Predator 2 is the sequel to Predator, released in 1990.Ten years after the events of the first movie, Los Angeles is suffering under a Heat Wave, and a war between Jamaican and Colombian drug cartels is running wild. LAPD Lt. Mike Harrigan (Danny Glover) and his team find that something is killing members of both factions — and after meeting a fake DEA task force led by Special Agent Peter Keyes (Gary Busey), Harrigan discovers that said something is an alien, and the "task force" have been waiting for one to reappear since previous events in Central America (and apparently they know how to dance).

Aliens Speaking English: The City Hunter and the Elder Predator. Justified, as the Predators have been monitoring Earth for centuries as well as tapping into local transmissions and radio broadcasts. However, they seem to struggle a bit with enunciation due to the alien structure of their mouths.

Applied Phlebotinum: Glowing blue jello made with a primary ingredient of drywall (since this is Earth) can apparently heal the most dire of wounds. The Predator has weapons beyond our understanding, so why not medicine too? This is also a case of Clarke's Third Law.

Snowy Screen of Death: The Predator massacres the special forces team sent to capture him, but when this trope is shown in Mission Control (where they naturally conclude that everyone is dead) it turns out the last member of the team had merely pulled off his Hazmat Suit helmet (with attached camera) so he could see better.

Tempting Fate: Just before the Predator's first appearance, one of the Colombians — tooled up and high on coke — brags that he's ready for anything. He's not. Keyes — boasting about saving Harrigan's ass — is effortlessly killed by the City Hunter's Smart Disc when it bisects him.

Ambiguous Situation; The circumstances surrounding Danny's death. Did the City Hunter see him as prey, and stopped his fall because it would be an unsportsmanlike victory? Did he try saving him, and only killed him when Danny panicked and started shooting? Did the Hunter leave the necklace for Harrigan as a threat, or as a gesture of respect from one warrior to another, or even as an apology?

Just Train Wrong: The movie is set in Los Angeles, except the subway train fight clearly takes place on a BART train, which is from San Francisco, and the distinctive "Ba" logo can be seen on the front of the train in one shot.note no local sub cars were available, as LA's subway wouldn't open until 1993, after the movie was made but before it is set

Crapsack World: Much like Demolition Man released a few years later, the then future 90's Los Angeles is presented as a polluted, lawless and crowded Urban Hellscape (Much like the real deal but dialed up a notch or two). Gangs are armed to the teeth with military grade weapons and wage brutal war for control of the streets, the LAPD are undermanned and overextended and apparently things have gotten so bad that the local Pompous Political Pundit is calling for the mayor to declare martial law. And this is all before the Predator shows up...

After persuading him otherwise, Harrigan is warned not to intervene, only to reply likewise. Harrigan is warned You Have No Idea Who You're Dealing With by Keyes, who later repeats the line during the Internal Reveal that Harrigan really does have no idea who he's dealing with.

Good Guns, Bad Guns
 Predator 2 / int_25afd4a3
comment
Good Guns, Bad Guns: The LAPD unit under Lt. Harrigan primarily uses a selection of a advanced semi-auto handguns with modifications like laser sights and underbarrel flashlights that would normally come across as "bad" weapons, especially Harrigan's brushed chrome Desert Eagle. Justified, however, as the movie (released in 1990) is set in a 1997 where LA has devolved into an Urban Hellscape dominated by warring gangs, and the police need the extra firepower to keep up. Late in the movie, when Harrigan goes after the titular alien, he upgrades to two classically "good" guns — a CAR-15 (a shorter barreled AR-15) fitted with an M203 grenade launcher and a shotgun. The various gangs shown throughout the movie use just about every kind of "bad" gun there is at one point or another. Machine pistols and submachine guns are the most common, but "advanced" guns like the Steyr AUG and heavy machine guns like the M60 are also used. Colombian gang leader El Scorpio uses a pair of Micro Uzis and then a Grenade Launcher. Jamaican gang leader "Gold Tooth" has a high-caliber revolver with gold plating and ivory grips. The government agents under Keyes, perhaps as a clue that they aren't exactly "good", as they're trying to capture the Predator alive despite knowing about its explosive self-destruct mechanism, are seen carrying "advanced" Muzzlelite bullpup-style guns and a modified M60.

More Dakka: At the start of the movie, Harrigan goes through his trunkful of weapons, rejects a .45 automatic as "Too small...", then grabs a shotgun strapped to the lid instead. Meanwhile, the Colombians are tooling up from a room full of firearms that turns out to be not enough to handle the Predator. Later, when fighting the Predator himself, Harrigan goes to his trunk again and reveals he's got an M16/M203 in there.

