i didnt hate it - i didnt love it ...

it wasnt as well structured or fun as any of the alien or predator films ... and i found it hard to readjust my expectations as i'm a big fan of both those franchises (i like all 6 films)

I thought AVP felt rushed and lazy ..

there were some things i liked about it - the creature effects were up to par ... but the cast was weak and the story was goofy.

the only reason this thing took place under the ice is because they obviously didnt have the budget to do the jungle or the streets again....

All in all it just didnt have the impact any of the alien or predator films had - and considering this was a combination of the 2 franchises - expectations were high - and not met.


i think the worst crime was in the casting. Every single alien and predator film to this point had a strong stellar cast.

this was not the case in AVP ... just a bunch of pretty kids ... it might as well just had been a cheap slasher film.
