Predator: Badlands

Great sifi movie. With a lot of humor and a new view of the Predator universe. The Genna planet is amazing, with death chalenges everywhere. I really enjoy this movie with my family anda i will see it again.

The people talk about the fans... What fans they are talking about? I´m a fan of predator and enjoy this new aproach as well. Go to cinema and enjoy a fantastic sifi adventure.

It's finally here, a Predator movie that doesn't take itself too seriously, yet remains incredibly well-made and thoroughly entertaining, Dan Trachtenberg, who already delivered the most serious and still the best Predator film to date with Prey, is clearly having a blast with Predator: Badlands, from the very first scene, the movie hooks you with one of the most exciting and promising intros in the franchise.

This is the closest we've ever gotten to seeing the Predator as an actual character, complete with personality, language, and depth, and it works remarkably well, adding to that, Elle Fanning is a great addition to the film, and the little creature named Bud also brings unexpected charm to the film.

Besides being one of the most excitingly entertaining films of the year, Predator: Badlands, in my opinion, the most wholesome buddy cop movie i've seen in a while, the beautifully shot, vast, and dark Predator world gives off Dune vibes for me, while the introduction of fascinating new creatures evokes a touch of Avatar, i genuinely adore the world building they've did in the film, it's visually stunning.

The action and fight sequences are exciting, and the Predator is as badass as ever, while the pacing slows down in the second half, overall, Predator: Badlands is pure fun, exciting, and wildly entertaining, i wouldn't mind another installment, as long as Dan Trachtenberg returns to direct it, because honestly, the best Predator movies are the last three, all under his direction.

...that's because the Predator has gone through Disneyification: make it more humorous and palatable for children, making the Predator safe enough to watch as a family viewing, yeah I know it sounds ridiculous!

It was like a marvel superhero film mixed in with sci-fi adventure and the typical marvel like coming of age tale for a young superhero. Certainly doesn't capture the horror and tension of Predator 1, 2 or even Predators (2010), if that's what you were hoping for, but it was never built up to be like that. At best, I appreciate there's another different and decent take on the Predator franchise (just like Predator: killer of killers), too much of the same can be boring.

I think Prey is better with it's story and soundtrack (and wish it was released in the cinema). Predator Badlands mildly expands on the lore, the main two actors perform their roles well and the film is a nice visual spectacle, minus the heavy and noticeable CGI. Though none of this is worth paying a premium screen for (I saw it in a isense screen) let alone rush out to a normal screen. You won't miss out if you wait for it on streaming. 6/10, it was a different and decent take on the Predator franchise but I don't think it's memorable or has rewatchability like 1, 2, Predators and Prey. Predator Badlands is a one time watch.

Let's be honest this is just a mix of Jurassic park, Avatar, Starwars all wrapped into one. With a predator falling in love with new pronoun. Hollywood really you need to wake up and go back to the 80s and 90s. We're just getting directors because they come from a certain place and not looking at true cinema.

YEESSSS!!! As a big fan of the original 1987 Schwarzenegger movie, I have seen all the Predator (and Alien) movies they have put out...including the ones that were awful and wasted my time (i.e. Requiem).

This "Badlands" movie, "Killer of Killers", and "Prey" have all fully resurrected the fandom's interest in wanting more again, in lieu of being okay if the franchise died. Trachtenberg single-handedly brought the series back to life...it is in good hands.

Still connected to the Weyland-Yutani Industries (see Alien series), this flick totally kicks ass with action, believable CGI, great sounds, cool scenery, a little comic relief, villains, unlikely friendships, adaptation-evolving theme, etc. Production, cinematography, plot...totally spot on. See it in the IMAX if you can!!! You are totally cheering for the Yautja. I thought I would hate the Thia character...but she/synth keeps it grounded and tied back perfectly to earth and the human's need for consumption. I think both the Alien and Predator universes still have more to give.

BEST to worst of the Predator series...(in my opinion): 1. Predator (1987), of course, gotta let the original stand alone.

2. Tie: Killer of Killers (2025) & Predator- Badlands (2025) 3. Prey (2022) 4. Predators (2010) 5. Alien vs. Predator (2004) 6. The Predator (2018) 7. Predator 2 (1990) 8. Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (2007)...worst ever.
