Predator is one of the best action films ever made, in my opinion.

On paper it looks as though it will just be another generic "bang bang" film, but the reality is much more different - and it’s probably due to the dialogue.

From Jesse Ventura’s "I ain’t got time to bleed" to Arnie’s "stick around" or "GET TO DA CHOPPA!" the dialogue in the film is top drawer. Not the same kind of expression of the English language you would expect to see in a Shakesperian performance, but effective none-the-less.

I recently caught the sequel when it was on TV, and I wish I hadn’t bothered. It’s wrong on so many levels (Danny Glover, Gary Busey, Bill Paxton - enough said) that it just flat out stinks.

Don’t get me started on Alien Vs Predator either - what an absolute mess that was (and the sequel to it looks pretty shit as well).

I like to pretend the other films never happened and just stick with the original.

It’s the best thing to do.
