Finally. Since Arnold’s predator, this is the best one we have got and Dan Trachtenberg who made one of my favourites “10 cloverfield lane” exactly knew how to crack a predator movie with good enough ingredients. With right emotions, characters that I can care, massively engaging action set pieces throughout without any modern monster films cliches, thanks to the period it’s set in, that gave director to use different or age old factors to fight against predator. Also loved the way how they have clearly showed the killing mentality of a predator. It only hunts a hunter and not the prey. Like when mountain lion is chasing a rabbit, Predator kills the mountain lion and not Rabbit. This made me wonder whether predator would stay peacefully without any threat from people around it. Nice addition to this kinda movie which was unexpected. Overall It was super fun and a really satisfying watch.
