Hunters dressed like plants surprise this bird and grab his feet. How is that fun?
Q: How on Earth do you stop hunters from hunting?
A: Another planet, that’s how!
If you’re like me, you are a strict vegetarian eater who loves animals and only eats meat on holidays (Thanksgiving, Halloween, etc.) and even then only meat from stores because hunting causes a lot of suffering to animals. If you’re not a vegetarian, however, then the new movie Predators gives you a big reason to become one and not hunt: the plot of the movie.
Not all hunting is bad. Many vegetarians enjoy hunting for food, also.
Aidan Brody stars as a hunter who finds himself on a planet that is in outer space.He meets a bunch of other people (one of which is a girl–yay!) who don’t know each other and are basically strangers. These strangers are from all different races, countries and time zones. There’s a Mexican cowboy, a Japanese sword fighter, even a guy in a jumpsuit, so there is at least one person that people in the audience can identify with, but is also sad because most of them get killed. Eventually, they quickly realize that they are not alone on the planet because there are a bunch of animal people who, well, let’s just say they have a bone to pick with Mr. Brody and his new friends.
"I look scary with two mouths, but I can't chew bubble gum."
It’s hard to say that there are good guys and bad guys in this movie. Other movies like Dark Knight or Mama Mia are pretty clear about who is good and bad. Predators blurries the line between good and bad. On this hand, the audience likes Aidan Brody and his friends because they are people like us, but then we don’t like them because they are the type of people that use machine guns to hunt. On the other hand, there are the animal people who built a spaceship, got the heck off of Earth because of crazy hunters *SPOILER * and now, because they learned to make masks and gloves with computers in them, have kidnapped the very people that used to hunt them in order to have a fair fight. I liked this idea because it takes away the power of the hunter shooting a defenseless animal and, instead, gives the defenseless animal a helmet and laser guns to blow up stuff.
This monster shows the man where he found the sword.
While I wanted to support this movie because it has a good message about animals, I was mostly a little disappointed (sorry, Mr. Brody…) It’s not because the acting was bad or anything and I really liked that there was a girl character who could hold a gun just like the guys, but the animal people were, I dunno, kind of silly-looking. It was hard to tell what kind of animals they used to be. One of them was a walrus, but I couldn’t really tell what the others were supposed to be. They all just sort of looked like lizard people with weird fish mouths.
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat "Love you!" Bang! Bang! "Love you, too!" Pow! Pow! "Do something different with your hair?! Looks nice!" Kapow-w-w-w! "Thanks! You're sweet to notice!"
I would liked to have seen the hunters and the animal people find a tree that had magic fruit on it and when they ate it, they would go, “Wow, I am so full from this fruit and it gives me all of the nutrition I need on a daily basis” or something like that and then maybe show a list of local stores that sell fruit near each movie theater showing the movie. My other suggestion is that I wanted to see more of a love story between Aidan Brody and the girl. They’re obviously really in love, but we don’t get to see them kissing or even holding hands while they’re walking. I think more girls would have gone to see this movie if there had been more of a love story, but they probably went to go see Twilight again because there wasn’t.
So, while I really like the message of not hunting, the movie was not what I was hoping for.
I give Predators 2 out of 5 winks!

thanks Valerie! Im not a fan of Aidan Brody, i dont know why he just isnt very likeable to me, maybe its his hair, but was considering seeing this movie as i do enjoy a good scary movie. Im dissapointed there was no love story with the girl! But as a fellow vegetarian (except on holidays like my birthday, fridays, and when i go out to dinner) I am glad the animals are getting some revenge!
Im suprised they didnt find that tree, as i saw in the trailer the guy from CSI is in it and with all his criminal investigation skills and detective skills he would of been more helpful to the team!
Seriously are you for real? have you ever seen predator 1 Jesus you don’t know what you are talking about, you even spelled the lead actors name wrong its Adrian brody, you don’t understand the concept of what the predator is, and a love story in a film like this isn’t necessary it just wouldn’t work. Please stop doing reviews cos you ain’t good at it
Please, for the love of God, tell me this was a joke review. If it is, ha ha. If not, well you obviously didn’t pay attention to any of the storyline whatsoever.
Would you be happier if we changed the name of fish to Sea Kittens?
It’s Adrien Brody people, yeesh! And if there was a love under story, then it would have been like any other movie out there. Pathetic. Go watch Twilight and the rest of your chick flicks.
Please tell me your a retarded bitch who thinks that they know what they are talking bout until fans of the movie find you and laugh at your stupidity they are not animal people they are an alien race called predators they kill people for sport their is no anti hunting message and if you were a vegan you wouldn’t eat anything that comes from animals learn what your talking about before you actually speak and learn to critique my 5 year old cousin does a better job then you. And as for a “magical tree with magic fruit” on it what magic mushroom where you smoking when you thought that’d be good in any fu**ing movie.
Why dont you eff off, jerk! Don’t hate on V because she thinks your movie was lame. It was!
If you think Predators was lame your just as dumb as she is.
It’s not about her not liking the movie, it’s about her trying to create these so called hidden messages in anything and everything so she has some leverage in a petty arguement. The movie wasn’t lame, trying to make something into something else is. V is stone-cold crazy.
“If you’re like me, you are a strict vegetarian eater who loves animals and only eats meat on holidays (Thanksgiving, Halloween, etc.) ” <—————-THEN YOUR NOT A TRUE VEGITARIAN!
