Let's look at the positives - Director Stephen Hopkins tried something new with a simple change of scenery, from a thick jungle to a dystopian Los Angeles. I have nothing but respect for not straight up ripping off the first movie, unlike Predators...
Another positive - I find it almost impossible to dislike Danny Glover. His character is nowhere near as iconic as as Arnie's Dutch, but he's still pretty likable.
The titular Predator looks pretty badass as always, and the use of practical effects throughout are pretty good.
The digital effects dotted about here and there have aged terribly, and the general plot is largely forgettable for the most part. Quite simply, it's an inferior movie to it's predecessor, but it's an entertaining enough slice of 90s Sci-fi and still worth a watch, even if it's just to hear Danny Glover call the Predator a 'pussy face'.
