The most unintentionally hilarious movie I've ever seen

Rating: 2/10 (13 August 2004)

WARNING: SPOILERS
I saw this last night at midnight. I've only seen Aliens and the first Predator. My buddies wanted to go, and I figured "it looks lame, but OK". I went in expecting it to be a cheesy scifi/horror/action movie, and for the first half of the movie, it met my expectations. Cool special effects, decent action scenes, and then, about halfway through or so, it changed.
I'd been giggling at some of the absurdities throughout, mostly to myself, but when the Predator gives Alexa (was that her name? I don't remember) the Alien head as a shield and his tail on a stick as a spear, i started laughing out loud. And I wasn't alone. However, the funniest scene was next as the "slow motion running" scene with the Predator and Alexa running in silhouette. Somehow, it became a buddy movie. And wtf was with the ending, with the head Predator giving her the spear thing? She's still stranded in Antarctica, jackass, how 'bout giving her a lift back to civilization?
Anyways, seriously, the movie just became laughable, almost a parody of the earlier movies. It was just silly. Like I said, I thought the action sequences were alright, nothing special. I did like the move the Predator made on the Mother Alien at the end though.
One thing that should have been a warning, look at the stars. I'm not saying you need stars to make a good movie, but that's basically the name of the game in summer blockbusters. No Sigourney, Arnold, Glover, Rider, Hurt, Holm, not even a Paul Reiser. When the biggest stars you have is Spud from Trainspotting and Cicero from Gladiator, then you're hurting. (I don't count Lance, cuz he's a returning actor, and besides, other than the Alien movies and Milennium, who is he?)
