The secret to fully enjoying this film, is not to take it too seriously. Let's face it, nothing here is believable or realistic and is purely for fun and effect.
And fun it was! This is a very enjoyable horror comedy in a similar style to the 2006 Australian film 'Black Sheep', just not as satirical. 'Prey' was more suspenseful with nail-biting moments and quite a lot of gore. As for the humor, it was actually really funny and worked well. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and their back stories and Sophie van Winden was a likable lead.
The film has a great climax with a stunning twist ending. As I said, don't take it too seriously and you will have fun with this little film. (If you prefer a serious lion film, rather watch 'The Ghost and the Darkness'.)
Would I watch it again? Yes!

Creepy and eerie film with chills , thrills , scary attacks and lots of blood and gore. Furthermore , adding some brief touches of black comedy .The enormous lion delivers the goods with hair-raising chills, full of scares when the huge creature shows up and suddenly attacks .The lion images are made by a mix of digital special effects , C.G. and was also built animatronic for the close-up frames, creating a well-made manually operated lion. While the scenes appearing running and attacking in full were made by computer generator such as the pursuit set piece through Amsterdam when the monstrous lion chases the delivery boy on the scooter by the river .
It contains colorful and brilliant cinematography .

Uncaged is a nice re-make of everybody's favorite man eating shark movie. If you liked the one with the fish wait 'til you see the one with the cat. Thumb's up!
The story isn't that bad and killer lion are rarely uses in horror movies. The opening does a good job setting up the arrival of the lion and there's a couple of suspenseful scenes when the lion appeared. But the story is mostly weak because its pretty predictable and it mostly the characters trying to figured out how to stop it. Most of the plans are done by the side characters and most of the time it doesn't work at all. I also found the twist revealed near the end to be predictable and pretty obvious.
One thing I enjoyed in the movie is chase scenes where the characters are either running away or is hunting after it. I found those scenes to be enjoyable and suspenseful.

Also how the lion gets inside a moving tram is beyond my understanding.
The film has moments of tension, lots of kills, one pretty disturbing scene regarding a small kid n cool effects.
In my opinion i feel the director Dick Maas (i have enjoyed his The Lift) is very underrated.

- WissenswertesRealizing that using a real, living lion was not possible, and since filming with wildlife is prohibited in the Amsterdam city area, the crew contacted Dutch animation director Erik De Boer, whose company was responsible for the computer-generated tiger in Life of Pi: Schiffbruch mit Tiger (2012). However, De Boer calculated that one scene alone with a fully computer-generated lion would cost about a million Euros (one-third of the entire budget). The crew then turned to a Dutch special effects company, who built a very detailed, manually operated animatronic lion for the close-up scenes. A computer-generated lion was used for a few scenes that showed the creature in full.
- PatzerThe police official, Mr Zalmberg, is introduced as the head of the investigation unit (of the Amsterdam police department), which has the rank of a commissioner. His shoulder boards belong to rank of head commissioner, or chief of police.
