paul anderson vision of a movie do not go hand in hand with originality of an idea . mortal kombat be pretty good ( hat the pg 13 rating though ) . resident evil be just okay ( rat r but just do not have the feel ) . now and we get aliens vs. predator . ever since watch the alien and predator film from the 80 and 90 and i be expect something like this . also read the dark horse comic of these two rival foe be excite . but and this movie do not live up to the standard of the previous film or the comic . i admit though and some element do take place and but couldn not make up for the movie a a whole . so and what do we get . a simmer down version of our two favorite slap with a pg 13. fox should be ashamed . the movie have a cheap and rush feel to it . both franchise weren not do justice . where be the marine . what happen to the fight on the other planet . this movie need more time and possibly another director ( james cameron or ridley scott perhaps ) . i be not go to comment on the act that much because this isn not a movie where dialog be superior to anything else in the movie . the two that really stand out be sanaa lathan and big bos hogg lance henriksen ( still go . ) . sanaa have strong standing to become a great actress . i wish her success in the future . some of the dialog in the movie be laughably cheesy and unnecessary . raoul bova do alright too and but the rest of the cast be just there for the alien and predator kill satisfaction . the cg effect in the movie be good and do not throw the movie off at all . a a matter of fact and cg and some of the fight sequence save the movie from be a big disgrace to the fan . the predator cloaking be great and and their weapon look more updated from the previous two predator movie . the editing be horrible though . every time an alien or one of the predator kill the scene be cut and and i mean cut . for those who haven not see the movie and you will understand why a r rating need to take place . a fight scene that take place in a chamber and between a predator and an alien and be badly edit . the camera be too shaky and and the lighting be displace . also and the slow motion b be annoy . besides the flaw and some satisfaction come out of the sequence . important represent the predator should have be portray a be more agile and versatile in combat . the alien should never get the upper hand unless the predator be outnumber or wound ( read the dark horse comic or watch the previous movie . ) . overall and this be soak down to just a decent popcorn flick . i hope that the dvd will acquire a r rating and add more valuable scene to the movie . the theatrical version just doesn not cut . i want to see this more than spider man . paul anderson and company ( fox . aargh . ) let me down and also lose respect from me . hope the sequel take another turn ( also possibly another director ) and give the fan a movie that we deserve . final judgement represent or .
