Predator film, (and the individual Alien and Predator films), homo sapiens are ill-equipped for hand to hand combat against either species, and our weapons technology doesn't hold up well either. The AVP series is based on a simple and obvious premise: put an Alien and a Predator in a room - who wins? The answer is, inevitably, definitely not the humans caught in the middle. And perhaps that was for the best because now, seeing the film for the first time on Blu-ray Disc in its unrated extended director's cut, the second AVP film is actually fairly enjoyable. Predator: Requiem came to theaters, my expectations were so low I didn't bother to go see it. While a smack-down grudge match between the aliens from Alien and the aliens from Predator looked good on paper, the story, acting and film-making behind the first AVP movie never captured the excitement and bone-chilling dread of those earliest movies in each respective series. And while the original Predator provided some good old-fashioned shoot-em-up action-oriented entertainment, the first meeting of the two franchises didn't deliver on its promise. But the franchise went downhill quickly after those two.
Alien and Aliens were both great films – Ridley Scott's film a masterpiece of Science Fiction horror and James Cameron's movie an action-packed extravaganza. Predator (AVP) movie came out, the seventh film to include either an "Alien" or a "Predator," I formed a very clear opinion - they should have stopped at three.
