This film brings back a lot of memories. Not just the movie itself, but everything surrounding it. I remember renting The Predator PS2 game from Blockbuster with my dad, which clearly drew a lot of inspiration from this film. Sure, it’s over the top and has its share of corny moments, but I loved it. There’s something about 90s cityscapes, the color grading, the specific hues, the gritty aesthetic. We’ll probably never see captured quite the same way again.
The final shot has always stuck with me. It’s such a badass moment, not just visually, but in what it represented for the franchise. And honestly, the gore and disturbing scenes… surprisingly solid. A lot of people overlook them, but they really added to the atmosphere. Definitely becoming a comfort film for me.
