood shlock and bad acting and yeah right material. it looks more like a excuse to show off special effects.
Rating: Summary: "He's in town...with a few days to kill..." Review: Yep, this description said it all! I have seen this movie too many times to mention and I STILL love watching it! The movie starts out fast and furious and there is so much action in this movie that once it starts, it DOESN'T let you catch your breath! Danny Glover may not be your first choice when thinking 'action hero' but he does a VERY convincing job. Bill Paxton plays a street-smart, wise-cracking cop and delivers a fun character (as usual) that dies (as usual). As, Gary Busey plays the testosterone injected Special Ops officer that thinks he can actually CAPTURE the deadly Predator! The AWESOME Predator effects (cloaking, vision modes) make this movie shine (not to mention the AMAZING number of bullets fired in this movie, DAMN!) The direction, lighting, fog and camera movement in the final showdown onboard the Predator's ship is pure genius as it makes you feel like you are actually "there" on an alien craft watching this galactic fight to the death, AWESOME! For any self-respecting 'Predator' fan, this is a MUST SEE!!!
Rating: Summary: Predator 2 has all the movie elements--gore and violence. Review: Predator 2 is a no-brainer, but is done very well. The special effects are fantastic and the realism of L.A. is depicted very well. P2 has all the movie elements: Sex (not even 10 seconds worth) a little nudity, lots of gore and graphic violence, tons of adult language, some drug use, and a lot of skinned bodies. Exactly L.A. The summary? Not much. The predators land and have a killing spree in a concrete jungle. Some will like while others will be disgusted from all the realistic gore.
Rating: Summary: Good, but not better Review: How the hell can you people think this is better than the first? The original Predator was one of the best movies of all time. This movie doesn't come close, but is very good......
Rating: Summary: This is a pretty good film. Review: I really did enjoy this film. It was in an intersting setting and had a very good plot. However i do think that they should of gone into more about the predator. I liked the end especially when you see the alien scull in the display cabinet. They should really think about making an alien versus predator film. Definetly a must see for all sci fi film buffs.
Rating: Summary: Not as good as the first Review: I don't know why, I just simply didn't like this as much as the first. When watching the first, not only was I really entertained, I really wondered about the Predator: its history, where it comes from, etc. I thought maybe the second would address this: perhaps giving us a glimpse at his home planet. But it didn't: the closest is when it shows the inside of his ship. And I just can't understand Danny Glover being the one to save earth from an interplanetary hunter. Maybe Arnold's acting wasn't as good, but at least he looks the part. And I also thought setting it in a city would make it better: more targets. But it didn't. It was good in places, and showed off more Predator weaponry, but I still have to recommend the first.
