I was surprised about how smart this people thought people really is.
In the part of the leve and the needle spinning in the creeck or the sunset with worlds, and many others, people in the movie theatre kept asking around me what was going on, and what that ment.

Personally I am a fan of Aliens and Predators since they came on, thus I loved this movie, because it is like getting to know something else about that you love, but I really think this was not a great movie.

When I was sitting there I thanked I payed the ticket. If I saw it at home I would have probably fastforward it. Too slow at some moments.

Oh yeah. I didn’t like the final fight, I just couldn’t stop missing Arnold being kicked around in the original score. This had poor takes of the camera.

I keep wondering if it was necessary to introduce the new race of Predators, What do you think?

This may be a blasphemy to some, but I believe that once you take away the freshness of the original movie, Predators excels in many other areas. It obviously has a better dialogue, more interesting cast and more adept editing and cinematography.

I was really surprised to see this movie play out so well (even if some of the cliches of the genre, for instance Topher’s role, were bound to happen).
It was a good aliens vs. humans survival action flick, much in the spirit of Aliens.

Thanks for the review!

Great review! And I agree with you on just about every point. Flawed but very fun movie.

It is a lot of fun.
This film has a lot of nice touches. Fishburne’s entrance is great.
I love that Adrien Brody has done this and Splice in the same year. So cool.
Awesome review.
And thankfully it’s not in 3-D. So refreshing.
