6.9 out of 10

Rating: Null/10 (21 August 2004)

I went into this movie expecting it to be pretty good. And that's what I got. Most of the movie was well done, and, I thought the references to both the Alien and Predator movies was a good feature. The storyline involving the humans, aliens, and predators and the pyramid was great, I thought. It really pulled everything together. And, I was really happy with the film up until Lex (Sanaa Lathan) handed over her gun to the predator and they went off to battle aliens together. The scenes with them running side by side in slow motion were a little ridiculous. Personally, I would have had two predators get up to the point where Lex hands over the gun. Then, I would have had an alien kill Lex with it's tail suddenly and then the two predators fight it and everything else that happens ensues, with the second remaining predator taking the place of Lex. A true Alien Vs. Predator ending.
In the end, I was satisfied with the movie. I can't bring myself to give it a seven though. I give it a 6.9 out of 10.
