May 28, 2008Possibly good action movie and gorefest was hammpered by poor acting and one of the worst visually shot films in decades. Way too dark and almost impossible to make anything out.

March 23, 2012Well shock horror enough instalment and i think they have milked this franchise far too much! Its enjoyable enough to a point but when there is no new story then someone should say 'loook shall we actually make another' quite frankly if you've any and i mean any of the previous A... read more

March 8, 2012AVP 2 continues directly from the ending of the first film, with an alien/predator hybrid causing the ship to crash land back on Earth. A second ship is dispatched containing a kind of space-age alien cross between a CSI and Batman to clear up the resulting mess. The first film w... read more

November 2, 2011I'll credit Requiem for bringing the much needed gore that Alien vs. Predator didn't deliver. But yes, it is pretty much the first film again and basically a very disorienting dull film otherwise anyway. Two rights have made a wrong yet again.

October 12, 2011OK OK now I'm the biggest fudging Predator fan around and I have been waiting for this baby. The first 'AvP' was a horrible disappointment but can I say this is a better film? somewhat, even though it still pales in comparison to the classic originals.
Right..the predalien is so... read more -
September 10, 2011REQUIEM is considerably better than the original AVP movie, now with a well-deserved R rating, but this is still a pretty awful waste of time. (Note: I'm glad they name they characters and I didn't have to research their names.)
-
September 9, 2011Better than the first but still sucked. The storyline was more interesting than the first but it was still very boring. The cast was dull and uninteresting. The action and special effects were nothing great, or at least I thought so. This is a terrible movie but a better sequel.
-
August 22, 2011This film had the potential to be good, stupid, bloody fun, but unbearable and incomprehensible cinematography and lighting killed it. Skip this technical mess.
-
February 23, 2011Well, the first AVP film had a somewhat passable story, it just failed to deliver the goods in terms of great action and, most importantly, violence. Thjis film on the other hand, has no real story, no real context for why the shit that happens happens, but it gets the grade I'm ... read more

January 11, 2011The DVD should have come with nightvision goggles... couldn't see a fuckin' thing!! The first AvP was criticized for lack of gore and violence, the makers of this one promised some but didn't tell us that you needed Owl retinas capable of detecting it. It was action-packed for th... read more

Ho, ho, ho -- the joke's on anyone who pays to see this. Full Review

Joe Leydon, Variety
Occasionally, the filmmakers reveal a cheeky willingness to upend genre conventions, particularly when bending the rules regarding who lives and who dies in this sort of pic. Full Review

Neil Genzlinger, New York Times
It may not be classic sci-fi like the original Alien, which it has in its DNA, but it's a perfectly respectable next step in the series. Full Review

Mark Olsen, Los Angeles Times
The action is rendered with such disconcertingly low light levels -- and of course there is heavy rain for the climatic sequences -- that it can be a strain to simply see what is occurring on-screen. ... Full Review

Kirk Honeycutt, Hollywood Reporter
So lacking in imagination is this movie that the Brothers Strause and writer Shane Salerno keep scrambling back to the original movie for inspiration.

Jason Anderson, Globe and Mail
That the first of many rote 'chest-burster' shots occurs 15 seconds into the movie is but one indication of the latest instalment's poverty of fresh shocks and rank air of desperation. Full Review

Ty Burr, Boston Globe
The problems with the movie are twofold and easy to spot: the acting stinks and you can't understand what's going on. Full Review

Aliens VS Predator - Requiem is the second film in the over hyped and under performing crossover series, which brings nothing new to the table while tarnishing the franchises' original films. Full Review
