Predator 2 (1990)

Predator 2 (1990): written by Jim and John Thomas; directed by Stephen Hopkins; starring Danny Glover (Lt. Harrigan), Gary Busey (Keyes), Ruben Blades (Archuleta), Maria Conchita Alonso (Cantrell), Bill Paxton (Lambert), and Kevin Peter Hall (The Predator): 

An enjoyable, trashy, pulpy piece of action-horror with the original writers of Predator but none of the stars or director John McTiernan. Danny Glover is game as our hero, a Los Angeles cop in the far-flung future of 1997. Glover gets to be the Gibsonian hothead instead of the voice of reason of the Lethal Weapon series, two movies old when Predator 2 was made. 

The writing sometimes jarringly veers into Robocop territory when it satirizes vigilantes and media junk, a penchant that the inferior recent The Predator (2018) also indulged to no real end. If you think the weird geography of the Overlook Hotel warrants a conspiracy theory, the impossible geography of the long final battle between Glover and the Predator will blow your mind. Recommended.
