Went to see this tonight.

Goods: Awesome effects, good fight scenes and violence.

Bad: Plot was a little thin (but who didnt expect that) and the big showdown is a bit anticlimatic. .

I would definitely go see this movie. Great effects and good use of sound demand that you see this move in a theater. Of course they left the door open for a sequel or two. All in all, a good popcorn movie, worth going to see if you are a fan of the genre.

Appreciate the review, but this really needs to go in the "Other Topics" forum.

Don't answer! People like me with no self control whatsoever will be compelled to read the answer. Of course then again I probably won't see it anyway.... I still don't know who won in Freddy vs. Jason.

It's our planet, it's their war. Whoever wins, we lose.

Give me a break, a review of a recent movie embodies everything: news, views, and gossip.

If i would have to describe this movie in one word it would be "DUMB". Save your $10, watch Aliens again instead.
A non-spoiler quote from the movie to give your a better picture:
At some point a few character observe Aurora Borealis (for no reason whatsoever). A character who's all scientific says:
"These are Protons, ELECTRONS FROM THE SUN".
The others nod.
DUMB DUMB DUMB DUMB

This forum is General Gambling News, Views and Gossip. AvP doesn't have much to do with gambling.

You could gamble on its weekend rake on intertops, therefore, by theorizing it is worth watching you could bet the "over" on intertops, therefore, it could constitute "General Gambling --> News, Views, Gossip", I rest my case.

In my defense, the distinction in the left hand frame between General Gambling and Other Topics is barely discernible. At any rate, is is that big a deal? People need to lighten up around here. Anyhow, thanks for the stellar defense /images/graemlins/wink.gif

I've actually done this before. I put $20 on the over for The Alamo. Hmmm, that was a bad idea...

My two kids wanted to see it and surprisingly I liked it also. I really thought it was going to be really cheesy, but it turned out to be only slightly cheesy. I think it was a good effort especially since this was sort of a "forced" project to do. Ever since the alien skull was shown on Predator 2, there has been talking of the two species meeting.
