Great movie if you're a teenager, horrible as it is

Rating: 3/10 (8 May 2017)

I must admit that i used to like this movie (like, a lot). At the time i first watched it i was young and didn't watch Alien or Predator, so i had no comparison point. Almost 11 years after, rewatching it and it doesn't feel the same, i get easily frustrated at the shots where it's almost pitch dark in a situation where nothing special is happening. AVP Requiem have the same kind of shady lightning and it's even worst in this one than the original. The actors are OK at best and the story is lazy. It looks, smells and feels like a generic scenario for a sci-fi movie who needs to fits two franchises together. Both series are good because of their ambiance ( the deep space in Alien and the tropical jungle kind of survivor feeling of Predator). AVP, in contrast, is in a pyramid they found in Antartica.... Neither Aliens or Predators ever are on Earth, it's Sci-fi, not a new episode of Ancient Aliens.
So yeah, watch it for the kickass battle scenes between predators and aliens ( even if there is few and you mostly see nothing thanks to the great lightning, good job guys). Don't expect to see a masterpiece here, it's more for the fans of Ridley Scott who wants to see something unique, but for most of people this movie will probably not remembered.
