Customer Reviews
BOOOO!! 4.5 OUT OF 10
I liked the first AVP movie, but it was ultimately lackluster. However, AVP: Requiem is bad altogether. There are just some scenes that should never even be included in a film of its nature.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT: When a ship belonging to the Predator aliens crashes in Colorado because a legion of aliens kills all the crew members, the aliens get out and start killing people. So a lone Predator comes to Earth to destroy the aliens and prevent them from spreading. The story also revolves around a group of survivors who are determined to escape from the city.
MUSIC: This one part of the movie that is good. One of the main highlights in an overall bad experience.
STORY: The plot is paper-thin and riddled with holes. You won't even know who most of the characters names. Most of the time you'll be going, "Wait, who the hell are you?," because of how poorly assembled the plot is. I was only able to memorize the name of the waitress who got killed within forty minutes of the movie.
ENTERTAINMENT: At first it seems the movie is going to be awesome... until the teen drama steps in and ruins it. When this began to happen I was left going, "Oh God no." Also, the dialogue is bad which makes the story go to waste even more. This is one of those Ha Ha Stupid movies. Also, you may have trouble trying to see this movie because some parts are just too dark to see. I didn't have this problem most of the time, but a lot of people sure did. This movie has some cool action moments, but they all face-plant because of too many poorly implemented character progressions and storyline.
GORE: Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad which is disappointing.
OVERALL: Bad. This movie wasted nearly all of its potential with bad storytelling, absurd dialogue, and overall stupid characters (Surely bullet-proof vests will save us!).
THE GOOD: Some cool action moments, some nasty gore, and plenty of Ha Ha Stupid moments.
THE BAD: Too dark to see sometimes, bad storytelling, lame characters, and too many Ha Ha Stupid moments.

avpr review
This is a pretty good film.
I am glad that the Predator is skinnier, and the Aliens finally have the ridged heads. The Predalien is awesome.
Most of the alien scenes are made with CGI, so they sometimes look fake. The creators chose dark lighting to make the movie seem scarier, but all it did was make it hard to see what was going on. You can bearly see the Predalien most of the time.
The beginning, where the Predalien Chestburster comes out looks really bad, compared to AVP. It looks like they put a worm coming out of a Predator. Also, Wolf Predator knew about the Predalien, and Facehuggers, so I think more than one Predator would be sent to kill or capture it. Any way, Wolf was sent to Earth to kill the Aliens, so he wouldn't be killing and skinning Humans, so that doesn't make any sense. They also made the Facehugger acid blood too strong in the beginning, in the original Alien series, the acid could not burn a persons arm off. But in the end, they didn't make the Predalien's acid blood strong enough, The Predator ripped the small jaw out of the Predaliens mouth and a whole lot of acid squirted out, but it didn't burn up the Predator. Oh, and also, the Predator carries this blueish liquid around, that he never runs out of, and it dissolves everything, so the Humans can't find anything, to me, thats stupid.
OK, I'm going on to the good parts. The Aliens and Predator look a lot better than in AVP, and the ending battle is great. The Predator is awesome, because it has 2 Plasma Casters, and now has trip mines. It also has 2 Shuriken Discs, and a whip, that chopps up Aliens. The part whre the Predalien and Aliens take over the hospital is good, and it has the goo on the walls like in the movie, Aliens. The Predator also has wrist blades like the original, which is better.
This movie is pretty good, except for the bad parts listed above.

Aliens vs. Predator - Requiem (Two-Disc Special Edition with Digital Copy)
Love this movie, it is better than the "R" rated version from the theaters, unless they changed it when they put it on DVD. This one adds parts and changes one spot which makes more sence. The only thing we found bad was a hesitation in the movie, we got 3 -4 different copies sent to us and they all do it, company says they don't do it but we didn't find one that didn't. The Aliens vs. Predator - Requiem (Unrated Edition) does it too, we ended up with 2 copies of that one in the end since we didn't need the digital copy, which is for the computer or to put on an ipod or somethiing. The hesitation isn't a big deal but would be nice if it wasn't on it. Great movie .

Awesome!!!
I always want it a movie with and alien on earth and without super weapons, when the first AVP movie came out i didn't love the pyramid thing, but in this one, ufff, for me is the best alien movie ever!!!

AVP sequel not so great
I was really disappointed in the direction this sequel went. There was absolutely no scare factor that Aliens is known for. Nothing new that you didn't already know about Predators.
If you remember from the last movie, at the end, an alien spawn burst out of a deceased Predator. Thus, an alien/Predator hybrid and made its way to Earth and attacking on humanity. Another Predator investigates and learns of a hybrid and takes off to hunt it down.
That pretty much it. Humans are just in the way of the hybrid and the Predator is doing its best to track it down and kill it.
Like I said, no scare factor. No build-up of suspense. The whole thing just felt rushed. Just plain disappointing.
