  • Predator 2: You're All Insane!

    Jesus Christ, people. I can turn my brain off and enjoy a 'stupid fun' movie, but not this film. HOW do you possibly give this film a pass?

    Awful in every way shape and form, it features terrible dialog, broad characterizations that border on camp, and incomprehensible action sequences. It's powered by the 'idiot plot': the only reason why the movie moves along from point A to point B is because everyone's a complete idiot.

    One of the worst movies that I've ever seen.

    Dammit to high hell, Matt.

    No one is saying the movie is all that good. Or better than the original in any way.

    And you forgot the male nudity.

      Yeah, I have no problem with this flick for the most part. It has its ups and downs. But I love me some King Willie and crazy Busey

            Matt's gone mason crazy. Which is just regular crazy, but while wearing that cool apron.

              I blame Stephen Hopkins. I like the concept and I like the setting, but it's handled all wrong.

                1990 was an odd year of inferior sequels: Another 48Hrs, The Two Jakes, Godfather III, Preadator 2, Rocky V

                  I liked Rocky V, but only for the subplot of his kid dealing with bullies at his school. I was going through the same thing when we moved to the army base.

                    I like Another 48Hrs. The Two Narcoleptics is more like it. GFIII wasn't all bad, or good. TOMMY THE MACHINE GUNN MOTHERSCRATCHER!

                      Holy shit, I always forget that the main bully is a young fat E from Entourage.

                        Let's take a look at the directorial career of Stephen Hopkins:
                        1987 - 'Dangerous Game' Never saw it.
                        1989 - 'A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child' AWFUL
                        1990 - 'Predator 2' AWFUL
                        1993 - 'Judgment Night' Mostly terrible with a few good moments
                        1994 - 'Blown Away' Mostly terrible with a few good moments
                        1996 - 'The Ghost and the Darkness' Mediocre
                        1998 - 'Lost in Space' AWFUL
                        2000 - 'Under Suspicion' never saw it

                        From there, it's a bunch of television stuff. The word is really good on his Peter Sellers biopic, but that's it.

                          'Rocky V' isn't great by any means, but it's also not as bad as people portray it. 'Another 48 Hours' is terrible, and 'the Godfather III' is high comedy.

                            If it was the HBO flick, then yes it is good.

                              That's the one. 'The Life and Death of Peter Sellers'. I've heard nothing but great things about it, so I'll give Mr. Hopkins the benefit of the doubt on this particular film.
