Visual effects specialists Greg and Colin Strause both make their feature directorial debut with this no-holds-barred monster mash that attempts to set itself apart from the 2004 Paul W.S. Anderson original by serving as a straight-up sci-fi horror scarefest. The aliens (and a predator) have landed… More

Critic Reviews

  • Chris Nashawaty, Entertainment Weekly

    Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem is a B movie that truly earns its B.

  • James Berardinelli, ReelViews

    Ho, ho, ho -- the joke's on anyone who pays to see this.

  • Joe Leydon, Variety

    Occasionally, the filmmakers reveal a cheeky willingness to upend genre conventions, particularly when bending the rules regarding who lives and who dies in this sort of pic.

  • Neil Genzlinger, New York Times

    It may not be classic sci-fi like the original Alien, which it has in its DNA, but it's a perfectly respectable next step in the series.

  • Mark Olsen, Los Angeles Times

    The action is rendered with such disconcertingly low light levels -- and of course there is heavy rain for the climatic sequences -- that it can be a strain to simply see what is occurring on-screen. Then again, maybe that's for the best.

    Possibly good action movie and gorefest was hammpered by poor acting and one of the worst visually shot films in decades. Way too dark and almost impossible to make anything out.

    AVP 2 continues directly from the ending of the first film, with an alien/predator hybrid causing the ship to crash land back on Earth. A second ship is dispatched containing a kind of space-age alien cross between a CSI and Batman to clear up the resulting mess. The first film was… More

    I'll credit Requiem for bringing the much needed gore that Alien vs. Predator didn't deliver. But yes, it is pretty much the first film again and basically a very disorienting dull film otherwise anyway. Two rights have made a wrong yet again.

  • Phil H


    OK OK now I'm the biggest fudging Predator fan around and I have been waiting for this baby. The first 'AvP' was a horrible disappointment but can I say this is a better film? somewhat, even though it still pales in comparison to the classic originals. Right..the… More
