The Darkslayer takes on the movie Predators! It's a 7.0 out of 10!

 Hmmm...now this would be a good fight, The Darkslayer versus a Predator.  Now that would be an excellent match up and of course The Darkslayer would win!  Now, I relish in movies like this alot, it's just my kinda stuff.  I have always enjoyed this series as well as Aliens and the like.  They are well made and entertaining, basically mankind manning up against the other kinds.  This new version of Predators plays out much like the first, but the cast (Adrien Brody, Fishburne, and Eric from That 70's Show) is not nearly as bulky and colorful as Awrnold, Jesse, Carl and thier kin.  You already know what to expect in this, there aren't alot of big surprises, but you won't get bored with it either.  The truth is, most sci-fi flicks are lacking these days, and it was refreshing to see a movie maker going to the well and telling a story with a different spin using the same formula as the original one.  The first is without equal, but this one is number 2 in the Predator run.  Good stuff!   I recommend it!
