Why isn't Predators (2010) great?

AVP did more than 170 mil worldwide for a 60 mil budget.

AVPR did around 130 mil worldwide for a 40 mil budget.

Putting in my two cents here since I now just discovered this topic. I like Predators but it's also one of the ones I watch the least because it's boring and bland and it's also the one where three Predators do a worse job than one, ultimately making the Predators a lot less badass than they should be. Aside from that, I also just found the pacing weird in some places.

Some fans find it underrated, well I find it just rated, overall.

I couldn't have said it better.

Also, to add insult to injury, I find anything done by Robert Rodriguez to be of questionable quality, particularly in the Boba Fett series, where there's this sort of 'fan' quality to his pictures and it definitely shows in this one, despite not directing it.
