I missed this one, and I usually catch all Predator films. This one is done by Shane Black who was the first kill in the original. I thought the players weren't bad or chosen badly. I also think the story wasn't half bad. Certainly some of the dialogue was half baked. The action sequences were mostly computer done, but not terrible. There was enough money to get the ships, and human insertion into scenes serviceable. The Predators themselves weren't awful, but you could tell they weren't top notch like seen in bigger budget fare. It even had a half decent ending which Shane I think assembled a watchable movie for Predator fans. Keep in mind some of it comes off as a tv movie, but that's expected with cutting corners, and not the best of the best in the industry involved. I was always say there's a couple of interesting takeaways with these films no matter how bad. With this one there's not much. No real new tech, but it had a view of ship internals, Predator close-up without vest etc.
