AVPR: एलियन vs प्रेडेटर - रेक्विएम

Well either way I sure am not staring at this atrocious film. Or am I? Well, being a fanboy of the original films and seeing the trailer for this flick thinking, "Is this for real? Am I actually seeing an Alien Vs. Predator film that takes it to the streets. The answer is yes. But these would be the streets of the most run down ghetto slum that exists. The film has some decent acting from the cop and the army chick but beside that wow... the younger brother was trying to be a stud but failed miserably. The "hot chick" says about 2 lines that aren't very convincing and trust me... she gets what she deserves. The bully is just a dumb brute. And the older brother, don't get me started on that guy. He was like a fonz-meets Easy Rider type guy and he was just junk. My favorite character would have to be the pizza hut guy who says "screw saving the women and children this isn't titanic" That is absolutely hilarious. The fight scenes are good between the monsters but the build up is way too long. The movie in a nutshell is basically... oh someone dies, lets check it out... oh someone dies, lets check it out. It's monotonous to say the least. During the final chaos scenes in the city the film does get better and some of the scenery is fantastic. Because I am easily amused, I'll give a 6 out of 10. Well, I take that back. That Titanic line was pretty funny. I'll give it a 7 out of 10. But to an average viewer, I suggest putting some thought into your moral standards before seeing this flick. Acting -5/10 Story 4/10 Action 7/10 Titanic Line and Swimming Scene 10/10 Overall 7/10

I was only fourteen when I first saw the Alien movies and I immediately came to like it. Original, terrifying and classic. Sigourney Weaver was the perfect choice for the female hero character and she would have deserved a statuette for her act. In 1979 something everlasting was born than the immortal series continued with a nothing less legendary movie than the first. Alien3 was a different point of view but I think this part was the most stressful and unique of all, this was my favourite. Unfortunately the last one was a failure in many ways. It was strained, illogical with full of meaningless massacres. I didn't like it at all, but I never thought that a worse part would ever be made in the future. Well as it turned out in 2004 I was wrong. Alien vs. Predator was a bad break, and it should have been directed by a more talented director or should have never been made at all. But when I saw Alien vs Predator Requiem I was totally shocked moreover devastated. When I sat down and decided to watch it with full of doubt, even than I had never thought that such a bad movie could be made. Without a screenplay, without a director and without actors I don't understand how can a film be made. Because this film misses these three terms. What you get is a nice massacre show without a story but with a lot of annoying and boring dialogues. Waste of money and waste of time. This movie is rather impudence, than honor to the fans of the both sides (Alien/Predator). Shame!

I was so excited when I heard that finally this movie was coming to the theaters because I really liked the first AVP. But it was the worst movie ever of the alien and predator history, including the separate ones...it was so bad that 1 month ago on the internet released a fan movie called "alien vs hunter" I think something like that...it was a "b" movie...I can tell you this that I enjoyed more the fake "b" movie than the original AVPR. Its a shame that they destroyed a movie and the concept of it and I really hope the director of this movie also the lame writer to never get a real job ever in the movies industry...Im wondering if they are proud of the job they did?...because I feel disgraced of watching this crap...get a real job gentlemen..and leave the writing and directing to the professionals. It was so dark all the time you couldn't see anything..r it was supposed to imagine what was happening? The fight scenes?...I've seen so much better on TV series like Babylon 5 or something and the pred-alien? I still don't remember how it looked like. Honestly I really wish that the people who worked in this movie never get a job again because they just destroyed a LEGEND. Waste of money,waste of time.

Gleefully silly continuation of the events in "Alien vs. Predator" shows what happens as the truly monstrous "PredAlien" (veteran effects expert and creature performer Tom Woodruff Jr.) and numerous other Xenomorphs run amok in a remote Colorado town. While a great many of the local citizens are victimized, a select few come together and struggle to make it to safety. Meanwhile, a solitary Predator (Ian Whyte) comes to town to handle the infestation in its own way.

This movie is basically to its predecessor what "Aliens" was to "Alien", as it concentrates first and foremost on action and pace. Most of the human characters are not worth your time, although it's wonderful to see '24' babe Reiko Aylesworth as an ass kicking Ripley type character, a soldier just returned from Iraq. A fair amount of the dialogue is pretty bad, as well. But there is entertainment value for some viewers, provided that they can just put their brains in neutral. There's tons of violence - granted, there's the expected use of modern digital gore. The most interesting aspect for some in the audience will be the take no prisoners approach utilized by screenwriter Shane Salerno and directors Colin & Greg Strause. They pretty much treat the scenario as open season on many of the characters - including children. This will either delight or disgust viewers. The unqualified highlight - or absolute low point, depending on ones' sensibilities - is the ultra creepy maternity ward sequence.

This viewer's not ashamed to admit that he digs this entry a fair bit, although he can understand why people would be inclined to dislike it. Certainly, the major bone of contention for a lot of people is cinematographer Daniel Pearls' (the original "Texas Chain Saw Massacre") very minimalist lighting.

Six out of 10.

What will it take to convince the idiots running the major Hollywood studios when to push the stop button? It's a strange time we're living in where even critically panned films are being warranted sequels now as the aim definitely seems to be making more franchises than stand- alone films & grab as much cash as possible by building on the (financial) success of the original.

Continuing the crossover of Alien & Predator series, Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (also known as AVP:R) begins right where the first film of this newly established franchise signed off. Set in Gunnison Country where a Predator spaceship carrying a hybrid alien crashes, the film continues the war between the two iconic-but-now-turned-idiotic species with stupid humans caught in between.

Terribly directed by Brothers Strause, the movie marks a new low for any cinema that has featured either creatures so far and is an absolute trash from start to finish. Horribly written, badly photographed, tediously edited & full of dull characters (this time including the two creatures as well), there isn't one thing worth liking in this garbage throughout its runtime.

On an overall scale, continuing the recent tradition of making a mockery of all cinema classics by sequels, prequels, remakes, reboots or spin-offs, Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem is one of the most boring orgy of mindless violence whose only improvement over its already pathetic predecessor comes in its upgrade from PG-13 to R-Rated. Needs to be buried alive with whoever green- lighted it.
