You one ugly motha.....

Rating: 9/10 (27 May 2018)

Folks who have seen this original and its multiple sequels or spinoffs will agree that Dutch ( Arnie ) versus the Predator is unbeaten. When we see something new yet possibly and not remotely real, we know it is our money's worth. The jungle is also unfamiliar for many , even those soldiers and mercenaries. Suddenly the team of Dutch had been disappearing one by one. I am one of those who three decades ago can't fathom what species The Predator was, and the musclemen might not be big names as Arnie and Carl Weathers , still - this ensemble works for us , the audience , as they are building up the action and tension one by one for us. The fight scenario between Dutch and the Predator is the best to boot, with the mud camouflage washing out , the trap which that thing somehow figured out, and Dutch's short victory over it as he also has to run the hell out to save himself from the nuclear level explosion. Indeed there are exaggerations but never mind that, we still think of that film to this date and never get tired of seeing it over and over again.
