Alien3 is a masterpiece compared to AVP...

Rating: 3/10 (22 October 2004)

Bad script, bad acting, characters who you don't care if they live or die, enough plot holes to sink the Titanic in, and extreme boredom until the last 10 minutes.
If these are the type of things you like in a movie, go watch AVP. It is truly awful. How this ever got past the test screenings I'll never know.
None of the characters in this film have anything approaching the type of on-screen pull that the original Alien crew did, or even the original Predator cast. You just don't care enough about them to be bothered when they're killed. The Aliens are their usual killing selves, but even the Queen seems a bit of a wuss compared to the one in Aliens. The predators aren't as mean as the originals either.
If you want AVP, go read the comics. Don't waste 2 hours of your life sitting through this. Get the DVD on rental, cause you sure as hell won't want to buy it!
