Cast: Sadrien Brody, Alice Braga, Laurence Fishburne
Director: Nimrod Antal
The “Predator” series that began in 1987 has come a long way after several glitches with the sequels. Now in “Predators” Adrien Brody takes over Arnold Schwarzenegger’s role and finds himself in a new land along with seven others.
Despite their killer’s instincts these mercenaries must fight together against deadly ‘aliens’ who have the power to hide themselves and read heat signals to spot their enemies.
The film is comparatively a simpler form of other “Predator” films. The jungle setting remains a vital part of the show and the pace of the story is given a push up.
However, the script includes many unnecessary scenes which only add to the already humdrum franchise. New characters have also been introduced to add interesting turns in the plot but they never really generate enough pressure to please the audience.
Despite several shortcomings one can still enjoy the far-fetched action scenes where there are large guns and gadgets.
“Predators” is not twice the fun watching “Predator”, yet if you shut your sense of reality you can be pretty satisfied.
