Alien vs. Predator

ALIEN VS. PREDATOR (2004) - August 18, 2004
A stupid movie. For a movie called "Alien vs. Predator" the aliens and the predators didn't fight nearly as much as you'd think they would (which is too bad, because the scenes where they do fight are probably the highlight of the movie). Plus the movie spends way too long setting everything up. Which wouldn't have been a problem, except for the fact that there wasn't a single decent character in the whole movie. I felt like Milhouse during that episode of Itchy and Scratchy with Poochie in it. "When are they going to get to the fireworks factory??" The action scenes were all incoherent and the violence was ultra toned down, which made all the stuff with the humans being hunted pretty pointless. Plus that crazy alliance between the predator and the human was just bizarre (there's just something wrong about a shot where a predator and a human run side by side away from an explosion). *1/2