Urban Hellscape: The film portrays 1997 Los Angeles as a war zone between two rival gangs which are portrayed as foreign (particularly Jamaican) stereotypes, including constant drug use, barbaric forms of violence, and voodoo. The protagonist Mike Harrigan is, naturally, a renegade cop who gets results but is constantly chewed out by his superior officer.

comment
Even Evil Has Standards: While the Predator is still Hunting the Most Dangerous Game, it targets drug dealers and goes after other types of criminals during its hunt. It also doesn't harm a kid when it sees that the kid only has a toy gun. And even though Cantrell both has a gun and tries to fire it at him, it leaves her alone upon realizing that she's pregnant. However, it does leave Archuleta's necklace for Harrigan, suggesting it is taunting a Worthy Opponent. However, this also shows the creature holds some respect for Harrigan. After Harrigan defeats the Predator in its space ship, the other Predators decloak themselves and respectfully take the body away, while the lead Predator rewards Harrigan with a trophy (since they're keeping the body), suggesting that they were watching the whole time, but did not want to interfere in a battle between two warriors, and that the leader felt Harrigan deserved some kind of reward for his victory.

Remember That You Trust Me: Lambert hits Harrigan with the "door swings both ways" part of the speech Harrigan gives early on when Harrigan tries to leave him and Cantrell behind in his hunt for the Predator, presumably for their own safety after Archuleta's death. Harrigan comes around and decides they'll do it together. Not long after, while the Predator is following Lambert around, it turns out he actually took Harrigan's attempt to lie to them fairly hard.

You Shall Not Pass!: While police officer Leona ushers the passengers on a subway car to safety, her partner Jerry Lambert tries to hold off the title alien monster by shooting at it. He is killed by the Predator, but his Heroic Sacrifice saves many of the passengers from being killed.

Astonishingly Appropriate Interruption: Harrigan removes the unconscious Predator's helmet to reveal its alien features, and starts to repeat Dutch's line from the first movie, "You are one ugly—." Just before he delivers the final word, the Predator wakes up and grabs Harrigan by the throat, snarling "Motherfucker!"

Cowboy Cop: Lieutenant Harrigan, who ignores orders whenever he feels like it to get the job done. It's gotten him in a fair bit of trouble, which probably would have got him canned anywhere else. Jerry Lambert too — at his old precinct he was even nicknamed "The Lone Ranger", apparently for his reputation for getting partners killed (if Leona is to be believed).

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
 Predator 2 / int_3ed23024
comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: This trope factors into battle with The City Hunter and works as a blessing and curse. Lt. Harrigan finds surprising success fighting The City Hunter as the villain is an adolescent going through a rite of passage and isn't as experienced as the Jungle Hunter that Dutch fought. Still, Harrigan finds his battles far from easy. Keyes eventually settles on potentially recruiting Harrigan into his secret department as making him "go missing" would be a Revealing Cover Up and he'd be much more valuable as a battle-worn ally having shown his sheer will and determination to track down The City Hunter and doing so with much more limited resources. We don't see this development due to Keyes and most of his team getting wiped out, but Garber does let Harrigan go free at the end of the film. Keyes thinks he has everything planned out, but like many missions, you still have to plan on something going wrong like your target figuring out your trap and doing something you didn't predict. Something like this sends the operation into disarray. The City Hunter may be too resilient for most people to handle, but multiple shotgun blasts to the torso still leaves him incapacitated temporarily and puts him on the defensive. Add in further injury on top of that, and things get even easier for Harrigan. Additionally, as with many organisms, dealing with an amputation and treating the gaping wound is still extremely painful.

Worthy Opponent: The Predator quickly clocks Harrigan as a fellow warrior, which is cemented when Harrigan senses it on a rooftop while the Predator is cloaked. Meanwhile, it doesn't seem to know (or care) who the hell Keyes even is. After killing King Willie, it goes to the extra effort to take his head back and mount it on its trophy rack, presumably because he stood and fought to the death hand-to-hand, despite being badly outmatched. It takes Jerry Lambert's head as well for standing up to it on the subway.

