Predator - Upgrade

It is a parody of Predator. Don't expect science fiction or story line just a poor action comedy film.

I guess the main question is why. Why did they make this sequel? Why was the story so bad? Why were the characters so bad? Why did they take a classic movie and dump on it? More importantly, why did I watch it?

Everyone believes they need to put a new spin on things as though movies need an upgrade. Shame on you Shane Black. Yeah, you added more flash, more bang, more action, more everything but it lacked other more important things: quality, character, uniqueness.

They tried to incorporate too many characters, too many fields of expertise, and too many variations of the original. It just ended up being a dismemberment orgy of red and green blood with tons of one-liners, quips, and inept government henchmen. It was terrible.

In an attempt to be bigger, badder, better it came off as a cheap cash grab trying to profit off of the sacred name of a legend. I watched. I didn't pay but I watched. I knew better but I thought just maybe... A guy can wish can't he?

Predator killer? Franchise killer...then again it died after Predator 2. As an original fan that has got to be the biggest, most disjointed load of tripe l have ever witnessed. I don't want to watch Aliens or Predator as a comedy. It's meant to be an action sci-fi horror. I'm not sure what Shane Black was trying to do here but it was awful and he should never be allowed near the Predator movies again. So much potential to be great but sadly a steaming pile of disappointment.

One step above parody. Without question it's the worst in the franchise.

Completely took the beauty away from this graceful monster. In a nutshell, it's so confused. Is it a marvel film is it a kids film or is it a genre film. The script is horrendous even though I did laugh, but that just made me sad. The characters are just, well pointless. There's zero suspense. There is some good ideas in there but nothing to redeem it. Why are studios so scared to just slow down and make a descent horror film. It's the predator fgs how can you screw this up, And a cgi predator that's just the worst way to go. If your not a fan don't bother if you are a fan definitely don't bother. Very very disappointing.
