Something that is fund to watch but not your high quality stuff...

Rating: 5/10 (5 March 2006)

Out of the Sci-Fi pictures today there are few that are quite as memorable as the Predator and the Aliens. When they go head to head this seems like it would be a match made in heaven...well it was an interesting fight to be sure.
Introducting in the red corner the Aliens a race of multiplying killers with little in mind other than laying their eggs in your chest and watching the gore start to pour out. In the Blue Corner we have the Preditors a race of hunters that take their work very seriously with high tech weaponry that would make Robocop seem tame. But oddly enough we have another group of fighters in the fray the human targets! Ever the victims of these two warrior races.
I wonder why it seems always necessary to throw in a few token humans to kill. This movie would have been just as enjoyable (If not less disturbing) with just the Aliens and the Predator. These humans are a bunch of explorers trying to unearth an ancient temple of some sort which has them end up in the middle of a fight between two nasty sci-fi critters that don't care what gets in their way.
The effects on this movie and the combat scenes are very good and exciting to watch but the plot is cheesy and any person expecting anything really good from this (though I can't say why) will be disappointed. But if you like combat and gore then this is a good movie to watch. My suggestion though is to rent this one first.
