Revenge of the wooden boards and gorgeous CGI scenery
Once again proves that with the prequels, you can't go wrong with the production design, even if the CGI is heavy. It provides a fitting end to the saga but not necessarily the character arcs. The characters finally have emotions but they still mostly feel like wooden boards so when Anakin turns to the Dark Side, it feels less like a complete shift in his moral compass and more like it just had to happen.

A decent attempt at something different. An ok story line and plenty of action. It has a similar visual style as Sin City with nearly all CGI backgrounds and environments but tweaked slightly to give a comic book feel to it. Well worth checking out if you have missed it so far.

Not as bad as it sounds
I watched this many years ago and could remember nothing about it, so decided to give it a go again as I noticed it on Amazon. It's not the best film, but is vaguely promising and not as bad as it sounds.
This is a horror film that decides to forego any traditional scares and creeps and just go for full on gore. This mostly works as some of the blood and gore in this is brilliant, however it is spoilt a little by some pretty poor CGI. If they had left out this CGI and some wannabe 3D moments then I might have rated this a tiny bit higher, as the CGI really is that bad. It's a rather basic plot but effective and I've always had a soft spot for Bradley Coooper. Vinnie Jones is alright and vaguely menacing although personally I think they could've found someone slightly more threatening. I'm rather glad that he barely opened his mouth for the entire film, as his accent definitely would've spoilt things!
Overall this is a fairly decent watchable horror, and much better than some of the more recent jump scares based ones.

A truly awful film
If I could give it 0 stars I would. One of the worst films ever. I get some films are so bad they are actually funny unintentionally. This tries to replicate that intentionally. You'll want to turn off after 5 minutes.

Great Sfx
Arnie at his best
A close call as one of Arnie's best films. A very good action/horror that still looks up to date with recent films. Simple premise as the hunters become the hunted. The Predator looks awesome and the effects, with little cgi, still look good 30 years later.
