    Well again, it could have been an interesting dynamic. Then again, as an action franchise, that would have probably given too much depth to the character. At the very least I wished they would have explored it to perhaps use as a tactical advantage against the Predators.


    I'm really surprised at the positive reviews. It was like Predator 1.5.... too many things similar to the first movie for my taste.

    Saw the movie today. Thought it was very solid. Give it 2.5 out of 4 stars. Wanted to see a few more Predator battle scenes than we did but overall the movie was good. I thought Brody did a good job in his role. Look forward to a Predators sequel! =)

    I checked it out a couple of days ago and really enjoyed it. It reminded me of the original in a few parts, but all in good ways. I liked Brody's job as well as the sniper chick.

    It looks like they left the door open though. I hope they don't screw it up again.

    If they do a sequel I be very interested to see what they do, since they'll be free to trying to get ring up the Original in everyone's mind.

    However, Robert Rodriguez has said that'd he be very interested in a prequel following Fishburn's character.

    Just saw this. Was pretty bored half way through. Brody looked badass, but the characters played by Topher Grace and Lawrence Fishburne were just weird and unnecessary. The movie reminded me of Terminator Salvation...just a bunch of action, not much sense.

    I'm a little over halfway through this one - it just lacks something - it's ok but could have been much better. The characters are completely forgettable.
