I wasn't expecting much, but more than this

Rating: Null/10 (14 August 2004)

I was a very angry man walking out of the theater. I knew this movie would suck. Any time a movie doesn't allow critics to review it you know there's a problem. So, I was ready to watch a crappy movie. I was ready to make certain concessions. Nothing original necessary, no great plot, little coherence is even necessary. All I ask is that you don't require me to be a moron to enjoy it. Unfortunately it failed at even this meager task.
The story takes place at the end of 2004. But for some reason the boss of "The Company" who is very much alive in Alien3 is dying, and oh no *spoiler* dies in this movie. No explanation is offered. How is it that a man who dies in a pyramid buried hundreds of feet under ground which is latter blown up is alive hundreds of years later looking exactly the same as he did before. I don't know, does our good friend Mr. Anderson know the answer? I think not.
Another thing. Where did all the full grown aliens come from. One minute they're bursting from the chest 5 minutes later they're full grown. What gives? You get the feeling that the guy who wrote this movie never even saw the alien movies.
Finally the fight scenes between aliens and predators were pathetic. It looked just like two guys in costumes rolling around on the floor. I wouldn't have been surprised to see miniature cardboard sky scrapers at their feet.
Oh Predator we'll be friends forever . . .
