Firstly, Laurence Fishbourne is little more than a cameo in this film - i guess they couldnt afford to have him on screen much.
With that in mind Predators is another solid addition to the Predator franchise, even though it felt very low budget ($40m, which is actually 1/2 that of 'Grown Ups').
Predators dont get much screen time and everything is in anonymous jungles - both help keep costs down. Also none of the main actors are all that well known - thus keeping costs down.
Comparing this movie to the original Predator - they are extremely similar. They have about the same level of action, pointless de-forestation with mini-guns, green blood, clothes gradually come off as the movie progresses, reasonably epic final fight scene, token black and token mexicans (although +token asian and +token jew) with just enough plot to justify the action.
Well worth seeing, but somehow not having aliens make it a little empty.
Also scenes in the trailer dont exist in the movie.

'docter" serial killer part lol.
that was such a lame twist.
when he played with the flower i expected him to use that knowledge to pwn a predator... oh well.
