...an utterly needless sequel that's sure to disappoint fans of both franchises...

REVIEWS FOR ALIENS VS. PREDATOR: REQUIEM (AVP 2)
Well, it's official: the Road to Hell is pretty much paved over ... the Strause Brothers ... expressed their [good] intention to return to the dark, scary tone of 1979's Alien, yet Requiem is just about as bad as its 2004 predecessor.
Jul 9, 2008
Too underlit to qualify as splatter, too bloodless to qualify as fun, too unaware of its own idiocy to be enjoyed Grindhouse-style, AvP:R is a real education in the finer stratifications of badness.

Does Alien vs. Predator: Requiem spell the end of the dual-monster franchise? Let's hope so
Mar 23, 2008
i want more aliens fewer people!
Feb 18, 2008
Well, there's not much to see here. And I mean that literally.
Feb 9, 2008
Un spectacle insipide, ennuyant à mourir et de très mauvais goût
Feb 5, 2008
I'm left wondering why I felt like I was watching two different movies that never quite came together as a parallel arc beyond the clunky "They're all fighting personal wars" motif...
Feb 5, 2008
Aliens vs. Predator - Requiem is literally shrouded in darkness, and the only explicable reason for this pitch-black visual schema is that the filmmakers understood it was better if no one could see the **** they were shooting.
Jan 20, 2008
With a spike in the gore quotient, hardcore fans left baying for Paul WS Anderson’s blood after the first AVP may be happy. Those interested in anything more than a barely comprehensible bitch-slap between two ill-treated icons should take a rain-check.
Jan 18, 2008
At best the movie's an unpretentious pile-up of B-movie clichés, but why "Requiem"? Time to give it a rest now.
Jan 18, 2008
The world's most illogical and boring action-horror grudge-match between two dull trademarked franchise monsters is back on.
Jan 18, 2008
A mindless distraction.
Jan 18, 2008
This feature directing debut from former visual effects men Colin and Greg is enjoyable enough in rudimentary tension/splatter/scrap terms, but it still doesn't live up to its heritage.
Jan 18, 2008
Fans deserve better.
Jan 18, 2008
Scriptwriter Shane Salerno’s dialogue is unspeakable, the visceral horror all too familiar, and the ideas distinctly second-hand.
Jan 18, 2008
An early but strong contender for worst movie of 2008.
Jan 18, 2008
...wastes no money on stars, no time on plot or character, and no lighting on the set...
Jan 17, 2008
Again, the Aliens are slapdash in their rampaging and the Predator is relatively moral, holding to strict rules of hunting.
Jan 17, 2008
... why not just film an intergalactic reality show where eager young predators can prove their worth for fabulous prizes by surviving 24 hours on the alien homeworld?
