Man some of y’all hate women
She didn’t overpower the predator, she simply outsmarted him and barely won. It’s not that deep
And I think what people missed the most about this movie was strategy > brute force.
Obviously the lead in this had an above average IQ. This was displayed by how she was able to train/communicate with her dog. It was also displayed by how she was an elite tracker in addition to her medicine knowledge.
The only thing she lacked was confidence which is something the predator/CAC/Indian hunters all had in common. She also lacked arrogance which is what got everyone killed including the predator.
Lastly as far as her combat skills are concerned, she had an older brother and she appeared to be the only one with a sister who had the willingness to learn. If he taught her how to hunt, 9 times out of 10, he taught her how to fight.
I guess people have been conditioned to have the young handsome male lead dominate everything.
Her brother realized her greatness while acknowledging his limitations in defeating the predator. He told her that even though she didn’t kill the lion, her strategy work and it weakened it which made it easier for him to kill. So he returned the favor.
It’s nuances like this that people miss in movies. They need to have shyt dumbed down for them. All the see is a chick and that’s it’s.
