Good film, good story following, POOR DIALOGUE

Rating: 6/10 (14 August 2004)

I am a huge Aliens fan and a relatively big Predator fan. I also loved the games. So obviously I've been waiting for this film for quite some time. This project has an IMMENSE name to live up to, and the probabily of continuaty errors (sp?) is very high. But to my surprise, its not that bad!
The Bad: Directing was a bit weak, a film of this stature required a much more talented director..but most any director with some talent could have done a better job, at least one whose skill was equal to the hype of the film.
The Humans, their dialogue is just plain stupid. Character development is near nonexistant as well.
The Good: Aliens Predators
CONSISTENCY!!! When combining two major series, especially such as this, plot holes tend to appear left and right. However, as I watched it I failed to find a single such consistency error. The predators and aliens lived/fought/etc exactly as their previous movies had dictated them to do. I had a great fear of mistakes going into this aspect but it pulled out incredibly well and overall made me enjoy the movie alot more than I otherwise would have.
