A review by Manuel São Bento

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/predator-badlands-movie-review-dan-trachtenberg-earns-the-franchise-keys-by-flipping-the-hunt/

"Predator: Badlands is an audacious exercise in reinvention that takes a risk and triumphs. The movie excels in every technical department, featuring a spectacle of creature design and sound work, and offering a new thematic vision for the saga's longevity.

Elle Fanning's superb performance and Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi's powerful physicality ensure Dek's journey — the creature who forgoes the Yautja code of honor in search of a deeper, collective capability — won't leave anyone indifferent. If there were still doubts that Dan Trachtenberg deserves the keys to the franchise, they've been dissipated once again.

It leaves us with the important message that even in the most lethal and solitary of cultures, cooperation and compassion can be the most powerful forms of survival."

Rating: B+
