![]() Kevin Peter Hall returns as The Predator and he deserves mention because his massive hulking presence and his body language speaks volumes and makes you believe this being from another planet. He doesn't get a lot of scenes but he does well in them, just a tad cheesy at times which is typical Busey. Gary Busey is decent as the Predator obsessed Peter Keyes. Glover does the same and in fact seems to give the Predator an even bigger battle than Schwarzenegger did without pushing himself as much and that just seems ludicrous. Schwarzenegger was so good because it was completely believe that this war bred soldier could fight with everything he had against this larger than life being from another world. I don't want to harp anymore on Danny Glover but his role in this was ludicrous. Predator 2 feels like it leans more into the horror genre than the action and while the Predator focus is good it loses a lot of points in style, plot and action. We see their ship, more into their arsenal and their vision capabilities. The most important thing about Predator 2 is the details they put into learning more about what and who the Predator is. There was something instinctual and animalistic about Predator hunting in the jungle and it just seems awkward and forced in the city landscape. ![]() Taking the Predator out of the jungle was interesting but ultimately a bad decision. I like Glover but he's a supporting/character/sidekick actor not a star that can carry the film. Furthermore choosing Danny Glover as their star was simply a big mistake. The fact that Schwarzenegger did not return having decided (rightfully so) to do T2 was a huge misfortune for the film makers. However, there were some serious mis-steps in the making of this sequel and casting was definitely part of it. You can't jump start a story with a creature like Predator and now want to explore everything there is about him and rightfully so.
