...and by the way, Mr. Anderson...

Rating: 1/10 (12 August 2004)

It's the PREDATOR that's one ugly motherf*ck*er, not the Alien!
I'm dropping my rating from a 3 (for reasonably decent effects) to a 2 just because I hate films that have no respect for their own fetchin's!
Since I have to provide at least 10 lines in my comment, I'll fill them with further vitreol directed against film makers who do films that have less plot than "Castle Wolfenstein" (or whatever is the name of that video game in which one's POV character runs around a castle and shoots Nazis) and more feeble character inception, interaction and development than that of a Super Mario Brothers game.
Oh, right. Someone actually made a movie out of that. Was that you, Mr. Anderson...
No, no of course not.
So, herewith is the vitreol: A pox upon this film. May it fail miserably at the box office. May you be made to attend at least some remedial screen writing classes before being given another budget and a franchise to muck up!
May you...
Is that it? Have I used my ten lines?
Good. Enough about this film. But yet not. AGAIN: Do NOT pay to see it! It'll just encourage them. I fear others of this ilk are lurking in the unplumbed backstories of this thing.
