SYNOPSIS:

Harrigan, a brash policeman who is fighting drug lords in a decaying L.A. finds that the criminals are being killed in a very odd fashion. The federal authorities keep telling him to stay out, even though his own men are also being killed. He catches sight of a nearly invisible alien hunter who is searching for trophies. Harrigan injures the creature and pursues it, becoming the hunter.

Starring Danny Glover and Kevin Peter Hall

not as good as the first, but not as bad as many sequels (yes Highlander II, this means you...

Let me just say that I loved Predator.

I do not love Predator 2. Despite the big onscreen presences of Danny Glover and Gary Busey, I just never got into this film.

Can't say exactly what it lacks, but it does lack. . .something.

Sequels are never as good as the first one. I definitley liked Predator 1 better.

Phlub · 20th March 2002, 10:34 PM

Predator 1 was by far a better movie. But Predator 2 was still a spectacular film. Trust me you will never find a bigger Predator fan then me!

Phlub · 22nd March 2002, 12:27 AM

Well trust me. I watch Predator at least twice a week. And I can say the script word for word. I am working on backwards right now.:rolly2:

Chilly · 22nd March 2002, 09:27 PM

Phlub · 24th March 2002, 08:35 PM

Chilly that is why we have www.amazon.com so then you can get Predator 1 or 2 on video or dvd!

I agree with Curupira, sequels are never as good as the originals. Though I did like Predator 2. (Not as much as the original).

Talking about it is making me wanna go watch it, again.

Chilly · 30th March 2002, 11:31 PM

Phlub · 6th April 2002, 01:14 AM

Twice? I watch my copies about 4 times a week.

Drone · 14th February 2003, 08:36 PM

But, see, this movie is still cool. There are some cool moments and I like it good.

Predator 2 is such a underrated film, but it's understandable. The first one was, in fact, the first, and the scenario for that film is original and just plain entertaining. Predator 2, for me anyway, is my favorite though, but I admit, it lacks the originality of the first.

So the reason it's my favorite, well, I suppose the action scenes, and of course, the display of the alien skull. That was just plain fantastic, for the filmakers to do that.

What's this? Not much respect for Predator2? You gotta love a movie that never stops to catch it's breath. Ultra violence from the first frame to the last!!! It's like a boxing match without rounds! It's wonderfully beautifully grotesquely violent! That movie is like therapy.
