Review of Event Horizon (DVD)

All that waiting for this!!!

Advantages: Graphics
Disadvantages: Everything else

Alien versus Predator Whoever wins we lose. Even the snappy subtitle starts some contraversy. As we have seen from Predator 1 all that was needed to kill a predator was one man. Ok it was arnold schwarzenegger but we could just get him again with some of his mates to kill three. As for the aliens there are about 10 of them so nothing really to be scared of if they win 10 aliens is not enough to defeat the human race. With this title without having ...
...like CG in Predator and Alien 1. The aliens look very realistic, if you have ever seen an alien in real life before, and all the weapons of the predators look great too even the costumes are advanced from the originals in Predator. However I have to talk about the negatives. You are going to be here for a long time! Firstly I am utterly disappointed that this movie was only a 15. This limits the amount of gore you actually see and in my view sort ...

Review of Alien Vs Predator (Special Edition) (DVD)

One ugly motherf***ing film"

Advantages: Potential of story.
Disadvantages: Everything else.

...joking, either. I mean Alien Resurrection was bad, but AVP is even below that level. The characters are lame, the acting cringe-worthy, and the PG rating is just a pathetic attempt at persuading younger audiences to hit the cinema and make more money for the corporate whores within the FOX network. With very little violence or gore, even the much anticipated alien vs predator fight is a huge disappointment. The only ever-so-slightly saving grace ...
...everything we loved about the Alien and Predator franchises within the space of one hour fifty mins. Oh, and there was the small issue of the Alien 5 project been completely dead and buried after Aliens Vs Predator was given the green light to be made. Talk about a kick in the teeth. I'm going to go cry now. (C) Andy Carrington, 2009 [as part of www.andycarrington.co.uk] ...

Review of Alien Vs Predator (Blu-Ray)

Fear and Discipline - Always

Advantages: An action film with more than glib one liners to say
Disadvantages: Slo-mo cryin'

...new soldiers, including Kane, the soldier who almost killed Russell's character and who he blinded. Commence the showdown. Aside from Kurt Russell who most people will be familiar with, Kane is aptly played by Jason Scott Lee (The Jungle Book). The supporting cast includes Sean Pertwee (51st state, Dog Soldiers) and Connie Nielsen (Gladiator) as well a short cameo by Gary Busey (Lethal Weapon, Under Siege). The sadly repetative nasty English dude ...
...Down). Seems to me that a lot of people expected this to be Rambo in space, and would have been far happier if it was. I'm certainly happy it was'nt - Kurt does a fine job of portraying an emotional cripple. The scene where he's sitting outside the compound shows this, albeit the decision for two slow-mo replays detracts from the moment. This is not a classic SF movie in the way that Bladerunner, Alien, Silent running, Logan's run or THX1138 were, ...
