A GOD AWFUL MESS!

Rating: 1/10 (16 August 2004)

Paul Anderson's "Alien vs Predator" is one of the most insulting pieces of garbage that I have ever seen. While watching the movie one has to wonder, did the director ever see "Alien" or "Predator"? Almost everything about the movie is wrong. The Script was obviously written on a Napkin in crayon by an 8 year old. The Characters are extremely unlikable and the story is stupid and boring. The Predators remind me of a cross between Super Shredder (from "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2"), and the San Francisco 49ers. As for the Aliens, they look suprisingly good, and even some of the Alien vs Predator fight scenes are cool. But even that can't save this turd. Apparently these aren't the same aliens as in the other movies, because they burst out of your chest within minutes of the eggs being layed. Errors in logic like that are unforgivable, especially when your making a film that all the ground work has been layed for.
Seeing the once great Lance Henricksen in dreck like this makes me sick. Sadly it seems like he just showed up for the Paycheck.

The movie just goes from bad to worse. Then Paul Anderson takes it one step further and makes the entire audience laugh in disbelief, in one of the most idiotic plot twists in recent memory. Oh, and Lets not forget him turning the Queen Alien into the T-Rex from "Jurassic Park". There's really not much more to say other than STAY AWAY. Remember, there's a reason FOX didn't screen this movie for Critics until the last minute. They knew they had the next "House of the Dead" in their hands.
