The anthology story follows three of the fiercest warriors in human history: a Viking raider guiding her young son on a bloody quest for revenge, a ninja in feudal Japan who turns against his Samurai brother in a brutal battle for succession, and a WWII pilot who takes to the sky to investigate an otherworldly threat to the Allied cause. But while all these warriors are killers in their own right, they are merely prey for their new opponent -- the ultimate killer of killers.

Critics Consensus

Plunking the Predator into a series of inspired matchups with a striking visual palette, Killer of Killers is a lean, mean, and just plain awesome addition to the iconic sci-fi franchise.

Consequence

Trachtenberg’s imagination here seems literally boundless. The Predator franchise is more than safe in his hands — it’s thriving.

[Features] less-than-stellar writing ... But once the fighting begins, no matter the combatants or dialogue, Killer of Killers is a joy to watch.

That these elemental questions are explored with spine-ripping glee and lushly rendered characters and environments is what makes “Killer of Killers” such a satisfying meal.

Predator: Killer of Killers isn’t unbearable, but as in his previous foray in the franchise, director Dan Trachtenberg takes the titular character and himself way too seriously.

Rated: 2.5/5

Movie Madness Podcast

The film’s animation unfortunately has the feel of video game filler lending a cheap, choppy look to the one-on-one fight scenes lending and the story feels little more than just an episodic setup for what’s to come down the road.

Rated: 2/4

The Movie Blog

Predator: Killer of Killers is a blood-soaked feast of violence, lore, and cinematic flair that makes a serious case for being the best installment in the entire Predator franchise.

Rated: 9/10

I thought this was just going to be a time killer movie but boy was I wrong! I really enjoyed this! The interaction between the characters from different times and cultures was a fantastic addition. 2010's Predators brought characters together from different cultures but not really. They never really delved into the cultures and showed the differences at work. This one did a WAYYYYYY better job of that. I will say that I am normally not a big fan of the 3D animation style but this movie didn't just stop with that easy way out like most do. It put a great flair on the animation much like Arcane did and it really won me over!

The Samurai one was the best. Very cool though.

This movie is insulting to the predator lore. If that means nothing to you then you might enjoy the wild action and gore.

It felt good to have a film i. which the yautja survived their battle and the clan leader seems like a fun pick and I’d enjoy to see more films or shows like this, or a Machiko Noguchi spin off in which a couple yautja survive in the end

There is no redeeming aspects to this talentless drivel. The animation is choppy, lazy, and a pathetic attempt to replicate what was unique from Spiderverse. The poorly developed characters plod through formulaic stories with plot armor that hurts see.
