Will prob miss this at the cinema then and wait for a (wishfully thinking) Directors Cut on disc.
I was fearing that. It had all the telltale signs - advertised long before it is due for release and then advertised to death just before the release. It's like the studio know that it is a stinker and need to decide whether to just cut their losses and cross their fingers or advertise it to death to hype it up.
I first saw cinema trailers over 6 months ago, though not as extreme as Jupiter Ascending which started running trailers over a year before it was released.
Will still go and see it as I have Cineworld Unlimited but won't be paying extra for IMAX.
Cheers,
Nigel
There's only one Predator movie.
As an aside, why the use of US movie certifications in a UK review? We do have our own ratings you know, which are much more relevant to the UK audience on this UK site.
So Final Score is 50% better than this!
Just kidding Cas. I haven't seen either, 6 or a 4, both scores suggest they're not worth my time.That's an utterly pointless comparison. Forget the scores, read the reviews.
Final Score is a practically straight-to-TV low budget riff on Die Hard, The Predator is a big budget, big screen soft reboot/sequel of Predator. If The Predator was release on SkyTV it may have been more comparable.
And as they always say, 3 stars is a recommendation. But Empire are always generous with big title releases.
