What a letdown

Rating: Null/10 (15 August 2004)

Question: how many more movies are the studios going to let that hack Anderson direct before realizing that he kills any franchise he touches?
This movie had so much potential it was scary. With the comic books and the video games, there was already a fan base craving this movie, and then the studio hires Anderson, and he turns it into a teenybopper PG movie. Sacrilege. The movie had a horrible plot, bad cinematography, and several plot inconsistencies. Id go into them, but I only have 1000 words so I have to keep this brief. The only good part of this movie was the costumes and creatures. The aliens looked the best I've ever seen them, and I cant stop raving about the predators. They look fantastic. Huge, hulking, and intimidating. Just like a predator should. But thats the ONLY thing this movie has going for it. Definitely a renter. Or better yet, pirate this movie. Don't give the studios your money. After this tripe, they don't deserve it.
