Soylent Red

Predators was not quite as good as the original but better than the sequel, and much better than the AVP movies. The movie took itself seriously but had enough fun that it balanced out. It paid a lot of homage to the original complete with the water fall, a guy covered in mud, and even some very similar lines. It was cool that a new type of Predator was introduced and I swear one of the other creatures looks a lot like the Space Jockey (though that could just be my imagination). The acting was a little over the top in some spots and some of the dialogue was cheesey but it’s what you would expect from a movie like this. Brody did a good Arnold impersonation with the flak vest and bulked up to fill it out. Overall, I give it a solid B+.

I’m a little behind on this one. Actually, I’m just behind on writing, I saw the movie opening week. The A-Team was a fun ride. It didn’t take itself too serious and it made it that much better. They included all the absurdity of the TV show and it worked. The team is best at what they do. There is always a plan and the plan always comes together. Well, usually. It was nice to finally see the origin of the team and find out why B.A. is scared to fly. I’ll you a hint, it’s Murdock’s fault. It was also good finally see some people get killed. Maybe it was just an 80s television thing but how can you fire that many round and no one ever gets hit?

Overall, this was easily one of my favorite movies in a long time. The ending CGI was not up to par with recent films but I can over look that when combined with the total awesomeness of the over all movie.