Gory Discretion Shot: When Danny is killed off-screen by the Predator, blood drips down to the floor beneath him. King Willie senses the Predator coming, draws his Cane Sword, and prepares for his end. Cut to the Predator walking off with his severed head. Shadows hide the worst of Jerry Lambert's head and spine being taken as trophies, but it's obvious what's happening. When Keyes gets sliced in half by the City Hunter's razor disc, the shot is obscured by the hanging slabs of meat.

comment
Combat Breakdown: As Harrigan and the Predator square off in their final battle, they start as Walking Arsenals and gradually lose their weapons to each other. Harrigan loads up with guns and a bulletproof vest with metal insert from the trunk of his car, the Predator has all its formidable hunting tools and weapons. Harrigan damages the Predator's plasma cannon with his assault rifle, the Predator wrecks Harrigan's armor vest and assault rifle with a projectile fired from its gauntlet. Harrigan blasts the Predator with his shotgun, stunning it and taking off its mask, the Predator smashes the shotgun. The Predator throws its spear at Harrigan, Harrigan takes it and tries to impale the Predator, and they both fall off the edge of a building, losing the spear. The Predator loses its grip on the razor disc, which Harrigan uses to cut its left gauntlet (and arm) off, disabling the self-destruct and cloaking device. Harrigan drops his last gun, his pistol, climbing after the Predator again. By the time they have their final showdown, they're down to one weapon apiece: the Predator's wrist blades and Harrigan using its Smart Disc.

Crooks Are Better Armed
 Predator 2 / int_55501673
comment
Crooks Are Better Armed: The Action Prologue sets up the situation regarding the drug gangs on the city. They are so much better-armed (with machine guns and, in the opening shootout, even grenade launchers) that nothing the L.A.P.D. can field, not even S.W.A.T., can take them head-on. When the Predator starts doing its business and slaughtering gang members in droves, the press (but not the cops) is quick to call them a bunch of Asshole Victims getting their due. Additionally, a cop on the scene mentions that S.W.A.T. is having its' ass kicked in a similar shootout on the other side of town where the Jamaicans have shot down one of the LAPD's helicopters. During the opening firefight, the cops are wearing body armour and some are armed with MP5s and G3s. At first glance, this could mean they are S.W.A.T. operatives but then Danny mentions that the actual S.W.A.T. team is engaged elsewhere. Things have gotten so bad on the streets that body armour and automatic weapons have become standard issue for LAPD patrol officers, and it's still not enough to keep up.

 Predator 2 / int_6b05b601
comment
Jerkass Has a Point: Keyes is a dick, but he is correct when he points out to Harrigan that he's in way over his head. Funnily enough, despite his preparations and arrogance, so was he. Keyes and his team are ultimately amongst the good guys and want to stop the Predator as much as Harrigan does but to capture rather than just kill it and in order to exploit its' technology. In fact Keyes and his team actually save Harrigan's life on several occasions, intervening in the slaughterhouse battle, warning him of the self destruct mechanism etc. Tony Pope is a total slimeball, but he makes a pretty solid point about the mayor of LA being on vacation in Lake Tahoe while his city is basically turning into an all-out warzone, with cops getting wasted left and right. This is shown at the beginning of the film when SWAT can't help out the rest of the police in the opening scene's firefight because they're too busy fighting another battle in a different part of the city at the same time. Deputy Chief Heiniemman twice warns Harrigan to not interfere with Keyes' investigation and Harrigan ignores him, getting one of his men badly wounded in the armoury shootout and getting Danny killed. To his credit Heiniemman keeps Harrigan in the investigation despite all this.

The Reveal
 Predator 2 / int_6b2b3b59
comment
The Reveal: Played with. Like in the first movie, we get only fleeting glimpses of the Predator early on, it sometimes gives an Imminent Danger Clue with its targeting laser or cloak, and it's not until the climax begins that it stays on screen for any length of time. However, here, these glimpses start much earlier and are more numerous, confirming what a viewer who has seen the original already knows, but still preserving the reveal of what exactly is going on until later for a viewer who hasn't.

Ruthless Foreign Gangsters: Both the Colombians and the Jamaicans are showcased as two gangs completely willing and able to turn (and are in the middle of turning) the whole of Los Angeles into a Beirut-style warzone for the sake of seeing which will rule the local underground. The Predator ends up trumping the both of them, however.

King Willie is a noteworthy cold ham, and his subordinate Gold Tooth is magnificently hammy for the short time that he's around.

Unlike in the first movie, however, the corresponding moments each happen significantly earlier within the runtime than in the first film, and on top of that, we also even get to see nine other Yautjas near the end of the film just following the main one's death.