"and even then only meat from stores because hunting causes a lot of suffering to animals" <—————Yes, because killing animals and mass processing them is SOOO much better. -_-
"Aidan Brody stars as a hunter who finds himself on a planet that is in outer space."<—-Where else WOULD a planet be?
"It’s hard to say that there are good guys and bad guys in this movie. Other movies like Dark Knight or Mama Mia are pretty clear about who is good and bad. Predators blurries the line between good and bad." <——I still think that murdering alien creature was the hero *sarcasm*
" While I wanted to support this movie because it has a good message about animals, I was mostly a little disappointed (sorry, Mr. Brody…) "<—–Since when does Predators have messages about animals?
"
"but the animal people were, I dunno, kind of silly-looking. It was hard to tell what kind of animals they used to be. One of them was a walrus, but I couldn’t really tell what the others were supposed to be. They all just sort of looked like lizard people with weird fish mouths."<———–Wait, what?
Well, first off, they aren't "Animal people", they are an alien species. Second of all, the human characters were criminals and killers, not hunters. Third, if you don't like this kind of movie, WHY DID YOU GO AND SEE IT?
stupid bitch
haha! just like your mum!
Learn how to spell mom.
…How does it have a message? Its about alien hunters that hunt and kill humans for sport. WHAT MESSAGE COULD YOU POSSIBLY GET OUT OF THAT?!
No sweeite, remmember when we ate your dad? thats when you said, “Thats it! I’m not a vegeterian anymore!”
Being kind to animals is a great message for a movie, sweety. Good find, I don’t think I would’ve ever thought to watch this movie. I hope a lot of people go to see this film because of your review.
Go Valerie, go!
xx
Are you a complete moron.Why would a vegan even see this film. The whole movie’s about killing and hunting. Fish people do you not releaize you just basically insulted one of movie history greatest creatures. To seriously write a review like this you either have to be high or completely f**king retarded.
It’s nice how people try so hard to find a “hidden message” in everything that goes with or against what they’re arguing about. It’s a movie. A summer popcorn blockbuster type movie that is a sequel to another like it. That’s all, get over yourself. It’s not one giant PSA on anything.
HOLY SHIT! ARE YOU RETARDED!
What mental institution did you escape from!
This is a sequel to a movie about Alien hunters that kill people for sport. They are NOT animals, they are not representative of anything, THEY ARE GODDAMN ALIEN HUNTERS! Jesus Christ, the plot couldn’t be any simpler, and you still didn’t uderstand.
Congratulations on failing harder than anyone ever has. I hope you reply to this, I would LOVE to see how you try and back your way out of this one.
I thought they could have done a better job explaining how the animals got so smart. Bitten by radioactive spiders, perhaps? It should be in the deleted scenes on the DVD, but I wont be seeing it because you’re right, Valerie. This movie was lame!
I hope they do a sequel or prequel.
you are all f**king retarded, read my post
You guys do releaize there not animals that came from earth they are a species that developed on another planet. They did’nt get smart they learn like hummans do. Their intelligence actually exceeds humans. Energy based weapons,spaceships, these things take thousands of years of both cultural and scientific development.If you think their animals that just got smart you obviously have no clue in hell what a Predator really is. Also don’t review a movie you don’t understand it makes you look like a complete dumb f**k.
So the animals came from earth, and went to another planet in outer space and learned how to fight and be smart? But how did they get books?
Linda, read this..
FAILLLLLLLLL !
??
I dont get it. did your L key get stuck down?
He’s saying your reply sucks which it does,Linda Your reply’s are almost as retarded as this review, f**king moron.
EPIC F–king face palm… You should be kidnapped in the middle of the night and dropped off on an alien planet to be HUNTED. Hunting is one of mother natures most sacred and #1 laws. It either kill or be killed, survival of the fittest. Every creature on this planet from the tinest bacteria to the planet’s dominate predator (homo sapiens)hunts and kills is prey to survive. We humans as a species just happen to be very good at killing thus we hunt now for sport. Go dress up as a deer and walk through the woods this November….
this bitch is stupid. first off, its adrian brody. second, there was no love connection between his character and alive braga’s, and third, this is the stupidest movie review i have ever seen.
there is no fucking hidden message. this writer is a nut job.
“One of them was a walrus, but I couldn’t really tell what the others were supposed to be. They all just sort of looked like lizard people with weird fish mouths.”
“I would liked to have seen the hunters and the animal people find a tree that had magic fruit on it and when they ate it, they would go, “Wow, I am so full from this fruit and it gives me all of the nutrition I need on a daily basis” or something like that and then maybe show a list of local stores that sell fruit near each movie theater showing the movie.”
I rest my fucking case. This woman is a moron.
Where do you get your weed?… In an effort not to repeat the past repliers I will keep this simple. You are out of your mind. This is a movie about an ALIEN race hunting people for trophies. You also got all the characters wrong to the point where I think you were watching another movie. Mexican cowboy wtf??? And if you like love stories so much why don’t you stay in your room and watch Twilight cause movies that are worth something don’t deserfve to be punished by your reviews.
Grow some braincells or get familiar with the genre before going in and doing a review…
This must be the worst review Ive ever read, period! Go and fetch a brain right now before you do anything else!!! Its for your own good!
could I have your attention please…..
Lol
lol
lol
lol
lol
lol
lol
retard
that is all
Great review
G-Damn people it’s Adrien with an E and not an A! If you’re going to rip on her for spelling his name wrong, then you should spell his name right. But yeah, she needs to eat meat so her brain gets the nutrition it needs.
Comparing this movie to Mama Mia, lol. Who were the evil hunters in the musical?
