At the time of writing the critics of Rotten Tomatoes have given it an aggregated score of 12%. It cannot be said of Alien vs Predator: Requiem.
The same came be said of Alien vs Predator to a large extent.
It is simply as if the relevant executives at Fox saw where their combined film series was headed and simply broke it up before too much damage was done.Īlien³ and Alien Resurrection both came out on the receiving end of fairly harsh criticism, but at the same time both had their respective fans. It was not a matter of money: Alien vs Predator: Requiem turned a reasonable profit. After one sequel directed by visual effects specialists Colin and Greg Strause Alien vs Predator was stone-cold dead, with each property splitting back off into its respective franchise. Anderson directed Alien vs Predator and earned 20th Century Fox a tidy profit, it seemed as if the studio had a pulp B-grade movie franchise on its hands. For the unsuspecting humans in Gunnison, Colorado, it means a long night of violence and terror as they run around like panicky kittens trying to survive.Īfter Paul W.S. When a number of facehuggers emerge from the wreckage and begin impregnating the humans, another Predator arrives to clean up the mess. I guess this is the weakest link in the series overall, but I still liked most of it.After an alien bursts from the chest of a dead Predator, its spacecraft crashes into the woods outside a small American town. I think the first AVP was better simply because the aliens were more bad ass than here, where they are less intimidating and are too easily dispatched. The Predalien was a brilliant idea, but I'm not sure I ever got a good look at it. A little more fleshing out ( no pun intended) of the characters and some lighting adjustments would have helped. It's also the shortest movie of either series. They now had that R-rating and were going for it! It's all edited in a way to confuse the viewer, the action moves too quickly at times. This is one of the cruelest entries in either series if you consider some of the victims here. It's not a terrible movie (sorry, I just love these movies) but the characters are very lacking in depth, and are never given any time to develop prior to being gouged or dismembered. There's a rapid succession of gory deaths, but the decision to film everything in darkness means we can almost never see anything too clearly. This sequel to the original AVP ups the ante by going for that R-rating.
