(3.5 out of 5)This movie was about average. I liked the first one more. Plus, the first one wasn’t as gorey. I mean, they went a little too far with the blood and gore and violence. 8 year-old boys were killed, little babies were eaten,pregnant women were…………I won’t even tell you it’s too gross. That too me, was the worst part about this movie. The fighting in the first movie was way cooler and better, but the fighting scenes in this one was awesome as well. Plus, the alien/predator hybrid was cool. Another problem is this movie is it’s really hard to see what’s going on, you really have to stare at the TV. The setting for the whole movie was at night.(just about)Other than that, the movie was kinda good.
The movie follows right after the first one, like a couple of minutes afterward. I won’t ruin the first movie if you haven’t seen it, let’s just say that the Predator ship that was leaving Earth crashes in a small Colorado town and unleashes the Predator/Alien hybrid,along with a ton of aliens. There, the aliens slowly start picking off the townspeople one by one. The people of the town have to stand together and not only fight off the aliens, but also the new Predator, which has come to Earth to exterminate all the aliens. But don’t think he’s on the humans side, he’s on his side. The Predator even kills a couple of humans. So the townspeople has to hold out until the army comes to save them, but the army is not planning on helping the civilians, they’re main priority is containment first. Which means, that the aliens are multiplying by the second.
This movie was an okay movie. If they had toned down the violence a bit and the night scenes would have
been perfected I would probably have given this a better review. But, despite it’s many flaws I do recommend this movie, probably like a second choice movie, like the movie you wanted to rent was sold out but this was available. I might just buy this movie, since I’ve already got the first one. Be a shame to not complete the collection.Most reviews from this movie were bad from critics but here’s the thing. It’s a critic’s job to hate films and find every flaw in it. I base reviews on if I like it and whatnot. If I like a film but I have to give a bad review like critics do, that’s like lying to me. I think of myself as a true critic.
