Review of Prey

Prey (VI) (2021)
3/10
Very slow, cliché ridden, promises, does not deliver.
12 September 2021
There's no new ground here, a bachelor party turns into a slaughter fest, as two brothers, and three friends venture into the wilderness.

I really do like atmosphere and tension as a rule, but this takes it too far, and apart from a few nice scenes, it drags on way too slowly.

The characters are all clichés, we have the family link, the quiet and scared one, the gay one, the cute one, and of course the angry one.

I watched it with friends, and they enjoyed it, I'm afraid I yawned through most of it, just too slow, the major plus point has to be the visuals, it does look very nice, but to reach the end, it's a slog. Worst of all is the embarrassing ending.

Once again I find myself struggling to find a good film on Netflix.

Maybe if it had been condensed down to 60 minutes, it may have worked a little bit better, unfortunately it's too much of a slog, 3/10.
