    Alien vs. Predator: Requiem
    http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1090/...531fee6783.jpg

    Starring: Reiko Aylesworth, Steven Pasquale, John Ortiz, Shareeka Epps
    Directed By: The Brothers Strause, Colin Strause, Greg Strause
    Released By: Fox
    Theatrical Release Date: 12/25/2007

    Synopsis:
    The aliens (and a predator) have landed on planet Earth, and small-town America is about to become the scene of an epic interstellar showdown. As these two breeds of cosmic killers clash in the small-town streets Gunnison, CO, the locals are sent running for their lives. From the murky sewers to the rain-soaked streets, Gunnison has become a total bloodbath. Nowhere is safe, especially from the unstoppable new hybrid known as the "predalien." Now, as the once-quiet community of Gunnison is overrun by Aliens, the only hope for humankind is a fierce hunter from the deepest reaches of space. But this predator is far from a benevolent savior of the human race, because he'll kill any man, woman, or child who gets in the way of his mission to destroy every last alien under these stormy Colorado skies.

    Review:
    I had some high hopes for this movie, but it definitely didn't reach its full potential. The plot of the movie should have been centered more around the fight between the predators and aliens than the lives of the humans. A lot of the fight scenes were rather dark and made it less enjoyable than the first AVP. Some of the better qualities of the was the new 'species' that was introduces, the predalien. It pretty much kicks everyone's butt. I also liked how the movie wasn't predictable. You really never knew who was going to die and pretty much no one was spared. The movie wasn't horrible, but I probably won't watch it again. I'd say rent this movie if you're bored and want to see some blood and guts. Otherwise, stick to the first AVP.

    Critics Rating: 4/10
    My Rating: 4/10

    Yeah. I didn't enjoy it. And thanks to all the dark scenes, I didn't see what the "predalien" looked like.

    There's really no reason to insult anyone.
    All we said was that scenes were dark.

    I agree with you. This is where you state your opinion you dont have to slam anyone for stating what they think you have your opinion and other people have theres.

    I'm not slamming anybody, if I was insulting somebody, trust me. You'd know it. I'm just saying they must be blind. I could see perfectly, so guys must be blind to not be able to see it.

    Or maybe I just have really good vision?

    Why am I the only one who absolutely loves this movie?

    I think you should all see it, but prepare for something bad. I was expecting trash cuz of all the reviews, so when i watched it I was surprised. Same with RZ's Halloween

    I think it's different because I went in watching it with high expectations, and I was let down.
    You went in with low expectations and it was better than that.
    I wanted more out of the movie than I got.

    Well, everyone was like the movie sucks. So I was prepared for it to suck, but I still wanted it to be great. and it was, imo.
