      Predator 2

      Very funny plot and ridiculous plot.
      The scene is magnificent, from ancient times to modern times, aliens use humans as bait to nurture aliens, while foreigners prove their adulthood by defeating aliens. After watching this movie, I knew that Alien's opponent was a foreigner. When Sanaa Lathan was running wild on the Antarctic ice in the first part, I really wanted to have a thermal underwear she wore. And only one of the second predator came, and it seems that the predator is also engaged...

      City hunter

      This is the same story with a sense of sentiment. The jungle hunter has become a city hunter. It's okay to fight with the gangster police. Because there is no very clear protagonist, the sudden death will be unexpected. The overall feeling is great. Looking at the old version, the more I feel the new version is rubbish.

      Although it has broadened the world view to a certain extent and opened up a bigger universe, but after the whole movie reaches the place where the old black does not...

      Pity...

      Unfortunately, this sequel movie failed to follow the success of the upper part and became a complete sequel.
        Perhaps visually and commercially, this film surpasses the first one, but in terms of its plot...Although it cannot be said to be useless, it is really boring and lengthy. Even with more bloody passionate dramas and violent scenes, it cannot save the bottomless pit in the plot.
        I can’t say that the starring Danny Grover didn’t perform well in this film, but his reputation...

      Predator 2

      "This is a forest, and they are hunting." This Chinese predator walked out of the jungle and came to the city. Perhaps for them, this is the real jungle, full of prey they want to hunt. They have never been interested in docile prey. That is not their goal, nor can they bring them any honor or pride. They only deal with fierce prey, hunting drug lords, and destroying infidels. This does not matter justice, it is just them. The way to express the power of one's own power. In this movie, the...

      It's purely a follow-up work, no big names, and the story is far-fetched. There is no plot from beginning to end, and it's all...

      No governor is not happy! I feel that the Predator has degenerated. The last episode was able to kill a special force, and this episode can't even handle the Los Angeles police! Just this ability to return aliens, cut! !...

      It's far worse than the first episode, not to mention that the male protagonist is unattractive, his exaggerated acting style in the 80s, loose trouser legs and big butt, make people unhappy. ....

    Tidbits

    The film is the first film in the United States to be designated as NC-17, and it was released in theaters after several cuts.
    The scene in which the predator killed the Jamaican gang boss was not shot in the studio. The film crew specially chose a dirty alley for this scene, and the residents of the alley were not satisfied with the film crew’s announcement. Noise, all kinds of conceivable dirt were thrown from the windows in protest.

    Evaluation action

    Compared with the first part of the series, "Predator 2" has severely weakened the action component in addition to the changes in the scene, and the degree of excitement is not as good as the previous one. Although there is a big deviation from the first part, the predator in the second part is even more flesh and blood. In the second part, the predator actually spoke in English, and there was a scene of communicating with humans, but...

    Movie quotes

    • [Harrigan has stabbed Predator in stomach with its smart disc, then shouts]

      Lieutenant Mike Harrigan: Get it straight, asshole!

      Lieutenant Mike Harrigan: [while pulling the smart disc out] Shit happens!

    • Lieutenant Mike Harrigan: [reviewing the reports about the dead gang members in the opening shootout] All right Danny Boy, what have we got?

      Danny Archuleta: What have we got? Five low life Scorpions make it into the building, the next minute they're all shish kebab, not one bullet wound.

      Lieutenant Mike Harrigan: Well, it wasn't for drugs or money, there's a shitload of that for the taking. Maybe King Willie brought in some outside talent. He's making his big move.

      Danny Archuleta: A pro would have split the moment he heard the action. More than one we would have seen them. Whoever did this waited until the last minute, and then took out five guys armed with machine guns by hand -ha!-, then got by us. Maybe we should give him a job and put him on the payroll.

    • Gold Tooth: [23:45] King Willie says, not only do I have to kill you, but I have to take your soul. Voodoo magic. Fucking voodoo magic, man!

      [laughs]

      Gold Tooth: But you know what? I tell you what I believe: shit happens!
