Special effects/design: 3/4 (Good)

Subjective Rating: 9/10 (One of my favorites, 4/4 5/4). I recognize it doesn't deserve it, but I love this movie. The dialog and acting are cringe-inducing pretty much any time anyone opens his mouth. The violence and gore is disgustingly senseless beyond reason. There's no craftsmanship beyond what's necessary to get by. Everything good about the plot (apart from the superficial change of background) comes directly out of the first movie. But there's just something about the concept of the Predator, hunting down a single bad-ass guy, that makes for one of the most fun action movies ever. It's kind of like a game of Who Would Win in a Fight.
Objective Rating (Average): 2.2/4 2.3/4 (Okay)
