An action and horrifying movie that follows Rory McKenna, a young boy who is about to destroy the human kind accidentally. He called alarm that brings back the Predators to Earth, those brutal creatures that want to end the human kind. Meanwhile, there is a hope on a team of ex-soldiers and a science teacher to stop them.
A Predator movie lives or dies based on how cool and intimidating its title character is ... and that's where The Predator proves woefully inconsistent.
The Predator is a flawed actioner, but a strong cast and some Shane Black magic give it a sparkle that has been lacking from recent attempts to revive the killer aliens.
What Black's movie really has going for it is pace. It starts with a crash, followed swiftly by a bang and vast swathes of wallop. The relentlessness doesn't allow you any time to catch a yawn, but it's also not too conducive to tension or suspense.
