TWO BATTLES YOU WON'T WANT TO MISS! A GUILTY PLEASURE! 
2008-06-15
I know that purist are not fond of what's been going on with their beloved Alien and Predator franchises, but truth be told these film aren't bad. All things considered they have come up with a story that works to bring the two classic creatures together to do battle in this fun action flick and it's sequel!
I love movies and appreciate great works of art in film. I also am not above loving a good popcorn flick! Movies are here for our enjoyment, but unfortunately, some people are so pompous they forget what it's all about! ....... entertainment! I'm not knocking world class films like Gone With The Wind, Citizen Kane, The Godfather etc..etc., but all films don't have to be so profound......do they?
This gimmick is no different than what was done in the 40's when classic films like 'Frankenstein' and 'The Bride Of Frankenstein' had sequels like 'Frankenstein meets the Wolfman'! Although it's not a classic, it's still a memorable and fun movie.
These films don't destroy what was great about the classics, they actually pay great respect...a homage if you will to the originals. If you don't like these films....fine, but for me I have to admit I enjoy them ...if done right. The unrated versions are the best versions I've seen and the first film edges out the sequel, mostly because you can see all the action!
I did not have the same problem some reviewers have stated about everything being in the dark(to be fair I do have a huge screen, it might make a difference??). Some scenes are dark, but I only had two scenes where I couldn't tell who was kicking who's butt! It only lasted for a few seconds each time. It could have been brighter, but it wasn't too distracting. Grab some popcorn and some beers and watch these Sci-Fi Battle Royals!
A travesty

This was a poor film. There was virtually no plot - what there was did not improve on the average 1950s horror B film, in which a load of small town idiots run around screaming and being picked off by the B.E.M.s, even uses the common 1950s ending in the monsters being nuked. I thought the original AvP was well done - but this is rubbish. No plot, poor acting and even the CGI was unoriginal and feeble.
A Plain Buy!

This packagae could have been so much better by just including the special editions of each movie but oh well. Overall a great two-set that will extend anyones likenesses for the films.
Good movie but liked the 1st AVP better. 2008-05-28
I do agree that AVP 2 is darker then the first AVP was.
But I thought it was good dispite the darkness of the movie.
If you have seen the Aliens movies they are all in the dark.
Alien Quadrilogy (Alien/ Aliens /Alien 3 /Alien Resurrection)
So it is in keeping with the Alien dark movies.
I liked both AVP's but I think I still like the first AVP better.

It was OK, I probably would have not bought it if I seen it in the movies. It was filmed very dark and hard to see. I liked the first one better.

ShockingTransfer 2008-04-29
I picked up this dvd in Australia (Region 4) and I was so mad after waiting so long for this to come out. The Picture is simply to dark - Both my projector and Television are callibrated using digital video essentials and I watch with all the lights out.
Avoid this dvd if you can, it is one of the worst transfers ever.
Save yoour $$$$$ 2008-04-25
Can't compare to the original movie in which you could see the action. This mess was shot mostly in the dark so you can't see anything much. All you get is a soundtrack with everyone yelling at one another. My guess is that it takes less talent and money to make a dark movie.
I exchanged my first DVD for a replacement, which was just as bad as the first one.....so I guess I didn't get a defective disk, the movie is just too dark to see. I guess the producer wanted to leave the action to your imagination????
BEWARE OF DEFECTIVE COPIES BEING SOLD! 2008-04-21
I SAW ALIENS VS PREDATOR - REQUIM, AT THE THEATRE. THE PICTURE QUALITY WAS GREAT. EVERYTHING WAS CRYSTAL CLEAR. I COULD SEE THE VIBRANT COLORS OF THE TREES AND PLANTS. CLOTHING COLORS WERE CLEAR. I COULD SEE THE DETAILS OF THE ALIENS AND THE PREDATOR. IT WAS AN EXCELLANT LOOKING PICTURE. WHEN I RECEIVED MY COPY OF THE 2 PACK ALIEN VS PREDATOR 1 AND ALIENS VS PREDATOR - REQUIM. I WAS VERY EXCITED TO WATCH THE MOVIE. IT WAS HORRIBLE. I WAS FURIOUS. IT IS CRIMINAL THAT THEY ARE SELLING A PRODUCT THAT IS THIS BAD. THEIR WAS AN OBVIOUS PROBLEM AT THE FACTORY WHEN PRODUCING THE DVD TRANSFER. EVERYTHING WAS VERY DARK. MANY TIMES THE PICTURE ON THE TV SCREEN WAS NEARLY ALL BLACK AND SOMETIMES ALL BLACK. IT WAS LIKE LISTENING TO A RADIO BROADCAST. I ONLY WATCHED ABOUT 40 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT OFF. I AM SENDING IT BACK TO AMAZON BECAUSE IT IS DEFECTIVE. HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE. MATTHEW PENDERGRAPH IS FULL OF SH ^#@*(&! THE DVD IS DEFECTIVE. THEY NEED TO RE-RELEASE IT.
AVP Mania 
2008-04-20
This was purchased as a gift for my husband and what a great gift it was. He is a huge Alien fan and AVP fan. I was new to AVP but was impressed by them. The first one is my favorite but the second was good as well. AVP Requiem has more dialogue, which is fine, but at times it's not the best. There is a lot more of a gore factor to the Requiem also so it would be too much for young eyes. They were very enjoyable and we will watch them again and again.
