“Predator” Movie Review
“Predator” Plot Summary
A team of commandos, on a mission in a Central American jungle, find themselves hunted by an extra-terrestrial warrior.
Really cool action with unforgettable characters
In 1987, Arnold Schwarzenegger was solidifying his position as an action superstar with the releases of the epic Conan, the influential Terminator and the somewhat mediocre Commando that was still fun to watch anyway. However, that position wouldn’t be fully cemented until the arrival of Terminator 2 in 1991 which forever raised the bar for the action genre.
But plain and simple, ‘Predator’ is a staple for Schwarzenegger’s profile. It introduced the ultra cool ‘Predator’ to the world and changed the popular culture’s perspectives on alien movies. But the movie itself isn’t just known for the central character, like the crappy Friday the 13th movies that are only known for the murderous Jason Voorhees and his stupid hockey mask. But ‘Predator’ is known for the movie as a whole, with a great simplistic plot, awesome characters and great action that will make people want to see this again and again.
The movie is a about a former soldier/mercenary named Dutch (Arnie) who has been involved in a lot of conflict and has since decided to settle down and be the leader of a rescue team. He goes to a South American country to participate in a mission that would supposedly rescue a Cabinet Minister and a few other hostages, but later on he finds out that he’s been set up and it was actually a mission to destroy a rebel base that would’ve invaded sooner or later. And Dutch gets ticked off and he and his team try to escape the jungle, but they’re then being pursued by an alien who ‘hunts’ rather than kills. As the situation escalates, Dutch starts to lose his sanity and that’s totally evident in the final showdown with the creature.
Like James Cameron’s ‘Aliens’ that came out the year before, ‘Predator’ is shaped by it’s excellent characters, Dutch is the great, silent leader who is somewhat broken inside from all the combat that he went through in the past and his quote ‘If it bleeds, we can kill it’ is among the greatest. Blain is the totally cool tobacco-chewing, mini-gun-totting guy who spewed out 2 of the movie’s best lines: ‘I ain’t got time to bleed’, and ‘This stuff’ll make you a goddamn sexual tyrannosaurus, just like me’. Mac is pretty much Blain’s best bud and frequently shaves with his razor and without the shaving cream to show his manliness. Hawkins is the super-nerd of the group who reads comic books and occasionally makes some sick jokes about his girlfriend. Billy is the silent, no-nonsense spiritual dude. Dillon is the dirty CIA agent who was best pals with Dutch a few years back and then sets up Dutch and his team, which leads to their demise and his, as well. And finally, Poncho is the sympathetic, yet sarcastic soldier who connects with Anna, their hostage, during the course of the film. And these guys are great characters; and they each have their own personalities, which makes you want to see more out of each guy.
And of course, I can’t forget about the ‘Predator’. The high-tech alien that hunts other creatures for sport was a very creative and original idea. It also held a very intimidating presence and the special effects were very well done, especially the camouflage. And I’m still wondering how that managed to do that in 1987.
And last, but not the least, the action really stands out thanks to the direction of John McTiernan, who directed this right before he made ‘Die Hard’. The scene when the team attacks the rebel camp is, without a doubt one of the best in cinema, since it shows each team member providing something in the attack, and it’s not just one guy who acts like a one-man army and destroys everything in his path all by himself. Also, Dutch’s confrontation with the predator at the end, which displays more prehistoric styles of combat with the setting of the boulder and spike traps. And this movie makes up the modern warfare action and the caveman action so well.
Any action/sci-fi junkie should watch this, and they will be HOOKED. And you will want to see this again and again.

“Rocky II” Movie Review
“Rocky 2″ Plot Summary
Rocky struggles in family life after his bout with Apollo Creed, while the embarrassed champ insistently goads him to accept a challenge for a rematch.
I liked it a lot
Rocky 2 is a really good movie however I honestly don’t think its a necessary movie. The only real difference between this movie and the original is that Rocky wins in this one. I wanted Rocky to win in the first one like every underdog movie but the point of the first one was for him to go the distance. This movie is the ending that I would have liked for Rocky I but I honestly don’t think there needed to be a movie just for that. I enjoyed Rocky 2 and its a good sequel but I don’t think the movies necessary and its not necessary in the Rocky time line. I’ve seen worst Sports Movies and I’ve seen better Sports Movies. The movie also deals with how Rocky would seem if he was rich which is entertaining and interesting.

