Outstanding film!

Only thing that makes sense from what you said is "location is gorgeous" . Rest is crap.
Camera work - extremely bad.
Direction - extremely bad. Maybe this Trachnberg guy had someone help him with 10 Cloverfield lane, that one was ok.
CGI - not bad, pure cheap garbage.
Attention to details - so bad its vomit inducing.
" Definitely a director I'll be keeping an eye on". - Keep your eyes on anything you want, but keep your fingers away from keyboards, you dont make any fucking sense.

Amber Midthunder is not bad...
But I liked her a lot more in Legion.

Location was gorgeous. It was the only good thing.

And brother was charismatic and swaggy. I felt sorry when he was killed. I liked him But we all knew it would happen from the moment he was introduced. Because no one can outshine Doctor Mary Sue ))) Honestly I was surprised he would survive to almost end of the movie. I expected him to tragically die in the first 30 minutes.

It was hard to have any feelings for characters or any tension because we all knew that every character will die and Mary Sue will never be in real danger because she is main character and must survive till the end. Thats why Predator, very conveniently, was always distracted by something when it was her time to die. Sometimes he just walked away for no reason.

CGI bear and lion were ridiculously bad.

Not a CG hater here, thought the CG bear in "The Revenant" was incredibly done and believable. In Prey the CG bear was not well done and looked animated in many shots. Further, other animals looked poor at times (the CG lion looked fine mostly but it was also helped by being in near darkness).

"her character development is well executed."

WTF? WHAT character development???

She went from "I want to hunt because you think I cannot hunt" and failure after failure - managed to get one of the tribe member killed by the cat and then she could have killed the cat but shat her pants and failed - how is she alive after that episode is unclear. Then she goes like a stupid cunt after a bear and the bear almost kills her but she is saved by the predator that mainly ignores her the whole movie. Then the stupid cunt, after barely escaping from the bear, decides that it's smart to hunt the being that just easily killed the bear.

And not only that she is stupid enough to hunt the predator, she manages to bring his wrath on her own tribe hunting party and has everyone killed, including her brother.

Plus the pistol in Predator 2 being in the "hands" of a predator implies that another predator come and wiped them all, taking the pistol as a trophy. Not the best outcome for her tribe and she is the only one to thank to ...

And when she kills the predator is like the predator not just doesn't give a shit about her and doesn't consider her a threat but suddenly becomes dumb as shit, as dumb as to cut his own arm.

And she is still the same stupid and weak but full of her self cunt.

I thought it was very good at least in the first half. I felt the second half could have been better but maybe part of that is down to me feeling sleepy and losing concentration.

The best in the franchise though? Nah. Third place just behind the second one, on first viewing.

Thanks for your review.
I'm curious, what would you say is the film's "cinematography style" ?

Fully agree. Ignore the slow crowd!
