Alien Vs Predator Requiem Dvd Views

General Goods

Despite these very minor pleasures, 'AvP:R' is still a worthless addition to both the 'ALIEN' and 'Predator' franchises. I'm a fan of both series (though the 'ALIEN' sequels rapidly descended in quality after the second), and it's pretty obvious that once the vs. was added to the title, the properties were completely run into the ground. 'AvP' and 'AvP:R' are the bottom-feeders of movie sequels, chewing on the corpses of properties that should have been buried long ago. There is only slight geeky fascination left to be had in 'Requiem,' the equivalent of gawking at a cinematic car crash. I guess I still found myself staring, but I can promise you one thing -- I certainly won't get suckered in a third time.

Fox provides an 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 encode for 'ALIENS vs. Predator: Requiem' (framed at 2.40:1), with both the theatrical and unrated versions available from the start-up menu via seamless branching. Not only is the integration of the two cuts flawless, but the transfer is generally excellent -- easily one of the best I've seen lately from the studio.

'ALIENS vs. Predator: Requiem' is an entirely inconsequential film, and a nominal addition to both the 'ALIEN' and 'Predator' franchises. It only exists to show off some cool creatures tearing apart a lot of people -- although that may be enough for fans of Vs. flicks like this one. This Blu-ray delivers quite well on the video and audio fronts, and the supplements are about as good as one could expect for a film that's not really about anything. If you just want to watch an utterly stupid (if good-looking) B-movie, then by all means, enjoy 'AvP:R.' It also makes for a fine demo disc, too.
