I hate kid actors and The Black Phone didn't change my mind.  Ethan Hawke is really good though.

The psychic sister is part of the short story too.  The movie felt very much like a short story.

Seeing this next week.  Waited too long to get screener tickets and it sold out.

Bad CGI or not this is going to be good. I believe in Dan Trachtenberg.

 

Looks like you were right Cato, rave reviews for Prey so far.

He certainly didn't.  And I think he has blood lust, because that was gory.

Good movie though.

Good movie though.

I get the feeling you'll appreciate this.

OK, marathon done. Power Rankings:

1. Predator (1987)
2. Prey (2022)
3. Predators (2010)
4. Predator 2 (1990)
5. The Predator (2018)

Things that never existed: AvP

The worst thing: the naming convention

Co-signed, though the gulf between Predator and Prey is wide.  Best action movie of all time.

Prey is pointless. It's just the same movie yet again. Predator v Arnie, Predator v Rastas, Predator v Xenomorph, Predator v Indians, it's the same thing over and over again.

Some things are stylishly done, and they get a bonus point for actually using indigenous actors rather than crowbarring stars into loincloths, but I found myself wondering whether there wasn't something rather more interesting I could have done with my 100 minutes.

You might be the only person on the planet asking for anything else from this movie.
