A classic

This is yet another milestone of 80's action movie mayhem and when I was a kid, I really loved this flick. Indeed, when I was about 12 years old, I started to watch movies on my own and my first passion were action flicks. I used to watch tons of them and this one was definitely one of my favorites at the time. Basically, it was another badass action flick starring Arnold Schwarzenegger but the real brilliant touch was to combine a rather straightforward action flick with some science-fiction elements resulting in a very entertaining mix. To be honest, nowadays, I think it is a little too cheesy for my taste and the characters, even though they were totally badass, were seriously stereotypical and barely interesting. Still, there were so many things to enjoy here. Indeed, the music and the mood were just awesome, the Predator is one of the most fascinating Alien creature ever created and the whole thing was still damned entertaining. The best, in my opinion, is that the story was actually kind of lame when you think about it and you know all the way what's going to happen from the beginning until the end but since all the people involved played it completely straight, with no tongue-in-cheek whatsoever, it really worked. To conclude, it is another one of those movies which has been copied many times but the copycats never managed to make us forget this classic.
