However, unfortunately actors Carsten Norgaard as Rusten Quinn and Tommy Flanagan as Mark Verheiden disappear far too early. The ever-improving Uwe Boll he is not! The strong leads include Sanaa Lathan as the heroine and Raoul Bova. I haven't seen a bad film that he's made and I'm not sure why there is such a geek gang hatred against the mans work.

Anderson is successful in bringing the franchises together, respecting ideas from both Alien and Predator movies. It has the feeling of an Alien film, a great premise, good cinematography, some amazing effects and a fine score. Predator was more so unjustly panned by critics and fans due to the hype and anticipation. However, the pyramid is a hunting ground for Predators who kill Aliens as a rite of passage and the team find themselves caught in the middle of their hunt. My vote: 6.5 out of 10.Ī team assembled by a billionaire investigate a heat signal that reveals a pyramid below the surface of a whaling station in Antarctic. So if you can get past the silly characters and you're able to ignore the more obvious shortcomings (like the idiotic decision to make the film PG-13) you're in for a fun ride.

Whoever designed those really scored and seems to have a great love for the art of Giger and the previous films. But despite all those flaws I have to admit I enjoyed the movie from start to finish - because of the amazing set- and creature-design and the more than decent action sequences and special effects. It's hard to take characters or a story seriously when nearly every sentence spoken resembles lines from a parody of cheap science-fiction and horror movies from the fifties and sixties. When I watched it yesterday I got angry at times because some of the dialogue - well, most of it, actually - is truly awful.

I completely understand why this movie got such terrible reviews after all, it marked the first 'let's make a quick buck' entry in the two beloved Alien and Predator franchises and was done by a director who many felt didn't treat the material with the respect it deserved. Just watched it again yesterday - it's striking how good the action is compared to the ridiculous dialogue.
