Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

avp.jpg

Oh wow, uh. This movie was as bad as David Letterman is unfunny. I really expected this new AVP movie to kick some ass, and do something amazing with the new alien-predator hybrid, but it didn’t go anywhere. It started out wuth some dumb side plot of a father and son hunting, and then they get messed up by aliens. The actions scenes read poorly, and it’s often impossible to distinguish aliens, from the predator, and the alien-predator.Then some dumb pizza boy gets beat up over some chick, who gets sliced in half with some predator blades. Some army chick who has a daughter fires a gun a bunch of times and feels sad that her daughter doesn’t miss her.

They all witness people getting rolled by aliens, and then a lone predator walking over and cleaning up the mess with some dumb magic goo (doesn’t even make sense why, except where there was victims with little aliens in their chests).It was just stupid facts about characters presented randomly, and I was expecting some type of intricate plot to link them all together. All of the idiots with poorly established characters somehow get together in a gun shop and figure out all the aliens are hanging out in their town for some reason.

Before something awesome can begin to unfold from the already weak story, the army slaps an atomic bomb onto the town and everything goes black as the gun shop crew fly off in a chopper. They all survive and then some army general recovers a gun and looks off into the distance (yeah one of those “oh yay sequel” looks).

This movie sucked.

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆
