Definition of a lost clause: watching a sequel which have no hopes of being as good as the original. "The Predator" took me by surprise. I like this movie, mainly because the script which is much better than i expected, but the cast is much better than I expected. With Jacob Tremblay is the biggest standout as an autistic child who can read the language reserve only to Predators Question: How can he can't stand a barking dog, who enduring explosions? What ever the cast, he came up on top. The rest of the cast, most comic performance from a group of prison inmates. This film is violent, but well-written and mostly fun. Something I've never got out of "Assassination Nation," a film that i saw earlier.
