Posted January 11, 200817 yr Although i didnt see the first, im gonna watch this one. Mainly cos its my mates birthday and the Alien and Predator films are one of his fave movie franchise so we are gonna watch this on friday. The trailer looks really gory but surprisingly.... Its only a 15! Anyone gonna watch?
January 12, 200817 yr I've seen it a while back. It was ok, barely thou. The first one was a real disaster (making Alien/Predator flick with a pg-13 rating - WTF???). This at least was R-rated and had blood and guts but the story disappoints again. I mean the premise, even thou very basic, still sounded good enough. The problem is that the characters are SO steretypical (especially that horrendous Ripley-clone) that you really want all of them dead as soon as possible and you won't be rooting for anyone. I hoped a few more thrills also and even some surprise about who is going to survive/die. But still, with the narrow 90-minutes running-time and the action it kept me, even thou barely, entertained. And the two people I saw it with actually thought it was way better than they had expected (thou they had expected horrendous c**p so much better from that ain't that great still). I'd recommend the other thriller I just saw, the Spanish The Orphanage. Even thou there is no explosions and such that was SO much better film. Hopefully it will get nominated for the best foreign film oscar.
January 16, 200817 yr going to see this on Friday i think, liked the first one even though it really isnt my type of film hope the 2nd is good also
January 17, 200817 yr The "Alien Vs Predator" films do nothing more than disgrace both of these once great film franchises... "Alien Resurrection" may not have been great, but it's still head and shoulders above the utter craposity of these two films....
January 17, 200817 yr looking to see this soon. I saw the first 5 mins of the film on CH 4 (preview) and it looked pretty good. Worth a watch as this is a dual franchise im very interested.
January 19, 200817 yr Author i liked it but... i thought the dialogue was horrible and the ending was pure cheeeeeeeeeeese. was more cheese than what i had on my chips. but still it was a good film. i would give it 7 or 8 out 10 Edited January 19, 200817 yr by Joao Filipe
January 20, 200817 yr same. I thought parts of the movie were excellent and really brought back the best parts of Aliens and also the best parts of the Predator series. Problem was the parts around that which felt slow on occasion and loosely fitted together. The ending was VERY cheesy and people take a lot from the ending of a movie. I can imagine there will now be a third in the series as now they have brought it back to Earth and made it different there is scope for something more.
