Synopsis: Predator (1987)

Synopis: Sent to eliminate a gun-running camp in Central America, United States Major Dutch Schaeffer (Arnold Schwarzenegger) and his commandos get more than they bargained for when they cross paths with a mysterious assassin. As members of their unit begin to disappear, Dutch, Dillon (Carl Weathers), and Blain (Jesse Ventura) conclude that whatever is hunting them is not of this earth. Every attempt at a tactical defense is a defeated for Dutch and company and it is only in the last stretch of their race to safety that their suspicions are confirmed and they encounter the alien nimrod face to face.A summer box office smash, 1987's PREDATOR re-ignited an old trend of movies depicting aliens invading earth that began decades earlier with films like WAR OF THE WORLDS and INVADERS FROM MARS. McTiernan does a miraculous job of directing the "invisible" Predator. Furthermore, the special effects, which are stunningly subtle and never boisterous, make PREDATOR a strikingly contemporary sci-fi effort even amid today's techno-thrillers.

   1 of 1 Yahoo! Users found this Predator review helpful The only thing stopping me from giving this fim top marks is the technical quality of the finished product (watch carefully as Carl Weathers loses his arm- or rather gains a very obvious prosthetic while his real one is still visible!). All sadi and done however, the true testimoney to this films ingenuity is taking the physicaly toughest looking movie hero of our age and pitting him and his toughest friends against an alien being who could out armwrestle all of them at once and watching their over-technology dependant strategies fall apart. Now our hero must go back to first principles and use the one thing that makes us superior to the beasts of our world- his brain- as the role of hunter and hunted skips back and forth time and again. ...
