Prey (2022)

4/5

What a lovely film. After years of mediocrity, I'm glad to finally see a decent Predator film. This is a much-needed boost for the struggling franchise.

One of my favorite things about it is how Naru's development mirrors that of the Predator, but in reverse. Throughout the film, we see her observe, adapt, learn, and improve as a hunter, but we also see the Predator become increasingly reckless and sloppy.

All of the fight scenes were great, especially that cool single-shot scene between Naru and the French. The Taabe v Predator fight scene deserves a shout too. Taabe put up a great fight... who knows what would have happened if the predator hadn't chickened out and turned invisible.

Outside of the action, there's still plenty to enjoy. Beautiful cinematography and an amazing score.

It's not a perfect film, but it hit almost every note I was hoping for. I really enjoyed it.

there's obviously something very different about this predator. It leaves tracks, has no sense of honour, fights dirty and like you said, very reckless.

It's a teenage predator. It was literally its first time on Earth, and it had no idea who the planet's apex predator is, so it was learning. However, being a teen warrior, it is a reckless predator who enjoys the kill more than the hunt.

same can be said with the predators in AVP. They were teenagers yet they killed with skill and not as reckless as this predator in Prey. Though their lack of experience was present as it resulted in the death of two of them, still you can't compare their skill to that of this predator.

If you put this predator against any alien, it will lose, woefully I might add.

I still can't get my head around why they change its weapons.

"It's just a movie," is another way of saying "it's my opinion." It's an excuse people use when they can't justify their position, but still want to eat their cake and have it. Using bland assertions as a shield for criticism isn't good enough.

AVP's predators are adults and experienced. They've visited Earth before. They knew their craft, they knew their target, they were well-organized, they had a code, and they were well-versed in human behavior. In fact, AVP revealed that the Predators use Earth as a sort of training/hunting ground where they breed and hunt the Xenomorphs (aliens).

In comparison, the Predator in Prey is very young, inexperienced, and possesses a teenage angst that the ones in AVP do not. If he had lived, he would have improved and returned to Earth more experienced and mature.

AVP predators aren't adults. They were teenagers who came to Earth for their rite of passage to be blooded, which of course is the hunting and killing of aliens (xenomorph) this was told in the movie. It was the very reason they weren't allowed to carry their plasma caster in the first place, they had to earn the rite to carry them.

Scar, Celtic and Chopper the adolescent predators were naive. Their behaviour in handling the aliens showed it. Scar was the only one who actually killed aliens, while the others failed and got killed.

The rite of passage which prove they were teenagers was told by Sebastian to Lex where she exclaimed in awe to the fact that they (predators) were teenagers.

In comparison, the Predator in Prey is very young, inexperienced, and possesses a teenage angst that the ones in AVP do not. If he had lived, he would have improved and returned to Earth more experienced and mature.
I can but say the behaviour shown by that predator in Prey goes against what predators stand for. Predators don't live tracks behind. Even the one in Predator 2, that hunted in the city never left any track. If not for the technology available at the time, it can't be traced, talkless of learning it's habits.

AVP is garbage anyways. Until Prey (2022), the last decent Predator film had Arnold Schwarzenegger in it.

I like how Prey (2022) approached the idea of a young Predator trying to complete a rite of passage while being inexperienced. It started by killing and skinning a snake before realizing it wasn't the apex predator, then it killed a wolf and took the skull as a trophy, but later it met, fought, and killed a Bear, and finally encountered man, where the fun truly began.

It's a new take on a stagnating franchise, and I hope it's the start of something great.

True. So true but don't forget, the predators have been coming to earth since before man started wielding guns, so they damn well know who the apex predators on Earth were.

I'm sure you know the franchise have been sold to Disney or whatnot that's why they're coming with this version. Still the Yautja are the greatest hunters of all time. Even their teenagers are a force to reckon with.

For me, I've enjoyed every predator movie. I'm a big fan of "the demon who makes trophies of men".

Omo just two cast and director don collect $50mn dollars. It's obvious the cast will collect most of the production money but this $150mn tag seems excessive for a Joker sequel.
Should have been around $100mn. This new budget makes it even harder to profit.

Hardly see it replicating 2019's magic. Highest gross o see for now is around ,$700mn of it really performs. But Well..... It did overperformed and surprised most people then.

Carter 2022....6/10

This movie is all action and very little substance...the plot is pretty confusing and hard to make sense of sometimes...and it's obvious that there is plan for a sequel based on the ending

The action sequence is all over the place...so many drone shots, 3D shots...
At times it's hard to make sense of what is happening...and the camera work can get you dizzy a lot

the camera work reminded me of THE VILLAINESS FROM 2017
I did little check and found it was by the same director...however Carter failed where Villainess succeeded


While Villainess wowed everyone with incredible action shots, creative shots that didn't feel repititive,
On the other hand Carter was just so repititive with the camera work even when it was unnecessary

THE VILLAINESS was clearly a success and even JOHN WICK took inspiration from some of it's action scenes
But I doubt Carter would inspire anyone with how over the top the camera work is

Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Baddestguyp(m): 1:52am On Aug 12, 2022
