Movie Review, Analysis, and Deconstruction

Let’s set the stage.
 In 1990, Predator 2 transported the deadly alien hunter from the jungle to the urban jungle of Los Angeles. Danny Glover leads a tense battle against a ruthless extraterrestrial while navigating gang violence and police corruption. With inventive kills, urban tension, and nods to the original, it cemented its place in the Predator franchise. But does it still deliver thrills, or is it overshadowed by its predecessor? 

...with special guest Jamaal Milton as co-host.
