Not yet, saw preview of it on TV, seem to be based on the same kind of alien as in the Original Predator Movie with Arnold Swartzeneger.....looks interesting though....;):cool:

Mmm, didn't really catch my attention. It was good action, terrible plot, but in the end, you go to a predator movie for the tension, and I think it missed the point there. I think I'd score it a 6/10.

Just watched it - four letter description which describes brown and smelly. A group of people para into a planet, none with any military training. The main character is freefalling and doesn't have a clue how to stablise his body. They are dressed in a mixture of semi-military uniform to some geezer in a three piece civvy suit, plus someone in a discarded Gitmo Bay prisoner jumpsuit.

One of them, armed with a manheld mini gun, open fires on his colleagues, on full auto - no short service bursts here. That's the best part of it, the rest - yeuk!

It looks like a French movie designed for the Indonesian market, the low end of it.

Marks out of ten - zero!

Agreed!

Terrible compared to the original two movies.

This movie is so low on my to watch list...that dispite my free ticket I still have not seen it. AvP pretty much ruined my desire for these movies. IMO Alien, Aliens, Alien Resurrection, & Predator are classics....Predator 2 was ok and made it to my Bluray collection @10$, but I wouldn't pay full price for it. I may get the AvP movies on Bluray if I find them for $10 also, otherwise they can rot on the store shelves. The only other movie series I have been more dissapointed in would be the remaking of the original Star Wars Trilogy--which will again be re-editted before bluray release(sigh).

My biggest complaint with the first Alien vs Predator was the human actors.
Here they were on a remote, frozen island with temps way below zero, running around, getting killed and NOT A SINGLE FROSTED BREATH from anyone, anywhere, at any time.:mad:
I know it's filmed on a studio lot but they shoulf have turned down the A/C !
