Nothing.
Absolutely nothing.
Terrible script, ripping off mostly Aliens (Ripley clone, little girl, armoured tank,...).
This script has holes the size of Meteor Crater.
From the first five minutes, I hated everything, and I usually try to find some redeeming qualities in any movie.
If I had time and a hammer, I'd smash every copy, to "cleanse" the Alien/Predator legacies....

You actually watched it...LOL
I tried to watch it,I sat through the whole thing but the screen was so dark I couldn't see ****!!!
Was this just a bad copy or was it filmed that way so you couldn't see how bad it really was???

pure stupid crap! and Requiem was worse! Man I own the first 2 Aliens and the First Predator on dvd and when I watch them is like what happend the executives at 20th century fox should be all shot.I was watching an iterview on youtube a couple of months ago with James Cameron and they asked him about AVP AND AVP2 he sounded mad he said out of spite he would make another Aliens films for the fans

Really dark...way too dark.
I also didn't care for any of the humans (because the characters were never established) except for the hunting father and son in the beginning...but the rest I could care less...I was rooting for both Predator and the Aliens.
Also...the Predator world seems to be pretty close to earth...he sure got here pretty quickly, lol.
The Aliens also multiplied way too fast as well.
And do we really need to see a pregnant woman about to deliver get massacred by an Alien?
The whole movie was pretty pointless.

It was slightly better than the first, but they both sucked pretty hard.

That would be the best thing that could ever happen to this otherwise lackluster franchise, IMO. I recently obtained and watched the ALIENS Special Edition DVD, and it's absolutely amazing... all the more so because it was accomplished without an single frame of CGI. Not that I expect that to happen now, but if Cameron did indeed opt to make one more Alien film, it would surely be a jawdropper!

I actually liked AvP, not the best entry, but OK.
It was a movie you could watch (as opposed to AvP2).
Requiem was very aptly named: they killed it!
And don't even ask me what that "Predalien" was doing to that pregnant woman. *** was that? The writer's sick fantasy?

That's where I got it.
They should print a warning label on that thing....
Like: "Wouldn't you prefer a good rectal exam instead?"

Seriously now folks, bear in mind i have not seen this film yet, is it really that bad?
I have all the other Alien and Predator movies and i would not call any of them bad or awful.

Stewart, trust me.
I like ALL Alien and Predator movies!
Even Alien 3 and 4, and a lot of people don't.
I liked Avp 1. Again, I'm often on my own, 'cause a lot of people dislike the movie. I love Predator 2.
But I absolutely HATED AvP2. I could find NO redeeming features.
It's crap!
A crap story, ripping off previous movies, bad acting, and poor cinematography.
Their idea of "innovative" was having a "Predalien" French kiss a pregnant women until she blows up.
Need I say more??
