Even Chris Hansen wouldn't want to catch The Predator (2018) #Review
The Predator franchise hasn’t had as much bad luck as its studio stablemate the Alien. Sure they both clashed in a pair of adequate/ terrible movies but at least our favourite extra-terrestrial trophy hunter hasn’t appeared in anything as aggressively stupid as “Alien: Covenant”...until now, that is...

Barely there entertainment value
The writing is terrible - it sounds like she writes the same sentence structure over and over again...and consults a thesaurus every other sentence when it just isn't necessary. It's also a disgrace to the BDSM community as it is not an accurate depiction of the lifestyle at all. That said, it does have a "one chapter before bed" entertainment value....barely.

Movie Favorite

"Tony Curtis as a terrible man and Burt Lancaster as something even worse, in one of the greatest showbiz movies ever made. James Wong Howe’s gorgeous cinematography and Elmer Bernstein’s jazzy score (with an assist from the great Chico Hamilton Quintet) all contribute to the alluring nocturnal Manhattan ambience. Alexander Mackendrick also directed great Ealing comedies, including The Ladykillers and The Man in the White Suit."

Set very convincingly in NOLA
Every character in this book is a terrible person (but comically so.) If that bothers you, you should skip it. (0 more)
It's own special flavor of humor, takes a couple pages to really "get it"
Sometimes if I get offended unnecessarily, I picture the main character in this book, reacting with histrionics an I chuckle to myself and move on with my life.
