How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A relentless cat-and-mouse game where humanity's most lethal killers become the hunted, escalating from tactical advantage to desperate survival on alien terrain. It's a high-octane exercise in stripped-down tension and visceral action.

Reviews
I liked this more than I expected, because I didn't really like the first two, and people seem to really like the first one. I am into Topher Grace though, and I was very excited to see him. His presence is enough to make this my favorite Predator movie so far. The twist with his character sounds good in theory, but some of the dialogue around it was a little weird. Why would anyone want to stay on the planet?!
It was a bummer watching every character played by actors that I like die while Adrian Brody's character lived though. Also, Adrian Brody cast as the "tough guy" (literally, he is referred to as "the tough guy") is wild. I'm just not a fan.
PS: My husband picked this and said it's horror-adjacent, so I'm counting it as a Halloween watch, but just know that I will generally not consider it a Halloween movie.
