In this episode of R Rating, we’re diving into Predators (2010) — the high-stakes sci-fi thriller that expanded the legendary Predator franchise. Directed by Nimród Antal and produced by Robert Rodriguez, the film drops a group of deadly killers — including Adrien Brody, Alice Braga, Topher Grace, and Laurence Fishburne — onto an alien hunting preserve where survival is anything but guaranteed.
We’ll break down the story, characters, action sequences, creature design, and connections to the original Predator films. Does Predators deserve more recognition, or is it a weaker sequel in a beloved franchise? How does it compare to Predator (1987) and Predator 2 in terms of suspense, action, and world-building?
If you’re a fan of sci-fi, monster movies, survival thrillers, or the Predator series, this episode is for you. Expect an in-depth discussion of the Predator species, the film’s unique hunting preserve, and the standout performances, plus our honest verdict on how it fits in the franchise.
