الفضائيون ضد المفترسين - القداس

I enjoyed it. I'm a huge Aliens and Predator fan, and honestly I will pretty much watch anything they make around these creatures. Having said that, AVP1 is a super cheese fest that is almost unwatchable. AVP-R pays much more homage to the original series. The creature sounds, score, themes etc. It's very violent, which is good given the subject matter. Cookie cutter characters for the humans, but they're just fodder anyway. My only problem still, is this need to have the AVP setting be modern day earth. WHY? At least make up some planet and have a colony setting. Overall, I was satisfied with it. Good creature FX, minimal CG, rated R, good sets and a better story than AVP1. Is it Aliens? No. If you're a fan of the creatures, you will enjoy it.

No it doesn't have the best character development or story of any movie. But it has F-in aliens and predators tearing stuff up. I don't know what you people expect to get when you go see a movie like this. It was extremely entertaining and I thought it kicked a**. 100 times better than the first one too, I thought that one was pretty bad.

This film and the 1st AvP film both all over the whole Aliens and Predator franchise. They are awful films, badly acted, badly scripted and terribly directed. They just seem like someones desperate attempt to make money off of the good name of the original aliens and predator films but instead of delivering a well thought out, quality production, they came up with the predaturd. The original Alien/Aliens/Predator/Predator 2 films were great, they redefined the horror/thriller genre by inventing these insane (and yet still believable) creatures who took the role of the 'serial killer', as opposed to a human. These films are just milking the franchise and do nothing but darken its name. The Aliens vs Predator comic books were brilliant and had a great story. They were true to the Alien/Predator mythology, didn't crap all over the original stories etc... Why didn't they make the comic book into a great film? Because Hollywood are idiots, thats why.

This film is taking action a few seconds after "Aliens Vs Predator" (2004) directed by Paul W.S. Anderson. But the comparison with the first episode ends there. In AVP Requiem, art direction, SFX, suspense, acting have been much improved compared to its prequel. I think the fierce critics have been frustrated because they expected any film with 'Alien' in its title to be a dark huis-clos with Sigourney Weaver in a spaceship. Unfortunately for them, Alien versus Predator is a different topic. The action takes place on Earth, in present time. If you can deal with this fact, you will find AVP Requiem a very enjoyable action movie, a coherent script, with characters you can connect with, and with some real moments of thrill. And if you are still worried about the depth of the scenario, I can assure you the script is better written than 'Inglorious Bastards' or some recent over-estimated movie.

This entry doesn't contain a spoiler. It doesn't have to. The movie is as predictable as the sunrise. The element in the first Alien movies was the suspense that something COULD happen. This was so in the first two Predator movies, though less prevalent. Requiem has totally removed the element of suspense and replaced it with blood and gore. You know people are going to die (well duh, it is a AvsP movie), but you know WHO is going to die and WHEN they are going to die, AND WHERE they are going to die before it happens. The directors should take a lesson from Hitchcock who said, "Suspense is not a time bomb going off under a table. Suspense is a bomb NOT going off under the table". What's the sense in going to a movie when you know exactly what is going to happen and when? If you really, really want to watch this movie, wait until it comes out on video and then RENT IT, but by no means would I ever buy it.

But that's what I love about it. The Predator is the most bada** representation I've seen and the Predalien was bada** as well. (Skip the Human parts though, just watch the Predator/Alien story. It's not that bad)
