Requiem clearly picks up exactly where AVP left off, taking place in what appears to either be the same day as AVP, or a day later at worst, yet AVP is set in 2004, since that's 100 years after 1904, while Requiem, is set a whole year later. I just enjoy seeing all these holes, in an installment that is part of a franchise/series that's really all just blotches, being sewn together into a patch blanket held together by well, tape.I can only imagine how terrible an experience it must've been watching this movie in a cinema, since over half of it is set in the dead of night, and not only that, but also, The Brothers Strause and/or Shane Salerno saw it fit to make an already badly lit setting, be further darkened, annoyingly so, than it already was by causing a citywide power outage. The sense in that, is about as logical as, a shot in the dark.However, in the interest of fairness, perhaps the angle The Brothers Strause were going with was, since these two foreign organisms are now fighting above ground, them causing explosions at a power plant draws absolutely no attention to them, at least for that while longer. But, it's still stupid.Also, these Predators have thermal vision, so how is it that they missed the alien inside the predator at the end of AVP? This is more of a Requiem issue than AVP, because Requiem bases its entire plot, or lack thereof, around that outcome.Look, what I'm trying to say is, this movie sucks, it's the worst of the bunch, terribly uninspired and so forgettable, you forget it with every passing scene. Creating the two possible outcomes, with one team going one way, and the other, going another, is the most "artistic" part of this film. 3.4/10.

Reiko Aylesworth(Mr.Brooks) as Kelly O'Brien ,John Ortiz(American Gangster) as Eddie Morales .Sam Trammell(Cold Case) as Tim O'Brien .Kristen Hager(Beach Girls) as Jesse Salinger and Robert Joy(Land Of The Dead) as Colonel Stevens. I enjoyed The Predator & Alien Action Loved the Fights but I could care less about the Subplot not as good a characters just meant for the meat grinder An OK Sequel The Subplot Drags The Film . Amazing Production Design from Andrew Neskoromnmy(Dawn Of The Dead), Costume Design By Angus Strahie(Doom Runners) , Score by Brian Tyler(War),Cinematography By Daniel Pearl(Pathfinder) and Direction from The Brothers Strause(Nickelback:The Videos) An OK Sequel The Subplot Drags The Film 7/10

Gah, I can't even begin with how mind-numbingly terrible this movie is. I personally loved Alien vs Predator, but it's sequel is barely watchable. So the Predalien crash lands into Colorado where it starts to kill people. Then, an elder predator, Wolf, comes down to stop it. Sounds innocent enough, right? You have never been more wrong. The characters are all so unlikeable and annoying (just DIE already!!) it's not even funny, considering how they're all angsty teenagers. And before you pull the whole "well ALL teenage characters are unlikeable'', Freddy vs Jason and the Friday the 13th series had tons of good teen characters. There are so many Alien 3 and Aliens references it's not even funny anymore. Acting is subpar to the point where you can't even watch it. BUT THE LIGHTING IS UNDOUBTEDLY THE WORST. I CAN'T EVEN SEE ANYTHING COOL! All the awesome battle scenes are filmed in the pitch black. You can have good night battle scenes, as Pacific Rim shows us, but this is unacceptable. The Alien costumes are so bad-they're literally re-used from the film Aliens! From 1986! You can plainly see the suits falling apart throughout the film. It's awful. A huge middle finger to two of the most iconic sci-fi franchises of all time. Alien and Predator deserve better! I mean, Alien has gotten over it, but Predator is still recovering from the trauma! Overall a terrible film, just watch the new films Prometheus and Covenant and wait for Predator 4 to come out, far more worth your money than his heaping load of garbage.

If you compare AVP Requiem to the former Aliens and Predators movies, yes, this movie is behind them. This movie is like an (expensive) B movie. Beside, AVP Requiem doesn't take place in giant futuristic spaceship or underground secret temple, but only in a simple small town neighborhood. This thing make this movie has different feel and atmosphere from its former movies. I found AVP Requiem is more similar to old-school monster movies like Tremor, Arachnophobia, Python, Ghostbusters, and Night of Living Dead. I think because of this "disconnection", many people (especially Aliens and Predators fans) very disappointed and decided to give a very low rating. Yes, I can understand that, BUT, if you're not comparing this movie with its former, AVP Requiem actually is a very good B movie. This movie is so exciting, the effects are good, the actings are okay, the quality is not crappy, so enjoyable to watch, so deserve more than just 4,7 stars. If you haven't watch it yet, I say give it a chance first, maybe you'll turn out to love it!
