Call the Ghostbusters.

Rating: 4/10 (3 September 2015)

AVP: Alien Vs Predator (2004): Dir: Paul W.S. Anderson / Cast: Sana Lathan, Lance Henriksen, Ewen Bremner, Raoul Bova, Colin Salmon: Here we are again with the combination of two franchises that had great films as well as pitiful installments within. Here we have a big budget circus act about one dominating factor conquering another. Great production and visual elements are the norm as the premise rushes introduction and cardboard characters discover a pyramid but are really there to be eaten. The predators breed the queen alien and then hunt the creatures. This is about as intelligent as starting a forest fire and trying to put it out yourself. Two predators are killed by aliens while a third befriends Sana Lathan because she killed an alien. He is so thrilled with her act that he allows her to live. Their friendship mirrors the children in an episode of Barney. I half expected the predator to break out in song, "I love you. You love me..." Useless cast headed by a sick and brainless organizer played by Lance Henriksen. They makers obviously have forgotten that Henriksen was in Aliens. Ewen Bremner and Raoul Bova also appear on the menu but perhaps the biggest joke is the heroine played by Lathan who should go on Animal Planet to discuss her discoveries. Directed by Paul W.S. Anderson and like Freddy Vs Jason it celebrates franchises that are well past their prime. Score: 4 / 10
