Pretty Good.

A Team of scientists travel to Antartica after one of Charles Weyland's satilites find an unusually strong heat spot that is revealed to be a pyramid. Among the scientists is Alexa, a firm ice climber whose job is to ensure that scientists are safe when they go on expeditions around the world.
Her insticts tell her that something isn't right about the whole situation, but she comes along so that everyone is safe. It soon appears that they are not the only ones who have discovered the pyramid.
A smalll team of Predators have arrived for a ritual hunting season against the creatures from the Alien movies. The humans have accidently triggered the pyramid to shift and transform like a giant rubix cube. During the shifting, the Alien Queen is thawed from a frozen like sleep and starts laying eggs. If you know the Alien franchise, you know what will happen to some of the scientists.
A war begins between the two alien races. With the humans cut down in size due to the crossfire, they must struggle to survive and find a way out of the temple, which continues changing shape every 10 minutes.
the beginning half of the film is alright. Maybe closer to bland as they explain everything that is going on before the war commences. But the second half is great if not a little predictable at some moments. Watching the alien races battle is more fun than you would think, for everytime it seems that one side is winning, the other side bounces back with glory. And then it happens again, and again, then vice versa, and one more time for good measure.
hands down the best part of the film is when they are fighting. it is also pretty interesting to see the Predators interact with the humans after they realize that they will not survive without each others help.

The pyramid has a few unexplained areas however. One example would be how it is always changing when there isn't a true power source that is capable of doing such a thing. the film explains that this pyramid has been changing shape every hundred years so the Predators can come back and perform coming-of-age hunts with the Aliens, who are released again and again as a result of the transformations.
Overall not bad, but it could have been better if some areas were a little more explained.
**1/2 out of ****
