Prey Movie Review

praise directed by Dan Trachtenberg who made 10 Cloverfield Lane in his latest film in the Predator franchise this is the origin story of the predator in the world of the Comanche nation 300 years ago or nauru a skilled Female warrior fights to protect her tribe against one of the first highly-evolved predators to land on Earth Predator is one of the all-time greats one of my favorite action movies ever so my favorite movies. I watch it at least once a year Alan Silvestri is amazing score Arnold Carl Weathers it's just too good to be true Predator is so great and even though I really have a soft spot for predator to the other Predator movie is never really did it for me so everytime I hear they're working on a new one I get excited while also being simultaneously terrified prey is very different in the title I don't know what they would have done after predator Predator 2 predators and the Predators like where else predators and the Predators like where else do you go from there but putting the focus on the Comanche Nation taking guns for the most part out of play taking technology out of this is just a brilliant idea and I think that it's exactly what this franchise needed I really enjoyed this movie I don't know if I like it as much as 10 Cloverfield Lane but as far as Predator sequels go this is probably the best I mean the only competition it has for me is a movie that I'm very nostalgic for Predator 2 and if I'm going to be like kind of objective about it it's better than Predator 2 it's not just about taking something Back to Basics where that certainly is a strength what makes this movie so entertaining for me is the fact that I do care about the characters and the fact that Dan Trachtenberg clearly has a love for the Predator franchise are released the first movie and he understands what makes that movie so great it's just about suspension action and building it properly and understanding where a character is emotionally in a moment character is emotionally in a moment and connecting with them while something is hunting them or their hunting it and that's really all you have to get right and so many Predator movies have not understood that and this movie gets it but it's also very clever and that you have a character now Roku doesn't have any of the technology that the Predator has and the Predator has things that she doesn't have and you would think that that would immediately make the Predator be superior and in many ways strength-wise of course it is but for Nara she doesn't have any of the amazing technology that Predator has and she can use that against the Predator and so that Dynamic I thought was really fascinating this movie has a great message and that it's not about strength it's not just about physicality and even the first Predator movie that movie had the exact same message and a lot of people don't realize that because they see big boiled men with bicep shooting in the woods for three or four minutes and they don't realize that the whole point and the whole reason Predator is so great Old Point in the whole reason Predator is so great and so scary is not just because it's really entertaining but it's also saying look all of these men with their perfect athletic bodies are just being killed one by one by a superior being all of the Macho in the world cannot save them from this thing so it's no surprise to me this movie works because it understands that and understands that it's not just about showing someone who you would think would be really good at killing a superior alien intelligence in the first film Arnold has to ditch all of his modern-day stuff cover himself in mud and fight the Predator with sticks and leaves and shittin and this movie you have characters doing the same it's just different and I really enjoyed it I think it's great there's a few scenes in the movie that are all-time Predator scenes for me I've seen the movie twice now and there's a scene and burnt 4S with Ash everywhere you guys know I'm talking about you seen it I was one of those badass things I've seen in a predator movie I love it so much there were a few X though where the rules of what the Predator was Presto where the rules of what the Predator was doing didn't 100% track for me and is also a sequence for a character gets knocked unconscious in the middle of something pretty tense and someone else apparently carries them all the way back to their Village and then returns to the fights and the whole timeline of what exactly happened there doesn't really make sense to me there's little moments like that throughout the movie where it seems like there's a bit of missing information I think this movie is exactly what the Predator franchise needed it just had to do something different and honestly this is what I would like to see moving forward I don't need to see a continuation of various characters throw the predator and various timelines just have that motherfuker tear through people and all kinds of weird s*** Anything could happen with this timeline and I really really like what they did with this movie it is unfortunately on Hulu I say that because I really wish I had seen this in a theater I have no earthly idea why Disney chose to not release a new Predator movie in a theater like a new Predator movie would have done some business Maybe new Predator movie would have done some business maybe it just seems weird to me I don't understand what's going on with people now with streaming in the decisions they make especially with like the whole hbo.max Batgirl thing which is insane by the way that's a whole nother topic Jesus Christ anyway guys thank you so much as always for watching and I'm really excited to release a new video for you very soon I decided for the 20th anniversary of signs to go to Pennsylvania and make a video filming the locations where they shot the movie and I'm really excited to release that I had a great time making the video it was very special for me and that'll be up very soon thank you so much as always for watching look forward to more articles very soon.
