Arnold Schwarzenegger at his best! A must for Sci-Fi fans!

Action, blood (some of it radioactive green), and plenty of tough guys, mostly human with one pretty ugly alien.

I'm not entirely sure why there's a woman in this flick, but I guess the unrealized romantic element is a requirement.

Aside from that one drawback, this is a great way to spend a couple of heart-pounded hours.

Fox blows it on Blu-Ray again
Ryan Agadoni | Whittier, CA USA | 04/08/2008
(1 out of 5 stars)

"My 1-star review is not for the movie, Predator, which I love. I bought it twice on DVD: the first single-disc release with no extras, and then the excellent 2-disc special edition. I am not going to be buying on Blu-Ray, however, until the chowder-heads over at Fox start including all of the ALREADY PRODUCED extras on their Blu-Ray discs. Case in point: Predator.

Predator on Blu-Ray features a higher definition transfer (though on a single layer disc), but carries over none of the special features from the 2-disc DVD. How hard would this have been? Make it a dual layer Blu-Ray, and just throw them all on there in standard definition. That would have guaranteed and instant buy for me. But this habit of dumping the film bare-bones onto Blu-Ray is reminiscent of the early days of DVD, and I thought we were past that. Other studios are doing a fine job of including all the special features, so why is Fox being dumb? And why are they slapping a $40 MSRP on a bare-bones release?

You would have had me with a good release, Fox. I would gladly plonk down the cash for a true upgrade from my DVD version. But you blew it, and you're not getting my money."
Worst looking print!
Robert Owsley | Chicago | 09/23/2008
(1 out of 5 stars)

"WOW what a bad looking print. Who the heck was in charge of this Blu-Ray transfer??? Does the 'Ray' stand for Ray Charles? because it looks as if a blind man choose to use this print! All the fuzzies, dots, lines, and blemishes on this print look ever better in hi-def! Why on earth can't the original negative be used? If I'm gonna pay a higher price, then I should get a much better picture. Shame, shame, shame, on them."
Shameful Quality Blu-Ray
tony95 | Knoxville, TN United States | 09/07/2008
(1 out of 5 stars)

"This is the worst quality Blu-Ray I have come across so far. $26.95 is outrageous for a DVD to Blu-Ray dub. Your probably better off getting the widescreen DVD than the Blu-Ray and playing the movie on upscaling DVD player, you will get the same quality. The movie is classic, just don't buy the Blu-Ray version unless you find it in a bargin bin somewhere."
