I cannot believe what has been done (with such great amount of money) to this film? It really could have been a great one, if only the script had been written with much more simplicity. Because, it has some quality : the photography is superb, and the predators are really something! Really awesome! But, as for me, two things are really missed, two things that I am attached to : the script is stupid, and the character are as uninteresting as possible. First, you feel like watching a bad episode of "Lost", then, after the classical presentation of the character, it is just being boring, one or two action scenes, then you can sleep till the end. Secondly, I really like Adrian Brody, but I really felt like slapping his character in the movie : a sort of mix between a skinny Rambo, and a pretentious Sherlock Holmes. Grrrrr, my god, how did he know so well everything? Had he read the script between his fall and his awakening? Also, the other character really lack interest. Some are just bad, but you don't feel like liking them, the others you just don't care. No Bill (1987's Predator), no one attaching or funny or anything... It's all a mess, till the end that is (I don't know why), suddenly interesting, and funny (if you except some king of crappy twist-plot...) I strongly recommend to forget there was a first Predator in 1987 if you want to appreciate a bit this one. Because it's all really a disappointment