Contrasting Sequel Setting
 Predator 2 / int_95df9d98
comment
Contrasting Sequel Setting: Lampshaded by the opening which transitions from a view of an urban forest to a shot of downtown Los Angeles. This movie essentially swaps out the Central American jungle of the first film for the crime-ridden streets of 1990s Los Angeles. Not only does this change the setting's aesthetics, but it also changes the role of the protagonist (from an elite commando with a bodybuilder physique to a fairly average cop), the secondary human antagonists (from guerrilla fighters to drug gangs embroiled in a turf war), as well as raising the stakes for the final showdown: now, when the Predator threatens to use its Self-Destruct Mechanism, it's in the middle of a densely-populated city.

Made of Iron: It's to be expected from the Predator, but Harrigan takes a fair amount of punishment himself, including getting shot with the beast's plasma weapon (a bulletproof vest/steel plate combo keeps him alive, but it still knocks the wind out of him) and a long drop down an elevator shaft, but he's relentless in chasing the Predator.

Continuity Nod
 Predator 2 / int_9dab0a6e
comment
Continuity Nod: The classic line: A character drawing a knife and making a Last Stand with it, shrieking and all. Twice. The first happens as soon as the hero leaves, albeit not to make a Heroic Sacrifice. There is also an Outrun the Fireball moment that mirrors the end of the first film. The music that played as Mac mourned Blain in the previous film plays as Mike visits Danny's grave, before he finds Danny's necklace. Similarly, the music when Jerry takes on the Predator is almost identical to the one heard when Billy did the same in the first film.

Revealing Cover-Up
 Predator 2 / int_a1b0bde2
comment
Keyes eventually settles on potentially recruiting Harrigan into his secret department as making him "go missing" would be a Revealing Cover Up and he'd be much more valuable as a battle-worn ally having shown his sheer will and determination to track down The City Hunter and doing so with much more limited resources. We don't see this development due to Keyes and most of his team getting wiped out, but Garber does let Harrigan go free at the end of the film.

Cop Killer
 Predator 2 / int_a3eea2ea
comment
Cop Killer: Aside from the gang members at the beginning who openly fight the police, the Predator itself has no compunctions towards killing police officers, and kills Danny and Jerry to goad Harrigan into fighting him. However, these kills were not in violation of the City Hunter's code of honor, given both of them were armed and tried to shoot him. It's not like the City Hunter particularly knows or cares what a cop is, though. They have weapons, and they're fighting back, so they're fair game.

Oh, Crap!: From the face King Willie makes when the Predator jumps down into the alley and begins walking towards him, he definitely knows he's completely screwed. Harrigan when it turns out there are more. He's completely exhausted and can't muster much of a reaction, but the way he flinches when the targeting laser appears and his resigned sarcasm over the situation say it all. In this case, of course, it turns out it's not a necessary reaction, because he's in no danger after all. The Predator itself has a fantastic one right before Harrigan uses its disc to slice its arm off, destroying the self-destruct bomb.It has another minor one just before that when hearing noise in the meat storage plant, and after cycling through several vision modes, suddenly seeing an entire team of government agents hunting it.

The LAPD unit under Lt. Harrigan primarily uses a selection of a advanced semi-auto handguns with modifications like laser sights and underbarrel flashlights that would normally come across as "bad" weapons, especially Harrigan's brushed chrome Desert Eagle. Justified, however, as the movie (released in 1990) is set in a 1997 where LA has devolved into an Urban Hellscape dominated by warring gangs, and the police need the extra firepower to keep up. Late in the movie, when Harrigan goes after the titular alien, he upgrades to two classically "good" guns — a CAR-15 (a shorter barreled AR-15) fitted with an M203 grenade launcher and a shotgun.

Waterlogged Warzone: When Lt. Harrigan uses a grenade to blow open the door to the slaughterhouse, the resulting fire sets off the ceiling sprinklers, causing the floor to become covered in water. The Predator's invisibility shield is shorted out by water, making it visible and much more vulnerable to Harrigan's gunfire during their battle.

Too Dumb to Live: On a subway train, a small gang of punks try to rob a man who looks like a weak and easy mark. They should really know better as everyone on the train is armed, and aim their hand guns at the punks to make them lower their weapons, rendering the idea of public robbery pointless if not suicidal. However, this is the least of their worries when The City Hunter breaks into the train and starts hunting the armed passengers.

