A team of special force ops, led by a tough but fair soldier, Major "Dutch" Schaefer, are ordered to assist CIA man, Colonel Al Dillon, on a rescue mission for potential survivors of a Helicopter downed over remote South American jungle. Not long after they land, Dutch and his team discover that they have been sent in under false pretenses. This deception turns out to be the least of their worries though, when they find themselves being methodically hunted by something not of this world.
"Predator, directed by John McTiernan, is a classic action-adventure film that still holds up today. The movie follows a team of commandos on a mission in a Central American jungle who find themselves hunted by an extraterrestrial warrior. The film is part sci-fi, part horror, and part action, all muscle. The cast, led by Arnold Schwarzenegger, is fantastic and delivers some memorable one-liners. The special effects are impressive for the time, and the creature design is iconic. The film's pacing is excellent, and the tension builds to an exciting climax. Predator is a must-see for fans of the action genre and is a testament to the talent of John McTiernan. Overall, Predator is a thrilling and entertaining film that has stood the test of time."
