I Just Watched Hulu鈥檚 PREY (the latest Predator sequel)... YALL #THIS IS A REC
*whew!!!*
So, a little tidbit about me.
Around 20 years ago, I worked on a rez.聽 They had a community center with a TV and a DVD player with popular movies the people liked.聽 Like any other people in America they had a collection of all the genres, including action blockbusters.
But... there were only two or three actual Indigenous culture-based movies.聽 The rest were mostly Latine (I think owing to the fact of Latine cultures having a lot of Indigenous blood/culture within them).
I remember at the time, it struck me, that even as a black woman, I was privileged in this.聽 NO PEOPLES have less representation in pop culture than the 1st Nations peoples...
You hear me?
And you can forget just a regular-egular Hollywood blockbuster movie.
#PREY should have been that big Hollywood blockbuster sleeper 2022 summer movie theater hit, yall.
It is now, my FAVORITE movie that has come out this summer.
It gave EVERYTHING.
Indigenous folks finally have a big great quality action sci-fi movie.聽
And a Native WOMAN gets to be that badass (I tell u, I reverted to a kid cheering them big 80鈥瞫 muscley yt men action stars from back in the day)
It鈥檚 not gimmicky, quippy, or overly-faux-reverant of the culture in that cringey way yt media does with that ~wise magical NDN~ garbage...No they are just people living their lives.
It just does what it鈥檚 supposed to.聽 It patiently builds enough character so you care what happens to them. It gives that meaningful character journey, heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat and badass-bloody action, and a satisfying ending.
Which is all you want in a action film.
And even tho I鈥檓 not Native, the fact that it鈥檚 also in genre (sci-fi) something I know some yt folks don鈥檛 think marginalized peoples have a leading place in (i.e. woke/forced b.s.), just gave me chills and made me happy in that way BP did, -that another marginalized group is getting space at the table too (long overdue tho it is).
Naru is THEE SHIT.
SEE THIS FUCKING MOVIE YALL, espec. if you are an action movie stan, like myself and/or a Predator fan who has been waiting for the good quality sequel to the OG movie, and like believeable action woman leads.
Just for the record, I like Predator 2 and Predators and don鈥檛 acknowledge the existence of any other sequels, except for that part where Sanaa and the Predator got along (I鈥檓 sorry yall, Predators are the Negroes of aliens in space, I don鈥檛 make the rules....They only gave trophies and ritual to the two black leads)
But PREY????
...MUTHAFCCIN PREY???
It rivals the OG Predator, I KID YOU NOT.
If you are planning to have an action movie night this weekend???聽
Cue this sucker up and get your popcorn.
SEE IT!!
