It's nonsensical. We're supposed to believe a 1716 Native woman can have nearly full understanding of the use of several pieces of Predator technology while also being able to fight toe-to-toe with it for several minutes (and winning). I thought it was alright until the last 15ish minutes, at which point it became completely and irredeemably retarded.
The things you're talking about are the Predator technology itself, which was absurd, and the flintlock, for which she was given instruction. Do you really think it's reasonable for someone with no experience with any kind of tech to understand an alien laser guidance system after one encounter? Lol.
You're taking for granted that your own awareness of modern day guidance systems and exposure to who-knows-how-many sci-fi properties makes recognition of something similar super obvious to you. For someone who doesn't even have a concept of that to understand it in one go is beyond absurd. Also, how could she know that the Predator's system doesn't have alternate modes, for example? If it did, she'd be dead.
And don't go the "realism" copout route. There are reasons why some movies are good and some are bad, and a lot of that has to do with whether or not they make sense.
That's only realistic up to a point. This shit would be like magic to her there's no way she'd just figure it out when no one in the world has ever actually used anything more advanced than basic machines at that point in history. There's nothing her brain could have compared it to in order to figure it out
I actually thought the predator looked cool when they got around to fucking showing him. The biggest crime in this one is the budget and it being pitch black for 40% of the action and the predator being cloaked for the other 40. There was no like cat and mouse game either, or like no “hunt”, just the predator terrorizing people until it died.
I'm just sick of them coming up with new ways of getting the Predators to fight humans. It peaked with the original where it fought probably the greatest possible threat a human could pose, and ever since its been just contrived "surely my superior speed and intellect will win this" dexfag bullshit.
Give me a movie about them hunting some other strange alien race. No dialogue even needed, just pure hunter vs hunter action.
That was the appeal of the Alien Vs Predator stuff. 3 strong contenders in an all out battle. i have no idea why they keep bringing the franchise to less interesting places.
Predators vs Engineers. There you go hollywood, that one is free.
I never read the comics, but at least the AVP movies were both more about the humans to the point of barely having enough screentime for either of the others.
And there was little "hunter" action. It was always just direct action. Neither the Xenomorphs or Predators have felt like proper horror hunters since their original movies.
I enjoyed it. It wasnt in your face sjw bullshit beyond having a female protagonist. And i lile slashers so i can deal with that. Some of the kills were amazing.
No one over 12 should begin a sentence with "sooooo...." where it isn't grammatical appropriate. Let's stop perpetuating this teenage valley girl dialect.
Also, stop saying, "I feel like..." when referring to your thoughts, perspectives, and conclusions.
Do you feel that it was implied that I was pointing it as a specific instance of it being written in your post or do you feel that it could possibly be interpreted as a second suggestion, speaking in general terms, to all other adults out there reading the post?
I noped the fuck out at that moment, in the trailer. So no thanks, not even worth torrenting.
"bet she doesn't even know how to suck dick.."
It really is that easy boys.
Saved me from wasting 5 minutes then.
I used to give stuff a chance. Now I don't watch anything unless some soyjack critic complains about it being racist/sexist/cultural appropriation.
You paid money to Hollywood and encouraged them to make more crappy movies that propagandize "the message".
Stop giving money to people that hate you and want you and your family dead.
Just watched it (pirated).

I can’t stand that chick’s face. If they got someone hotter I might have given it a chance.
You're really saying a bunch of bodybuilders aren't attractive?
Private Vasquez?

Did you pay for it or sail the high seas?
So there aren’t any moments where she lectures men or anything?
Thanks for the info about the movie. It’s kinda sad because a few years ago I would give any movie a chance but now you have to ask if it’s woke

Sounds like a pass. Any good gore?

Thank you and all the best to you as well. /s

Film had way too much CGI, but I am glad the film wasn't as 'hurrr GIRL POWER' as the trailer implied.
By all means it has propaganda nonsense in it, but at least they were subtle about it, I guess?
Not worth purchasing a ticket for, but if you have 1.5 hours of time to spare and you find a torrent, it's an okay watch. 5/10
