Prey Review - If it bleeds we can kill it

Can the Predator franchise finally get back on track?

 Or should this alien just buzz off back to space? 

That is the question we will be answering in today’s review of Prey, the latest installment in the Predator franchise. There are plenty of reasons to have low expectations for this film, especially since so many sequels have been unquestionable disappointments. 

Prey, however, subverts expectations in the best possible ways. The film is a refreshing return to the core elements that made the first installment of Predator so thrilling. It's a straightforward tale about survival and proving your worth, with plenty of fun action sequences thrown into the mix. Prey is also shot on location, a welcome departure from the CGI, which seems to saturate blockbusters these days. 

 While it’s a pity Prey won’t be released in theaters, watching it at home is undeniably convenient. If you’ve been feeling disillusioned with the Predator franchise, Prey may just restore your faith
