Movie Info
Directed by Paul W.S. Anderson, Alien vs. Predator follows billionaire Charles Bishop Weyland (Lance Henriksen) and his team of drillers, scientists, and archaeologists, to an obscure pyramid site in Antarctica. Among the icy ruins, allegedly, lies the proof of an empire predating humankind. Once there, however, the group finds more than ancient sarcophaguses and hieroglyphics; rather, their discovery consists of dismembered human skeletons and fossilized remains of the alien creatures that

The title alone betrays an entire Hollywood mindset of rehash, reheat, recombine. Re-please.
Top CriticTo ingest Alien vs. Predator on its own slimy, divertingly synthetic terms, it helps to forget everything previously known -- and loved -- about the franchise monster aliens who get star billing.
Expensive claptrap.
Perfunctory battle sequences, cardboard characters, and uncreative scare 'ems.
The film equivalent of a deep-fried Mars bar: an interesting combination that results in a gloppy mess.
AVP will probably satisfy its fans' most basic desires. But, like most sugar rushes, it won't satisfy them for long.
Lance Henriksen, Raoul Bouva and Ewen Bremner are tragically underused due to their characters being cliched and forgettable.
I spent a good portion of the time thinking about what could have been...
This spectacle-fueled Sci-Fi thriller is all bark and no bite.
un divertissement estival parmi tant d'autre qui n'a absolument rien de mythique n'est pas pour autant désagréable si on le prend pour ce qu'il est
It's exactly what you would expect it to be, as long as you don't expect too much.
lance is the man
The special effects are great, the battles are big-time, and the dialogue isn't as awful as it sometimes gets in films like this.
In the end, we are left with a dull woman who is surrounded by puppets and voiceless actors covered in prosthetics -- and it's never a good sign when the special effects give more memorable performances than the hero.
Sadly devoid of any real thrills.
If you're looking for the type of R-rated action that flowed freely in every other film in either franchise, you will be sorely disappointed.
The extra few minutes of playing time in the movie do, indeed, improve it marginally, but not to such an extent that I would be willing to change my initial film rating.
