The Man, The Beast, The Legend

Rating: 10/10 (10 September 2009)

This piece of cinematography deserves its special place among the Hall of Fame but you already know that (for those who watched the movie). But the strange thing is people get mislead reading comments on this classic.
First of all, this movie is a complete masterpiece in terms of balancing components such as : plot, actor play, ideas developed , sense of atmosphere to thrill, to experience, to entertain , to make you want more of it. From the original joke-idea (read trivia) through all the shooting of the movie to its very this is an instant classic.
Secondly, this movie is not about some hardcore veteran soldiers on a deadly mission who occasionally got stuck in a deadly situation becoming prey of some deadly alien stalker. This movie is all about the classic action/thriller/horror ? recipe. Something the genre has lost over the years. It is all about the enthusiasm this movie was shot with thus becoming a legend. You who read this : Do you know anyone who disagrees this movie rocks and doesn't remember a single line from it ? The squad. Perfect in its simplicity. Everybody has his/her own story presented in a gentle way not to be too much of a drag in the plot. Colorful personalities as long they survive in the dangerous flora and fauna. Yes they are machos. The setting does not assume sissies with guns. From the josher Hawkins to the mysterious Billy. The leader of the pack (Dutch) loses all his men and as the soldier prime he gets to avenge his fallen brothers thus ensuring his own survival. Classic ! The predator. The "man of few words" in other words "the Beast". The e.t of modern cinema just to hold the highest score...Created by men to become a legend.
Are there still people who didn't see the movie ?
