Watched Alien Vs.Predator:Requiem Featuring Steven Pasquale(Six Feet Under) as Dallas Howard. Reiko Aylesworth(Mr.Brooks) as Kelly O'Brien ,John Ortiz(American Gangster) as Eddie Morales .Sam Trammell(Cold Case) as Tim O'Brien .Kristen Hager(Beach Girls) as Jesse Salinger and Robert Joy(Land Of The Dead) as Colonel Stevens. I enjoyed The Predator & Alien Action Loved the Fights but I could care less about the Subplot not as good a characters just meant for the meat grinder An OK Sequel The Subplot Drags The Film . Amazing Production Design from Andrew Neskoromnmy(Dawn Of The Dead), Costume Design By Angus Strahie(Doom Runners) , Score by Brian Tyler(War),Cinematography By Daniel Pearl(Pathfinder) and Direction from The Brothers Strause(Nickelback:The Videos) An OK Sequel The Subplot Drags The Film 7/10

Gah, I can't even begin with how mind-numbingly terrible this movie is. I personally loved Alien vs Predator, but it's sequel is barely watchable. So the Predalien crash lands into Colorado where it starts to kill people. Then, an elder predator, Wolf, comes down to stop it. Sounds innocent enough, right? You have never been more wrong. The characters are all so unlikeable and annoying (just DIE already!!) it's not even funny, considering how they're all angsty teenagers. And before you pull the whole "well ALL teenage characters are unlikeable'', Freddy vs Jason and the Friday the 13th series had tons of good teen characters. There are so many Alien 3 and Aliens references it's not even funny anymore. Acting is subpar to the point where you can't even watch it. BUT THE LIGHTING IS UNDOUBTEDLY THE WORST. I CAN'T EVEN SEE ANYTHING COOL! All the awesome battle scenes are filmed in the pitch black. You can have good night battle scenes, as Pacific Rim shows us, but this is unacceptable. The Alien costumes are so bad-they're literally re-used from the film Aliens! From 1986! You can plainly see the suits falling apart throughout the film. It's awful. A huge middle finger to two of the most iconic sci-fi franchises of all time. Alien and Predator deserve better! I mean, Alien has gotten over it, but Predator is still recovering from the trauma! Overall a terrible film, just watch the new films Prometheus and Covenant and wait for Predator 4 to come out, far more worth your money than his heaping load of garbage.

A truly awful movie that commences the first part of the story line in a sewer in near pitch darkness and remains there, possibly for atmosphere but more likely to mask the deficiencies of the special effects meaning you will be squinting long before the end credits roll proudly and tell you all about the makers.There is nothing wrong with B Movies and working with new talent or on a limited budget but there is a lot wrong with being pretentious along with it. Skip this and watch the first movies, they are less obnoxious and far less tedious.

3 pointers – Things that could have been made great about Predators / Aliens / AVPR / Prometheus etc.Lets see the best parts or the Predator. 1. His designing. He looks and is great 2. His shoulder gun. Great 3. His wolverine claws. GreatLets see the best parts of the Alien 1. Designing. Great 2. Acid blood and terror factor. Great 3. Adaptability and intelligence. GreatWhat can go wrong?!So lets see the Predators bad parts. 1. No fun without his Ironman / batman gadgetry 2. Boring in hand to hand 3. Many goofs and problems in AVPR. Viz. unlimited blue liquid erasing evidence, aliens impregnating pregnant women (for what?)Now lets see Alien bad parts 1. Killing technique. Dude, something hard coming out of your mouth to kill is not GREAT 2. No more ninja technique in killing 3. Alienator / Predalien hybrid? Useless. In design, technique and utility.So what would have made these movies great
again? 1. Do away with the awful interludes of human interactions 2. Alienator / Predalien should have had been retrofitted with gadgets 3. Take out the human element. Or at least bring back a Dutch- like character! Someone not like the Rock or Schwartsnegger or the Pianist (Adrien Brooding ;) ), but like a combo of Kate Beckinsale, Uma Thurman, Scarlett Johansson, Milla Jovovich, Rhona Mitra, Michelle Yeoh, Michelle Rodriguez, Noomi Rapace (in no order of preference). You get the picture.So someone either listen to the above or get me in as special consultant. You don't need the name to make the money. Great movies will make money. Lets make Predator / Aliens / AVP / Prometheus / Covenant great again! I can definitely do it, but next time, don't fornicate it up
please.
