Spoiler!

- Almost felt like a childrens movie like Transformers
- The tropes and themes were heartfelt butr cheesy
- The humans/corporations are actually the real bad guys
- That superloud basedrum thing thats usually just for trailers pretty much goes the whole movie
- There were nostalgic themes
- Aliens - With the robot thing fights
- First Predator where you see they are truly hunters and setting traps like Arnie did type schit
- Definitely Star Wars with the jar jar binks yoda R2D2 sidekick thing.
- Wisecracking hot blonde chick
- Probably was only Two actual face actors in the whole thing so I imagine it was economical from a shareholder point of view

Was hard to believe it was from the same director behind Prey.

Two totally different movies in the same universe.

While it was fun it also played it safe. Felt more geared towards 13 year olds than adults who've seen a hundred action/sci-fi movies like it already. The creature/robot "team up" was enjoyable I guess. But the trophy monster wasn't nearly as intimidating as it was hyped up to be.

I really hope they do another period piece setting on earth with the next one. I loved Prey. Maybe medieval or even ancient times would be insanely cool.

You think a guy can keep a secret…

I actually thought you nailed it when your first comment out of the theatre was “I think I liked it?” If it was humans instead of cyborgs, it probably would’ve been a point higher for me. Weird to see a campy, cute, kinda funny predator movie. But hey… I think I liked it.

Badlands was badass, best fun since Arnolds original IMO.

Still trying to figure out how to absorb this sentence.

It was total made for tv nonsense. Nicely filmed is all I can give it but the lines and stupidity was silly. Netflix has been complete garbage the past year.

Took the family to Badlands. Enjoyed the hell out of it.

I called russic a child predator because he is a great human and it was punny with the movie we watched and he’d think it’s funny and it makes him text me and say F you. That’s the gizzed of it.

There wasn't enough vengeful killing in Frankenstein. The Creature swore to take away everything Victor loved. Very disappointing.

No way, that was definitely Prey.

This one was more dumb fun.
