I had high hopes of this film based on the rottentomatoes.com reviews and what my friends had been saying. It started off a little a slow as the character introductions were going on and I thought that this was going to be a typical B-Movie film. But once the introductions were out of the way, Predators started to pick up.
There are a lot of similarities between the original Predator and this film - scenes, certain things the group does, lines, etc. But there are also some differences as well.
The point of this film was to entertain and thrill, and it did just that. I was not let down and it met my expectations. I think I agree with the other reviews that this is the best Predator film since the original.
