Alien vs Predator

ALIEN VS PREDATOR. 2004

Director: Paul W.S. Anderson

Reviewed by Paghat the Ratgirl



I'd read some killer reviews & was expecting this to be pretty bad, but thought I'd like it anyway because no matter how dumb it got, I was gonna love seeing Aliens & Predators going all Wrestlemania.

But by gum, I think it was actually a pretty darned good film with as much credibility & character as the premise could possibly achieve. The human characters are mostly so stupid that it didn't bother me they all got wasted, but other than the stupid-human factor, it struck me as an exciting well done film.

The designs for the interiors of the pyramid beneath Antartica were just so beautifully gothic. The narrow morality of the predators is still a type of morality, which gave the film something more than the expected mindless action. The alliance against the aliens that develops between one of the predators & a human female was just the right touch.
