Badass! (spoilers galore! Becaue I don’t feel like tiptoeing around the plot, and there is no plot anyway, it’s an Alien vs. Predator movie!)
Predator and Aliens were two of the greatest movies ever made. And bringing them together could become one of the greatest movies ever, or a major disaster. This premise was already brought together a long time ago in comic books. The story was the Predators created the Aliens so that the Predators could kick some butt. This is basically the same story in the movie with some twists. And what’s the result? Utter mayhem. Paul Anderson has been categorized as one of the worst directors ever. And I have to agree, he was. But this movie absolutely redeems him. Yes, he may have been fortunate to stumble upon a fun plot, but so what, luck has everything to do with it sometimes.
Anyway, so what’s the story, Predators have to kick some Alien butt, and humans get in the way. So what? Haha! That’s the plot. The whole fun of the movie is watching Aliens and Predators kick each other’s asses. It’s a geek’s non-sexual wet dream. I creamed myself watching the movie. Haha! There is a badass black chick who gives Ripley a run for her money. She’s no Ripley, but she’s badass.
Ok, this review has no point. I just keep on saying that Alien vs. Predator was badass. So what. It was badass! I love it. I think I’ll watch it again. I’m glad Paul Anderson made this movie, and it deserves all the money it gets.
Badass!
