Highly entertaining with a bad ending (some Spoilers)

Rating: 6/10 (20 August 2004)

AVP was a movie of which I had no high expectations when I went to the theatre. All I wanted was a good 'ol hack 'n slash movie with a bad plot and a bad ending. Well, my expectations were fulfilled! I was lucky to have an excellent crowd with me in the theatre, so we all had a good time watching the 'serpents' hunt their predators! I believe though that to truly appreciate the movie and get all the little jokes and hints you have to have seen the other Alien and Predator movies. Bishop, the sacrificial chamber, the goo hinting towards the aliens... Personally I was a little disappointed to see the aliens classified as stupid bloodthirsty savages, but that was to be expected. Anyway, I would definitely recommend watching this movie. Go with a good crowd, don't expect too much, have fun and forget about the ending.
7/10
