Finally, the book series is getting to the Big Screen...!!!

Rating: 9/10 (20 August 2004)

Actually, this was pretty good for the prototype of bringing the 1st book of 3 to the Big Screen.It was slow moving in at the beginning of the movie building up the characters (for those who have not read the books)"PREY";"WAR" & "HUNTERS'PLANET"....or played the video game. I am glad they kept Lance Heinricksen(BISHOP), to keep a point of reference, as an attachment from the original "Aliens". Speaking for all the die-hard Predator & Alien fans, this movie is worth seeing, but it was "toned-down" quite a bit, not as much "GORE" & fighting as there should have been,beacuse this is NOT a movie for kids(under 13). Why can't we adults have an honest-to-goodness hardcore scary/sci-fi, horror movie(without comedy),like "The Thing-1982"; Predator-1986; and Aliens-1986..!!!
