Now that was cheesy fun

Rating: 7/10 (18 April 2007)

I took a few moments to read others comments and seriously there are some very disturbed people out there. So many of the points brought up (in the negative vein) seemed to be responding to the movie/series as though it was all very real.
Which of course makes me laugh because this is a movie designed to separate 7.50 from your wallet. And all of you people did that. So they succeeded. Whether you liked the movie or not means nothing to them. They got your money. The smart thing would have been to stay home and refused to see a movie, that most of you said -- you knew was going to be bad in the first place --- but you went anyway and gave them your money and now you have buyers remorse and feel must lash out. And for as bad as you all thought the movie was, it made enough money to produce a sequel. (due out December 2007)
I caught this on TV, two nights ago. Wow what fun. (perhaps I should tell you I am 47 years, not a know-it-all tweener or twenty-something moron.) So I am easier to please. A remarkably well told tale of a alien-Olympics, where predators hunt down aliens for a right of passage. I remember when Aliens first came out I was 17, we loved it and we love anything connected with that mythos.
If you are not a self-appointed know-it-all, and you like aliens and 'hunt' movies you will like this for what it is, a b-grade stab at entertainment. And not an epic.
