I just watched “Prey” last night and thought it was a decent take on the Predator franchise. They spent a little too much time in the beginning on making our protagonist the ‘dumb little girl that wants to hunt’ and not just letting her be herself and showing what she can do without having to be rescued by her brother.
Some of the VFX were a little off (the lion they were hunting and the bear that ended up being gutted by the Predator) but it was a beautifully shot film out in the wilderness.
I was pleasantly surprised by this one and will probably watch it again.

Tend to agree... the bits of "of-the-moment" wokeism in the film were overshadowed by how decent the rest is.
