Oh snap! The predators are fighting the aliens! Credit this with you know what you're getting just from the title. As a fan of both the "Alien" series and the original "Predator," I can say that I had very little interest in this and also that it is ridiculous, but not in a bad way. This owes nearly as much to Carpenter's "The Thing" and "Chariot of the Gods" (aliens visited earth to build pyramids and be worshiped) as it does to its sources. It builds suspense well before just embracing its absurdity. Bonus for casting Lance Henriksen. You could spend plenty of time pointing out the plot holes and the confusing story, but I'll just pick one: Wouldn't the predators, with all their advanced technology, have better, acid-proof armor by now? Just saying. From the director of "Resident Evil."
