Empire - Ian Nathan
More story-led than the original with a high enough body count to make it a satisfying action movie.

Washington Post - Rita Kempley
Beautifully outfitted and moodily photographed, the movie is directed by Stephen Hopkins, the Jamaican-born Australian responsible for Nightmare on Elm Street V. He keeps the pedal to the metal but never allows the explosive action to minimize his actors.

Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas
Virtually everything about the film is derivative--even the design for the eerie setting for the climactic struggle recalls the interiors of the more exotic old movie palaces--but its makers can't be accused of cutting corners. No doubt about it, those who ask only for pure action will be getting their money's worth.

TV Guide Magazine - Unnamed
The film's energy and style are enough to recommend it. Lovers of the original should be pleased with this effort, as should most fans of the genre.

Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
Since the predator is imaginary but the people who made this film are not, Predator 2 speaks sadly of their own lack of curiosity and imagination.
