Movie review: Alien Versus Predator
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars.
Date of release: 19th August 2004

As the story goes, under the artic ice cap lies a hidden temple. a bunch of expedition lovers decided to explore what's in there, all 15 of them going down a 30degree tunnel without light emerging at its end...

Predator ---

Lives in space, in this super high tech humongous spacecraft where they can see whatever/whoever enters tt temple in 3D-projected-vision, on a common palm top. In that temple holds 3 sacred guns, well guarded by a time-lock, intended for 'the chosen ones' to use during emergencies when giant lizard-like aliens decide to run wild and attack Earth's surface.

Predators were of higher intelligence, being the ones who taught Human about forming civilizations, building pyramids and settling populations into the exotic Inca Civilization. Humans thus worshipped Predators! Predators visit Earth every 100 years, on 10/10/XX04. that means that tentatively, they would be here in 2 months time =)

Weapons:

Strong, tall and well built. run / jump far and fast. each carried a Monkey God's magical rod that could extend or shorter at their whim and fancy, but equiped with spear heads at both ends as well as a boomerang with 6 curved blades to slice their prey, somewhat like a Ninja's weapon. have a high tech time bomb too!

Personality: Courageous. Determined warriors. Don't eat aliens or humans. Kill for the fun of killing. Barbaric in behavior yet understands the importance of forming alliances of convenience.

Weakness:

Their exterior protection are vulnerable towards Alien's slime / blood, which is acidic in character, sizzling through their metal shields. center of torso is their fatal spot due to lack of protection, thus easily pierced through by Alien's whipping tail.

Human:

Lives in Planet Earth. serves no apparent purpose except to provide Aliens as a source of food and as a mean of impregnantation and reproduction of baby alien-human hybrids... Human gets wiped out in the first 30 minutes of war, except for a single Femme Fatale in red who then cooperates with Predator in oder to stay alive.

Whichever side wins. Human loses.

Personality:

Intelligent and witty, yet stubborn. filled with emotions ans humanity, can cry for the Predator who died de to an unspoken friendship bond between.

Weakness:

No efficient weapons to fight Predator or Alien. destined to die. unarmed with natural infra-red vision or ability to camouflage into the surroundings making themselves an easy target.

Aliens:

Lives in a secret chamber beneath the hidden temple pyramid. chained up by Predator Ancestors in ancient times. serves as a prey for the Predators to hunt in this game, in order to allow junior Predators to be crowned as brave warriors of their tribe.

Weapons:

Highly acidic slime and blood. Lizard-like features enables them to leap high, strike and land steadily. able to blend in with the stone surroundings, creep on the sides of walls and sneak up on their preys. No high tech weapons, guns or laser pointers. Reproduces by suffocating and trapping their prey in their thick slime, then impregnating them in the center of chest. the baby alien grows by feeding in that prey, when it is old enough, it burst its way out of the prey's rib cage and the prey dies a violent blody death.

Personality:

Primitive, animal-like and instinctive. but quite brainless. loves to eat humans and tries to eat Predator.

Weakness:

Due to its low intelligence level and animal instincts, it is easily outwitted by Predator and Human. taken for a deep dive in the end. though it is able to leap and bite its prey at their shoulders, it is not strong enough. too rash in its actions leads to its ultimate death.

Ending:

Predator and Human victorious, and form a friendly alliance. Predator returns to outer space, with one dead warrior. Human lives. Baby Alien tags along with Predator back into space.