“Rocky III” Movie Review
“Rocky 3″ Plot Summary
When Rocky is defeated by a brutal challenger, Apollo Creed offers to retrain him in order to regain his fighting spirit.
Another Great Stallone Movie!!
***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS*** ‘Rocky III’ is another sequel from the first and second ‘Rocky’. It’s about Mr. T. wanting to have a match with Rocky(Stallone). It’s also about the statue of Rocky standing in Philadelphia. It’s sad when Mickey died after the boxing match in the middle of the movie. It was great when Rocky(Stallone) befriended Apollo Creed(Weathers) by working and exercising together for another boxing match with Mr. T. And by the way, ‘Eye Of The Tiger’ was a great song in this cool movie. ‘Rocky III’ has been one of the greatest Stallone movies ever created. I Highly Recommend It. **** out of **** stars and 10 out of 10 stars.

“Predator 2″ Plot Summary
Amidst a territorial gang-war, a sophisticated alien hunter stalks the citizens of Los Angeles and the only man between him and his prey is veteran LAPD officer, Lieutenant Mike Harrigan. add synopsis
One of my all time favorite Sci-fi’s
I found this sequel to be much more complex and also more entertaining than the original. First of all the original revolves around Arnold S.(although I still find it to be Arnold’s best movie, and also like Carl Weathers and Sonny Landham) who is this 80’s action-man stereo-type one-dimensional feel-no-pain killing machine who nobody in their right mind can identify with and second the jungle is much too obvious a studio set.
The second Predator on the other hand is set in an anarchic future in the asphalt-jungle, midst a drug dealers-police violent confrontation(I loved the war-zone-city vision), and hunted by government agents(this being an excellent pretext to display some stylish shooting-techniques and unusual angles, and also explain the creature’s nature and motives) who want to capture the beast(Gary Busey-another brilliant performance) to study it for it’s killing potential. The voodoo-gang’s whole mystique, the hard music score, the attention for detail – the south-American influenced interior design of the drug-lord apartment or the interior of the alien ship(there are some hidden treats for the trained eye, like the alien skull and other interesting trophies) and not at least the creature’s design are just a few examples for the stylish quality of this much better than the original sequel. Danny Glover brings a touch of real to the tough but human lead character while Bill Paxton(bad-mouthed as always-I just love this guy in everything he’s done), Ruben Blades and Conchita Alonso are the flavor of this adrenalin ride. Keep out an eye for the color composition of virtually every scene – a treat. There’s no killing what can’t be killed…

“Rocky IV” Movie Review
“Rocky 4″ Plot Summary
When Apollo Creed is killed in a match against a powerful Soviet boxer, Rocky decides to challenge him himself. add synopsis
Much different from Rocky 1 but still entertaining
Rated PG for Violence.
Rocky 1 was an Oscar-winning film with great acting,storyline,drama etc
Rocky 2 also had the drama and Rocky III had more action but still mixed drama into the storyline
Rocky IV came out and it was much different from the first film
This film is basically a revenge film which trades the original Bill Conti score for an all new heart-pumping 1980’s soundtrack
I think the soundtrack in this film is better but that’s probably because I like the type of music
The film’s storyline and acting may not be that good especially in comparison to the first Rocky film but the movie is very fun and it should keep you entertained for the short 1hr and 30min run time
This film and Rambo First Blood Part II were both films that portray the Russians as villains
Back in 1985, when both films were released, the USA and Russia were enemies and that is what contributed to the box office
This film and Rambo 2 were big high grossing movies
In this one, a Russian boxer named Ivan Drago(Dolph Lundgren) challenges American boxer’s to fight
Apollo Creed who has retired earlier, wants to fight him
During the match, he puts on a big show about America with James Brown singing
However, Ivan Drago who is very strong, kills Apollo in the ring
Drago does not seem very sorry that he killed him, so then Rocky Balboa decides to travel to Moscow, Russia to fight Drago
So he goes to Russia, trains in the show with heart-pumping 1980’s music playing and then fights Drago in which is one of the best fight’s in the series
Rocky IV may not have the good storyline of the first two films but it is a very fun and entertaining movie.
