"They gave their lives so the hunt could begin".

Rating: 7/10 (16 September 2015)

As sci-fi franchises go, I find the Alien and Predator universes to be quite fascinating, so melding the two into a single story line was done rather creatively here. I like the idea of the Predator hunters luring humans to a remote Antarctic location in order to breed Aliens for sport. Once you take it on faith the rival species could behave this way the possibilities are endless. The idea that a young teenage hunter Predator could form an alliance with a human like Alexa (Sanaa Lathan) was an interesting concept to explore and managed to distinguish the warrior as a noble creature. But the major revelation for me was how Pepsi managed to beat out Coca Cola for product placement honors for this picture. I guess a Coke and a smile just wouldn't have worked under the circumstances.
