The Predator's reviews
Media reviews
Fotogramas
"Excellent (...) Pure action cinema that enjoys its genre elements (...) It's the movie it should have never been filmed on a Hollywood that already is a specie in danger of extinction."
Roger Ebert
"With a fantastic cast and a fast rythm, this is exactly what you want from a movie called 'The Predator'."
The Hollywood Reporter
"Bigger, meaner, gorier, funnier".
Time Out
"Just this side of meta, the verbal action-sci-fi update loves telling you how much fun you're having".
ABC
"You go to watch 'Predator' for the same thing you go to watch 'One, two, three', for playing, not falling asleep and laughing (...) The cast is also smart, apart from effective."
El Periódico
"It includes so many characters and promising ideas that at the end it gives you the feeling of being more a sequence of funny scenes than a whole cohesive film."
Cinemanía
"More lethal that any other Predator: the studio changes leave without a central focus Shane Black's movie."
Variety
"Shane Black's reboot of a franchise he once acted in is loud, energetic, and near-senseless".
The Wrap
There are lots of jokes, even though they?re only sporadically funny. There are lots of action sequences, even though they?re edited haphazardly and sometimes hard to follow.
The Telegraph
A shrill, murky, retrograde bore.
Indiewire
"You can see what Shane Black was going for with his latest Hollywood sequel, but this compromised mess is the first bad film of his career".
The Playlist
"'The Predator' knows exactly what kind of movie it wants to be (...) It recreates the elements the audience liked on the original and, at the same time, it updates it for the modern era."
Clarin
"It never takes seriously itself, (...) There's also a flash of deepness, like when it is brought up what's the difference between a soldier and a killer. Ask for more is too much."
