Depredador: Cazador de asesinos

Predator: Killer of Killers brings fresh animation and brutal, bloody action to the franchise - but the story lacks real substance.

The gritty, raw animation creates a strong atmosphere, backed by heavy textures and punchy sound design. When fists fly and blades clash, it feels impactful.

But the anthology format holds it back. Each part is short, and there's no time to build emotional weight. Especially in Part 1 (The Shield). However, the story itself feels generic and predictable.

The characters? Mostly flat archetypes. Character deaths feel hollow, and themes like teamwork were presented flat.

Part 1 (The Shield) - The fight against the Predator felt too smooth, as if every move had been carefully planned and choreographed.

Part 2 (The Sword) - stands out with its feudal Japan setting and a visually impressive fight, particularly due to the conflict between two brothers.

Part 3 (The Bullet) - Creatively staged and visually appealing. The Story reminds me a lot of classic movies.

Scores: The Shield - 5.5/10 The Sword - 7.5/10 The Bullet - 7.0/10 The Finale - 6.5/10

Overall : 6.5/10

A visual treat with raw energy - just don't expect depth.

I was skeptical about an animated Predator movie. But the animation was very good and the style lends its self very well to the subject matter.

It seems to be an anthology but its all tied together at the end and leaves things open for much more in the future.

Speaking of tying things together there are interesting references to the other films and hint at a much wider universe that we hopefully get to see.

Don't be put off that its a cartoon its much cheaper to tell a story this way than with live action so more chance of followups.

In Dan Trachtenberg it seems they have someone who can take the Predator franchise in a much better direction than it had been going prior to Prey.

From the animation, cinematography, choreography, score, messaging, and overall themes this movie does it all by sticking to a familiar formula and character tropes in a flawless way that makes for what unironically might be the best predator movie. The pacing is also very good for Its 80 minute run time. The film is so good at conveying what it's trying to be that for a quarter of the runtime there is little to no dialogue and yet you understand everything. Whether you're a fan of the predator franchise, wanting to get into it, or just want to turn on a gory, fun animated flick this film has it all!

Idk, it's fun to watch but ultimately it makes predators look weak!! Suggests the predators don't know wtf they're doing. It should be RARE for a predator to lose. Same reason John wick 3 bothered me, this super strong character gets kinda beat up then kicks the others ass but let's them live so they can keep fighting only to lose? Predator doesn't respect weakness so they should've ALL lost...

Disappointing, wanted deadliest warrior but with predator just to see who did best against them, but we got some bigger story that was kinda lame.

*takes deep breathe* guess I can fly this spaceship now >:(

I recently watched Predator: Killer of Killers (2025) on Hulu. The storyline follows Predator warriors on Earth across different countries and historical eras, battling human warriors to the death.

The film is co-directed by Dan Trachtenberg (Prey) and Joshua Wassung, and features the voices of Michael Biehn (Aliens), Doug Cockle (Band of Brothers), and Rick Gonzalez (Old School).

I really loved this. Every segment felt solid, and the ending was tremendous. Funny enough, I spent most of the movie underselling the writing-there were even a few moments that made me roll my eyes-but the conclusion pulled everything together in a way that was much smarter than I expected.

The animation is excellent, with striking visuals: the flying scenes, blood effects, fire, and fight choreography all looked fantastic. The initial Viking sequence was easily my favorite. I also appreciated how each segment included its own human conflict or war that naturally led into the showdown with a Predator.

The different Predator designs-variations in size, shape, and weaponry-were cool and added depth to the world.

In short, Predator: Killer of Killers is a unique and worthwhile addition to the Predator universe. I'd score it a strong 7.5 to 8 out of 10 and highly recommend it.