Failed Future Forecast
 Predator 2 / int_bb40e7e0
comment
Failed Future Forecast: The movie predicted that by 1997, Los Angeles would decay into a dystopian Crapsack World with drug gangs in open war with the police and themselves, using military-grade hardware and body counts seemingly in the thousands. The police themselves show elements of being an occupying force in their own city, and Harrigan himself refers to his beat as "the war." Based on the high crime rates of L.A. in the late 1980s and early 1990s, this didn't seem too far-fetched circa 1990, but fast forward to the second decade of the 21st century and we see that Los Angeles, while still not a utopia, has far lower crime rates than it did at the time the film was made.

Keyes is a dick, but he is correct when he points out to Harrigan that he's in way over his head. Funnily enough, despite his preparations and arrogance, so was he. Keyes and his team are ultimately amongst the good guys and want to stop the Predator as much as Harrigan does but to capture rather than just kill it and in order to exploit its' technology. In fact Keyes and his team actually save Harrigan's life on several occasions, intervening in the slaughterhouse battle, warning him of the self destruct mechanism etc.

Shout-Out: Before the Aliens vs. Predator films, this film showed a rack of trophy skulls in the Predator ship, including one from a Xenomorph. Keeping with the Alien mythos, Lambert has the same surname as Joan Lambert from the first Alien movie, suggesting Jerry might have been an ancestor. A rather obvious one from Keyes: The scene where Keyes and his team confront the Predator in the slaughterhouse is practically an Homage to the scene in Aliens where the Marines first encounter the Xenomorphs.

The Predator. Even after it gets pumped full of shotgun shells and loses its left arm, it is still fierce enough to confront Harrigan again (although it does flee to the Predator ship first to try and level the playing field). It does lose points, though, because earlier, when things turned against it, it went straight for the self-destruct button instead of even trying to fight.

Anti-Villain: Compared to the Jungle Hunter from the first film, the City Hunter comes across as far more honourable. It even spares an armed police officer when it discovers that she is pregnant. It does employ the same self destruct device as the Jungle Hunter when about to be captured but it could be argued this is a case of "Death before dishonour" or simply to avoid humans such as Keyes recovering and exploiting its' advanced alien technology, interfering with humanity's development.

Hunting the Most Dangerous Game
 Predator 2 / int_d2566b32
comment
While the Predator is still Hunting the Most Dangerous Game, it targets drug dealers and goes after other types of criminals during its hunt. It also doesn't harm a kid when it sees that the kid only has a toy gun. And even though Cantrell both has a gun and tries to fire it at him, it leaves her alone upon realizing that she's pregnant. However, it does leave Archuleta's necklace for Harrigan, suggesting it is taunting a Worthy Opponent. However, this also shows the creature holds some respect for Harrigan.

Trashy True Crime: Tony Pope (played by Real Life trash-talk show host Morton Downey Jr.) is a "journalist" for the blood-and-guts crime show Hard Core. He slithers around the edges of the story, sensationalizing the brutal deaths in a drug war tearing Los Angeles apart, criticizing the police, and even trespassing into active crime scenes for footage of dead gang members. He gets on Lt. Harrigan's bad side one too many times at the climax, and ends up getting his lights punched out by Harrigan for his troubles.

Space Whale Aesop: The subway massacre scene was actually conceived as a Take That! to vigilantism, which explains why the man the gang members are accosting resembles real-life subway vigilante Bernard Goetz. So the moral of the story is, don't plan to take the law into your own hands, otherwise intergalactic hunters will slaughter you. Wait, what? To be fair, the Aesop is that said gang members may also be armed, likely moreso than you. Also, don't worry about being disarmed, because you'll be no sport to a Predator and thus live to tell the tale.

Her role in the film consists of being seen having sex with her Colombian drug lord boyfriend, being heavily implied to be gang-raped by the Jamaicans who attack him in his penthouse, running around screaming in terror as the Predator kills the Jamaicans, then being discovered by Harrigan's team, having Leona wrap her in a coat, and telling Leona in Spanish that "the devil came for them."

Pet the Dog: The Predator prepares to attack a child who points a toy gun at it, then relents when it realizes the weapon is fake. It later spares Leona when it sees she's pregnant, despite having massacred the rest of her squad and her being armed. Keyes saves Harrigan from the Predator. He's still a prick about it, but keep in mind Keyes doesn't even like Harrigan (and actually even threatened to kill him himself earlier). Tony Pope is an abrasive asshole who harasses and mocks the ineffectiveness of the police, but on reporting Danny's death, he goes out of his way to call him a "good cop, one of the best on our force!"
