Sinopsis(1)
Set in the Comanche Nation 300 years ago, Prey is the story of a young woman, Naru, a fierce and highly skilled warrior. She has been raised in the shadow of some of the most legendary hunters who roam the Great Plains, so when danger threatens her camp, she sets out to protect her people. The prey she stalks, and ultimately confronts, turns out to be a highly evolved alien predator with a technically advanced arsenal, resulting in a vicious and terrifying showdown between the two adversaries.

Una cargada aventura en el bosque con una bonita poética india y un espectacular regreso del segundo mejor monstruo cinematográfico de la historia. El guión avanza y contiene detalles y sorpresas agradables, la acción es maravillosamente fluida y cinética. El elemento de poder de la mujer es natural y creíble y el motivo atractivo «salvaje contra salvaje en el desierto» utilizado a la perfección. Actores y maquillaje decente, la desconocida Amber Midthunder es un líder diez veces mejor que el ganador del Óscar Adrien Brody (por lo demás sólidos Depredadores de Nimród Antal). Hay algunas cosas menores que criticar de la película, por ejemplo la pelea final podría haber estado más pensada y menos precipitada, pero son detalles en relación con la satisfacción general. Ninguna franquicia cinematográfica está muerta, sólo espera al hombre adecuado. Y dentro de ella, Dan Trachtenberg tomó su propio camino, puso su corazón en ello y es el que más triunfó. Una película de un cineasta de talento y cinéfilo, para cinéfilos.

Parece que iré contra la corriente. La saga Depredador necesitaba una vuelta a las fuentes y a la sencillez sin complicaciones, pero este concepto no coincidía en nada con mi idea de cómo hacer las películas que funcionan. A diferencia del Depredador original, que es un thriller de manual y todo funciona a la perfección, Predator: La presa no funciona dramatúrgicamente en absoluto y ahoga al espectador en diálogos sin interés, tensión nula, transformación de personajes ausente y acción ciertamente continua, pero se vuelve tan rutinaria en los primeros minutos que rápidamente aburre. Además, la avalancha de animales digitales y los efectos CGI, incluso en partes donde no son necesarios, rebajan mucho la calidad de la película. Se suponía que este iba a ser el Depredador más natural, en lugar de eso es el más artificial de todos. No está ahí, no está.

A bit of a better made-for-TV movie. The few panoramic shots try to give the impression of visual richness and grandeur à la National Geographic, but for the vast majority of the time it's just a visually poorer film that doesn't belong in the cinema and the streaming format suits it. It doesn't lack a few neatly severed heads, what it lacks the oppressive atmosphere of the first one, which is on a completely different level. The Indians lack believability, and when I compare it to the likes of Mel Gibson's Apocalypto, which literally worked wonders with a comparable budget in terms of period authenticity and visual gore, I almost want to cry. A female protagonist in a predator franchise is an interesting idea, unfortunately in a film where only the bear scene stands out from the average. And no, the heroine's final fight, which turns the Predator into an incompetent moron, I really didn't buy that one. Arnold could beat such a naive slob with just his farts.

Dan Trachtenberg gave me a similar pleasure as he did with 10 Cloverfield Lane. Predator: Prey is a confidently made adventure horror film that isn't afraid to go its own way, and at the same time, I dare say it will please fans of Predator more than anything that came after the second film. And like 10 Cloverfield Lane, the trailers are pretty deceptive and the film ends up having a slightly different feel and pace than you might expect. Still, I think I enjoyed the first half more, where there's no rush to get anywhere and the Comanche setting is unadorned and quite attractive. And while there's no Arnold, these tough guys from the American plains aren't wimps either. The main character is also very easy to root for. What I enjoyed most, however, was the way Trachtenberg treats the Predator itself in the first half. It gets an unexpected amount of space here, and for the first time we get to see it properly as a hunter, and a very fierce and cruel one at that. The new Predator won't rewrite the history of the genre or the brand, but it's a well made and above all cleverly conceived film. The former is what we hoped for, the latter is what I personally didn't expect, and I'm all the more pleased about it. It was a success.

A straightforward intimate period survival "from the mud to the puddle and back to the mud again" that would stand on its own, especially when it is functionally, and not just for show, set in the Predator universe. It's not without many "buts" (the atmosphere should have been thicker, it could have done with even more reliance on practical effects instead of digital, at times it feels like an adaptation of a rebooted Tomb Raider, and the English language didn't need to be so overused), but who cares when it works so well.
