AVP- Not Truly a Good Film

Rating: 5/10 (24 May 2008)

This movie is sort of P.O.S (piece of sh*t) quality, but it does have a couple redeeming points. But I'll get to those. Right now is the review of AVP (Alien vs Predator):
Plot: The title pretty much explains it all. but unfortunately, we don't get to see either side until at least 45 minutes into the film (my memory is foggy). Pretty much, this movie focuses on humans instead of the famous movie creatures. Plot score- 4/10, reason- because of the freaking wait for either monster to show up.
Cast: Aside from Sanaa Lathan, Lance Henriksen, Tom Woodruff Jr. and Ian Whyte, the rest of the cast is sort of... well clunky. Not terrible, just not suited for this movie, that's all. Cast score- 6/10, reason- most of the cast is just not suited for the movie.
SFX: One plus side of this movie (aside from the cast members that I mentioned) is the special effects for this movie. Amalgamated Dynamics Inc. (ADI) did pretty well in this movie. Companies Double Negative, Cinesite, Framestore CFC and Ghost (Bionicle fans who saw this movie will recognize the commercials they did) were also good. But the one complaint I had was that the feet of the CG Aliens were not similar to the one that Woodruff's Grid costume and the stunt people playing the other ones wore. Effects score- 8/10, reason- The CG alien feet looked nothing like the costume's feet.
Overall: This movie is okay, not great or horrible, just okay. Score- 5/10 (I don't want to use a sign off today because of the long length of this review)
