Review of Aliens vs Predator: Requiem (2007) by Matt_Laxton — 27 Nov 2020

Aliens is one of my favorite movies, as is Predator I. This movie gets back to some of those basics. Predator 2, Alien Resurrection, and AVP were abominations which almost killed these movies. This one is surprisingly good. The action scenes were well done, the suspense was there. This was not a moronic gore flick, but a decent Aliens/predator movie. It does not live up to the originals of these series, but it comes a lot closer than AVP or Ressurrection. Maybe this movie will get them back on track.

This movie does borrow heavily from the first 2 aliens, and first predator. This is alright by me, because it makes the movie feel more like them. Now what we need is a new, original script to get aliens back on track, and then an original predator script. Lets hope it happens! If you are a fan of the original 3 Aliens, and the original predator, you will like this movie. If you liked resurrection or AVP, you will probably not like this movie.
