    OK, if you see the cinema version this is kinda lame but if you get the US uncut DVD its much better.

    It's not Starship Troopers in terms of best guilty pleasure, but I have fun watching this movie...and I'm for Predator all the way.

    A disgraceful waste of time.

    Paul W. S. Anderson is a damn hack. That makes it deeply annoying that I quite enjoyed this film. The action sequences are actually pretty damn good; the scene when a predator fights toe to toe with an alien is worth 3 stars on it's own. Unfortunately, the rest of the film just d... ...( read more )

Unsurprisingly mediocre. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

Take a wretched premise. Imagine the worst picture that could be made from it. Then imagine something even worse. full review

Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail

In the battle of the ugly syrup creatures with teeth, can anyone really be declared a winner? full review

Ty Burr, Boston Globe

A movie based on a video game based on two entirely separate sci-fi horror series -- so whatever was interesting in the originals has long been bred out, like double-jointedness. full review

David Edelstein, Slate

Anderson is terrible at giving us our bearings; and he's the only franchise director who fails to generate even a drop of empathy for screaming people who have aliens erupting from their chests. full review

    This movie is ok, but they realy messed up with the predator's, the aliens don't quite look right either. AVP Requiem is much better but the original movies of both Aliens and Predator ACE all over AVP 1.

    This Movie Should Of Been Ace But It Is Shite. An Alien/Predator Movie Should Have Been An 18 Rating. Should Be Violent Like The Other Alien & Predator Movies.
    Predators Kick The Crap Out Of Aliens So Why Did Some Die So Early In The Film.They Made This A PG 13 Why ? So More People Can Go Watch It So The Movie Will Make More Money.If They Make A 2nd 1 It Will Prob Be Shit Like This 1 Anyway.
