Predator: Badlands<\/strong><\/a> is set to release on November 7, 2025, and reviews have begun to pour in, posting the weakest mark yet for Dan Trachtenberg\u2019s Predator films, but still scoring extremely high overall.<\/p>\n Over on Rotten Tomatoes, Predator: Badlands debuted with an 87%<\/a>, which ranks third-highest amongst the entirety of the Predator franchise. As far as Predator films directed by Trachtenberg, though, the film is actually the lowest of the three, scoring just under Prey and Predator: Killer of Killers.<\/p>\n Despite the lower score, though, Badlands is getting largely nothing but praise. The Hollywood Reporter\u2019s Richard Lawson<\/a> said the film strives to be \u201cthe best version of a zillionth Predator installment hat it can be,\u201d while TheWrap\u2019s William Bibbiani<\/a> said that the movie is proof \u201cthat big, expensive action spectacles don\u2019t have to suck.\u201d<\/p>\n Rolling Stone\u2019s David Fear<\/a> said the movie has a \u201ccomedic road movie\u201d at its heart, \u201cwith as much yuks over a mismatched pair trying to get along as yucks involving the goopy innards of cosmic mastodons.\u201d ComingSoon\u2019s Jonathan Sim<\/a> also praised the movie, saying the movie \u201cmanages to give you what you wanted and what you didn\u2019t know you wanted from a Predator film.\u201d<\/p>\n Predator: Badlands is directed and produced by\u00a0Dan Trachtenberg<\/a>, who co-wrote the screenplay with Patrick Aison, based on characters created by Jim Thomas and John Thomas.

It is produced by John Davis, Marc Toberoff, Ben Rosenblatt, and Brent O\u2019Connor. The movie has received a surprising PG-13 rating, making it the first in the main Predator franchise to not be rated R.<\/p>\n \u201cSet in the future on a deadly remote planet, Badlands follows a young Predator outcast (played by newcomer Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi) who finds an unlikely ally in Thia (Emmy and Golden Globe nominee Elle Fanning) as he embarks on a treacherous journey in search of the ultimate adversary,\u201d reads the film\u2019s official synopsis.<\/p>\n Originally reported by Anthony Nash for SuperHeroHype.<\/a><\/p>\n The post Predator: Badlands Reviews & Rotten Tomatoes Score Among Best in Franchise<\/a> appeared first on ComingSoon.net – Movie Trailers, TV & Streaming News, and More<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Predator: Badlands is set to release on November 7, 2025, and reviews have begun to pour in, posting the weakest mark yet for Dan Trachtenberg\u2019s Predator films, but still scoring extremely high overall.
