Don't waste your money on the Blu-Ray version
I have both the SD and Blu-Ray version and can tell no difference. This is the second FOX transfer I've bought and will buy no more till they clean up their discs. These appear to be nothing more than the SD version pasted on a Blu-Ray disc.

Great movie/Bad blu-ray
Predator is a classic movie,one of my all-time favorites.This is not a review of the movie,but a review of the blu-ray version of the movie.
This is a bad blu-ray transfer.It looks worse to me than the regular dvd version.(And I don't even know how that's possible).I guess it has to do with how the original source material was filmed and/or the quality of the process used to convert the movie to blu-ray.I know it's an older movie but that's no excuse.Halloween came out in what...1978 or 1979,and that blu-ray transfer looks fantastic.
Anyway,if you have the regular dvd version of this movie,don't bother with the blu-ray.You will be sorry that you wasted the money.It has a large amount of grain in the film and does not look like a high definition movie should look.

What The Hell He Is?
Arnold Schwarzenegger's 1987 hit film ventures into the "Alien" territory adding his macho image created by 1985 film "Commando". First section of the movie has the plot reminding me of Stallone's FIRST BLOOD PART 2. After the initial mission has done well, another mysterious task looms to the special task force led by Dutch played by Swarzenegger. Highly intelligent alien monster is elusive and hardly gives the team the clue to what it is until the end(even after the movie ends nagging question "who is he?" remains unsolved).
It is so so enjoyable movie with high tension satisfying both the action movie fans and monster sci-fi fans.
Verdict: Enjoyable movie and a nice start for longlasting series.
Rating: 85 out of 100
Recommended for: Alien movie fans and action movie fans.

TERRIFIC SCHWARZENEGGER / HO HUM BLU RAY
Tension abounds as Arnie and his crew of crack mercenaries (including Carl Weathers, Jesse Ventura & Bill Duke-all excellent)thrash through the South American Jungle on a covert mission unawares they're being stalked by a deadly alien hunter. The Californian Gov's in fine form, fragging bad guys and sending them off with his trademark funny one liners. One of the Arnold's brawny best from the 80's puts most modern action films to shame for sheer high testosterone impact and concept.
This is easily the most ordinary Blu Ray transfer I own. This is because the source negative seems to have huge varitaions in grain and exposure which only a full digital restoration could fix. Ironically the variation actually adds to the impact and realism of the movie. It's still a heck of lot better than any other version so far, but far below the eye popping stuff like '2001' or 'Casino Royale' or "The Searchers"
