Agreed with prime...... even the Action scence were so blurrly you could not really see what was happening. Should have saw collateral instead...

I liked it. I didn't expect it to be a great acadamy award winning film. there are alot of things that don't mesh (like aliens spawning from embryo to full growth in 20-30 min. and there were about twice as many aliens as there were possible host) but all in all, it's a great action flick if you like the other 6 movies (4 alien, 2 pred) and it leaves open how they can continue the alien movies after Resurection.

I do wish they would have used a predalien in it other than the last 20 sec. the preview showed a full grown one running on the temple. Also, I wish the preds would have been....a little tougher and used more of their equipment.

I think the DVD will show alot in deleted sceens. they edited a bunch from the movie to make it work. basically they rushed the film to fit it in this summer season.

lmao @ coqui, Yeah that open water looked kinda unsettling if you've ever been out on the briny away from land. But how much can you do with that movie? The budget must not have been much more than South Park's!!!

Ok, it will be a rental or HBO/Stars movie for me, after hearing the reviews and it dropping form 1st place to 4th or 5th in money. Money drop not a good sign.

I saw it and I would see it again. They did rush it but they did a good job with trying to tie all of the allien movies into the predator movies. If you watched something like HBO's inside look you would get alot more out of the movie. From just watching the movie you don't get the premise that the movie is based on a right of passage for the hunter breed of Predators. The reason the aliens kicked but to start was the humans took their guns but did you see what happened when the last one got his gun, ownage. Also I did think the woman and the predator made friends way to fast. If I were the predator I would have been pissed that they took our stuff and got my 2 friends killed. EOB is right to the queen alien is bad arse. They beat her a litle too easy and don't they realize that she's not dead, just like when she was in the temple when they freexe they hibernate so if hey ever get her off the ocean floor and warm her back up, WATCH OUT. All in all I love the Alien movies (Except the later ones that really suffered but the second one with the space marines is one of my favorite movies of all time. Hicks and Hudson made that movie. Quit being so picky, if you like action you'll like the movie. IMHO

You tell em Andy! it was a good movie, even though you could nick pick stuff about it (like if the aliens have acid for blood, how's the girl gonna stick her arm inside the aliens head and use it as a shield without getting the crap burned out of her arm.)

but it was a good action flick. but it would help if you had the backgound info on it.

An opinion is only as good as the observation behind it. This is why I didn't like the movie: SPOILERS IN HERE

1. Alien was Rated R. Predator was Rated R. You put them together and get PG-13? No.

2. Part of the premise behind the Alien movies was "The human race is DOOMED if the Aliens came to Earth." Surprise, Surprise! they're already here!

3. If the Predators come to our planet every 100 years (since the dawn of time or whatever BS they said) or so to hunt Aliens, don't you think they would have had a little trouble finding human hosts to incubate the Aliens with due to the fact that their "Sacred Rite of Passage Pyramid" was in FRIGGIN' ANTARCTICA? Apparently CONTINENTAL DRIFT PWNS PREDATOR INTELLIGENCE!

4. Weyland (Lance Henriksen/flamethrower loser) is supposedly the multi-billionaire that built Ash (the robot that betrays everyone) in the original Alien movie. And since this is a prequel, the original Alien movies haven't occured yet. HE'S FRIGGIN' DEAD! How do the robots get built?

5. I thought that Sanaa Lathan (the chick) was about to kiss the Predator when he took off his helmet and was mad when she didn't.

6. The Predator's wrist claw was too long. It made him look like a d**ch*b*g. Also, why did one of the Predator's wrist claws NOT melt when he stabbed the Alien? The other Predator's claw did.

7. No offense to you Andyconda, but saying "If you watched something like HBO's inside look..." is wrong. We, as viewers, should not have to go OUT OF OUR WAY to get information integral to the plot of a movie that WE JUST SAW. That is the DIRECTOR'S job to get that information across to us. Not doing so makes a crappy director. I, for one, try my best NOT to watch trailers so I can go into a movie and watch it with an unbiased perspective. Which is probably why I hated this movie so much.

8. The arial reverse spear to the face was pretty sweet, but not worth the $8 I payed for the movie (I had to pay for Bo Derek's ticket too).

9. The humans died too fast (and too "off screen"). Granted, they were basically Alien food since their introduction, but they all died within 15 minutes of each other!

10. Sanaa Lanthan was too much of a wuss in the first part to be taken seriously when she took the Predator's side to fight the Alien menace.

11. The Queen was defeated in a dumb way. Also, how were there Aliens in the "Sacred Temple" anyway (honestly, could someone answer that? I dozed through the first 15 minutes. That was the first time I EVER did that in a theatre.)? The Queen makes FACEHUGGERS not Aliens. Where were the humans to incubate them?

12. The whole "SLO-MOTION" jumps (I counted 3) and "SHAKY-CAM" fighting sequences are so played out. It annoys me almost as much as "WIRE-FU".

That's all I can think of at the moment. I might add some later (probably not though. Listing these problems just made me remember how crappy this movie is).
