| Fred's rating: 6/10 |
| Now going into this movie, I had slightly above average expectations. As did the Debater, who was with me. But the Jack and his "If it doesn't win an Oscar for cinematography it sucks" attitude entered the theatre with a horrible opinion of it. As you can see above it didn't get a very high number from me, which means it wasn't as good as I had hoped or expected. It was certainly no Aliens but I would put it about even with Alien 3 and Resurrection. The one thing I was really hoping for, a warlike atmosphere between the aliens and predators, was absent. In fact the only time it was witnessed was in flashback when a few predators were holding a horde of aliens at bay on top of a ziggurat. But it did have its saving graces....graces the the Jack chose to ignore.....the epic one on one battle. |

| These two have the absolute greatest tale of death and romance EVER! I shit you not. You must see it. I can say no more. The funny thing was....aliens are supposed to be the ones that win with numbers (based on Aliens and Resurrection). When they fight well armed foes, they win cause there are so many of them. But they faired better in the one on one fights than in the fights where they had the advantage. Oh yeah and the computerized queen alien looked like a T-Rex. 6 of 10. - Fred |
| Now this still ISN'T actually from the epic battle. In all there were three predators. This was the one that got OWNED real early on. But because it conveyed the message of the movie, it got used a lot for advertising. In fact, a super beast looking predator with more intricate armor and a slightly larger body than his....cousins? brothers? fellow predators? Whatever the fuck you call them. Your generic alien drone duked it out with this big ass predator. The only reason this occured was due to a plot device which denied the predator a specific weapon that would have made the fight moot. I won't say more because you just have to go watch because one: I don't wanna spoil it, two: it's too complex to describe briefly. Also, in what I think was the best part of the movie, what I have dubbed "The Greatest Love Story EVER Told" |
