AVP: Alien vs. Predator

2004

Directed by Paul W. S. Anderson

Whoever wins...we lose.

When scientists discover something near Antarctica that appears to be a buried Pyramid, they send a research team out to investigate. Little do they know that they are about to step into a hunting ground where Aliens are grown as sport for the Predator race.

Review by Jay ★★★ 8

sexual tension between the predator and a human woman was not on my bingo card
Review by Ian ★★★★ 5

Review by SilentDawn ★★★★½ 45

90/100
More refined, contemplative, and formally inventive than Prometheus, and smoothed over with a gooey layer of sci-fi schlock right out of the early 50s. It's essentially Paul W.S. Anderson's The Thing From Another World; talkative, haunted by strange, triangular corridors and circular depths, and completely understanding of its own premise. Part H.P. Lovecraft, viscid horror, and 80s team-up videogame showdown, Alien vs. Predator flies past its own genre foundations as soon as it can, instead choosing to unleash stock (although memorable and never annoying) characters into macabre interiors festering with creatures and creepy crawlies. It's a blast from beginning to end, divulging fanboy dreams and playing with iconography while still remaining spooky and tangible (there's a flurry of practical effects here and they're all wonderful). Not quite my favorite W.S. Anderson film, but it's damn close. Practically an "At the Mountains of Madness" buddy picture. Flares and predators and facehuggers, oh my!
Review by David Sims ★★★ 8

a major studio took two of its biggest names and had them star in this lil shithouse of a picture. would never happen now. such a quaint delight. love an ICE TOMB
Review by Matt Singer ★★½ 4

The movie runs 89 minutes and a full third of that is wasted introducing a ton of human characters who are treated like cannon fodder the second the title characters show up. Still, the effects are gloppily, gloriously practical and it’s hard to entirely dismiss any film where Sanaa Lathan wields a severed xenomorph head as a shield.
Review by Josh Lewis ★★★ 3

Gotta respect that this does exactly what it says on the tin, and with great production design and some solid helpings of goop too.
Review by CinemaJoe ★★★ 9

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

A character wields a xenomorph head as a shield and a predator does a fun twist in the air to impale the queen xenomorph, cool movie thats shot well!
Review by Scott Anderson ½ 29

Forty five minutes into this film, and the intensity was unbearable. I break into a pretty serious sweat, and my nerves are fried. Where is the creature? It could be hiding behind any nook, any cranny...it could be waiting for the perfect time to strike. My skin is crawling just typing this because I am reliving the experience all over again. It will be a miracle if I can get any sleep at all tonight. This will haunt me for quite some time.
You know, I am reading that first paragraph again and I just realized it might be a tad misleading. AVP: Alien vs. Predator is a terrible film. I mean holy shit, it is a film about the…
Review by CosmonautMarkie ★½ 3

This is the second predator movie I watched. I realized very quickly that this was a mistake
Good:
- Fleshes out the predator mythology
- cool good guy predator that helps the lady fight the dumb aliens
- Predator and alien props are okay
Bad:
- bad story
- bad humans
- aliens and predators are made less powerful and less cool
- why would predators ever hunt humans if they already created aliens to hunt
Review by Paimonn ★½ 1

The Predator dramatically reveals his face to Alexa in a long awkward silence
Me, drenched in sweat: they're gonna fuck
Review by nathaxnne [hiatus] ★★★★★ 13

I have demonstrated to myself that I can watch and rewatch AVP endlessly. In the mid 00's it felt needlessly mass-market, gunning for tween/teen/family multiplex expenditure, sanding off the edges on creature design and gore, making a big-tent sci-fi film barely acknowledging that hardcore fans were paying cash money to see Predator/Xenomorph Mortal Kombat, and what they saw failed by pleasing no one. After 12 years, what seemed like weaknesses no longer do, at least not to the same extent, and what AVP does well, is stunning. I am not the first person to point out that AVP takes Lovecraftian Ancient Antarctic Astronaut Mythos and runs with it, producing an In The Mountains Of Madness Riff that not only got…
Review by matt lynch ★★★

Has more in common with PROMETHEUS -- both formally and narratively -- than you would even think to remember. Whatever that says.
