The characters were beyond annoying, completely unbelievable and constantly doing nonsensical things. Acting was horrendous with tons of forced humor and the narrative was so full of holes it almost felt like they were making things up as they filmed. Even the special effects were lackluster. Blows my mind the studio green lit this garbage. Shocking how far it misses the mark.

It was akin to having sand thrown in my eyes at gale force speed.

I’d take a paper cut between my toes before watching it again.

Man these reviews of Predator are really disappointing. On the one hand I know for absolute certainty that it will be absolute garbage but on the other hand I can't just not watch it can I? It is Predator, so I wll have to watch it at least once. Dammit.

Unless you wanna get upset I honestly wouldn’t bother. It makes the AvP films look like masterpieces. It’s really that bad.

I liked AVP I, but anything that could make AVP II look great would have to be such a steaming turd the likes of which mankind has never witnessed before.

Bumblebee (2018)

A Transformers movie that isn't terrible! I agree with others who have said the barrage of 80s songs within the first 30 minutes or so was overkill. 6/10

Aquaman. 7/10.

Fun movie, lots of action, a bit disjointed and the excessive CGI bothers me a bit. I get it, no way around it, just felt like watching cartoons at times.

Best DC movie in years.

Rambo III - 6/10

Rambo - 6.5/10

Liked them all. I think First Blood is the best in the series. It was ahead of its time in demonstrating the effects of PTSD.

I'm one of the local Predator nerds as you'll know..... And even I havn't watched it yet. Going on your reviews, I'll not rush.

Wasn't this meant to be a big "event" movie that kick started the franchise again?
