This still doesn't look amazing, but it looks a hell of a lot better than what we saw before. As I mentioned before, I will excuse a lot from Shane Black based solely on Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang, and Lethal Weapon, but that first trailer did not make this film look great. It made it look kinda stupid. This new one has blood, gore, witty repartee, and people getting stabbed. In short, it looks... better.
Here we have the crack steam of military men and some great looking action scenes of the guys fighting the Predator. I still think the idea of having Predators "evolve" is kinda dumb, but then again, it makes sense on paper; what can stop the most efficient killing machines on the planet? Mutated versions of the most efficient killing machines on the planet. Kinda a cheap move, but i'll watch a mutant Predator fight other Predators, who will, most likely, form some sort of uneasy alliances with the military dudes.
Here's the official blurb: "Now, the universe's most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter and deadlier than ever before, having genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species. When a young boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth, only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and a disgruntled science teacher can prevent the end of the human race."
The Predator is directed by Shane Black, written by Fred Dekker & Shane Black, and features Boyd Holbrook, Trevante Rhodes, Jacob Tremblay, Keegan-Michael Key, Olivia Munn, Sterling K. Brown, Alfie Allen, Thomas Jane, Augusto Aguilera, Jake Busey, Yvonne Strahovskiand.
The Predator hits theaters September 14, 2018.
