 Awful... useless... one of the worst movies ever! September 12, 2008

I could not believe it. This os simply one of the worst movies ever. IT's cheap, sickening, useless. IT does not serve even as mindless fun. evn if your turn off your brain, your senses will alert you how the intentions of the producers are fake, from the absurd lack of lightning (where you can't see the fights), to fast editing, through horrible "acting" and obnoxious directing (by two guys!)
It's onet of the worst movies ever, where producers thought: "This is trash, but some people will enjoy it". It's the worst that Hollywwod can offer.
Yes, I'm a sucker, because I've watched it. I did not even rent it, or downloaded it, I BOUGHT the DVD! (because, believe it or not, I thought the fist movies, although completely unecessary and forgettable twenty minutes after leaving the theater, an enjoyable one).
Maybe a good movie if I could see it. September 6, 2008

The whole movie takes place in pitch darkness. I assume they do this so they wouldnt have to spend a lot of money on special effects. There are multiple parts where predator is messing around with his gear but you cant see anything, just the light reflecting off his armor.
Becasue of this I have to say that this might very well be the worst movie I have ever seen, who the hell makes an entire movie is pure darkness.

First and foremost, I hope this franchise continues. I saw the theatrical cut and I enjoyed it, and this unrated version again proves that the unrated version continues to be the gold standard in movies.REQUIEM has a very good story, and the unrated places more of the theatrical version in context, and whats more fun is we get to see more of the predator's tool kit and his/her/its pack of goodies. Whilst the directors clearly have a favorite version of the predator and Aliens ( more relevant in the case of the Alien with 4 if not more directors putting there thoughts in the canon of the Aliens Quadrilogy). Viewers of the Theatrical version will not appreciate just how much has been put back in, or redone until they see the film, and hear the directors and producer commentary.This is truly a film for the fans, but I think if you love a bit of Horror and Sci-fi mixed, you should still enjoy it.
And if you can't see this film, either get glasses, or fumble for the contrast controls on the TV... the Unrated version is well shot and is in tone with what the Directors wanted. The lights are light and the darks are dark... thats the way this movie was done. I suspect that part of the reason that the creature sequences are allegedly darker is that they are attempting to stop revealing too much, since the creatures are in full frame.
THE DVD:
The Commentaries are the best element. The Directors and the producer give the best information, however, if you want something entertaining and informative, Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff satisfy.
ENJOY
 I'll never get the time I spent watching it back... September 2, 2008

I absolutely adored the first movie. It was outstanding on many levels, especially the strong female lead. I had expected more of the same as far as energy, adrenaline and characters you find yourself invested in. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. It was formulaic and easily anticipated. Teenage "B" horror movie is a more apt description of a movie sequel that leaves you feeling hollow and awaiting the "real" sequel, that couldn't possibly be this one.
 TOO DARK!!! (but otherwise good) August 26, 2008

I HATE how so many film makers seem to be in love with dark movies!!! 95% of this movie was filmed in severe darkness, and it makes me angry because it was very difficult to follow what was going on. There's lots of chaotic action happening in nearly complete darkness. CUT IT OUT!!! Stop making movies this dark!!! I had to turn the lights off to help me see the movie better, but that only helped slightly. Wow I feel like slapping repeatedly the movie directors who think it's such a great idea to use so much darkness in their movies.
Other than that, the story was perfect and I liked everything else about the movie. I would be glad to see lots more Alien and Predator movies, as long as they aren't so freaking dark!
