2.5/5
"Obligada para los fans (para quienes es un paraíso, a ratos), entretiene lo suficiente como para justificar el pago de la entrada."  Cinenganos  Alex Ramirez

"in this war, it is ultimately the viewer who is left out in the cold"  Movie Gazette  Anton Bitel

C-
"I am very happy to report that Alien Vs. Predator is not a complete disaster."  FromTheBalcony  Bill Clark

D
"Maybe the Predators should spend a little less time hunting aliens, and more time trying to recapture some cinematic integrity."  FilmJerk.com  Brian Orndorf

"King of the video game movies, director Paul W.S. Anderson continues to meet and resist expectations."  PopMatters  Cynthia Fuchs

1/5
"[It's] a sour footnote to both franchises."  eFilmCritic.com  David Cornelius

1/4
"A brainless, clueless concept. And it's not even a fun one, either."  Cinemaphile.org  David Keyes

2/4
"I didn't hate it nearly as much as I ought to have, thought I would, and/or everyone else."  Movie Boeuf  David N. Butterworth

2/4
"While...the movie isn't good exactly, it's certainly not the trainwreck everybody's been expecting."  Reel Film Reviews  David Nusair

D
"Unwatchable!"  Ozus' World Movie Reviews  Dennis Schwartz

2/4
"Has been rendered impotent by the insane demands of a studio obsessed with the PG-13 rating. An attractive but empty horror-lite version."  TheMovieBoy.com  Dustin Putman

C+
"Most of the film is good enough that way: dumb, but not boring."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

2/4
"...a murky and ludicrous thriller...a dyspeptic and droll display that yearns to breathe life into two forgotten frightfest franchises"  Movie Eye  Frank Ochieng

D
"In this contest it's boredom and stupidity that are victorious...though loud and brutally paced and edited, far more silly than scary."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

1.5/4
"This is a dull, plodding, ultra-serious feature that has a lot more in common with a video game than a motion picture."  ReelViews  James Berardinelli

4/10
"un divertissement estival parmi tant d'autre qui n'a absolument rien de mythique n'est pas pour autant désagréable si on le prend pour ce qu'il est"  Panorama  Jean-François Vandeuren

2/10
"Took a premise rife with potential and created perhaps the most boring story possible to accomodate the two sci-fi races."  Window to the Movies  Jeffrey Chen

2/4
"It certainly delivers as a loving homage to two of our favorite monsters and their respective super-duper powers."  Slant Magazine  Jeremiah Kipp

5/10
"...didn't turn out to be as great as I hoped it might, but also didn't turn out to be as bad as it could have either."  JoBlo's Movie Emporium  JoBlo

75/100
"It’s not groundbreaking and it’s not revolutionary, but it is just as exciting as its premise."  FilmFocus  Joe Utichi

5/10
"AVP is like one of those video shoot-'em-ups that looks great on your computer screen but has no story to it."  DVDTown.com  John J. Puccio

"As you get older, you learn that some things are worth waiting for. Then there's Alien Vs. Predator "  Light Views  John Larsen

4/5
"As chock full of “oh jeez” moments as it is full of genuine enjoyment for fans. But if you are not a fan, the “oh jeez” moments will far outweigh the enjoyment. "  Cinerina  Karina Montgomery

2.5/4.0
"Anyone who ever smiled at the thought of aliens and predators battling for supremacy will certainly get their money’s worth."  MovieCrypt.com  Kevin A. Ranson

3.5/5
"The humans are insignificant... They really only serve as incubation chambers for baby aliens... But, this is important because the movie isn’t about them."  7M Pictures  Kevin Carr

1.5/4
"Uninspired, dull and utterly forgettable."  Montreal Film Journal  Kevin N. Laforest

2/5
"Once the running and screaming starts, the proceedings degenerate into a surprisingly Alien 3-like morass of claustrophobic sprints through dark corridors, punctuated by boogie beasts springing out of the shadows."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

2.5/4
"A new generation adopts my generation's horror films"  Movie Habit  Marty Mapes

"How many awful, monotonous, stupid movies does Anderson have to make before they take away his scissors and crayons?"  Flick Filosopher  MaryAnn Johanson

1.5/4
"The once-promising project was doomed to disaster, going back to the very moment Paul W.S. Anderson was awarded directing and screenwriting duties."  Mr. Brown's Movies  Michael Dequina

0.5/5
"According to the production notes on the official website, over 40 ideas were hurled around the offices of Fox. Out of 40 other ideas, this is the one they chose?"  Film Threat  Michael Ferraro

2/5
"Alien Vs. Predator was boring, which is the greatest crime a filmmaker can commit when making a movie like this."  Goatdog's Movies  Michael W. Phillips, Jr.

1.5/4
"The film has many problems, but here's the biggest: It's rated PG-13 and it should have been rated R."  Aisle Seat  Mike McGranaghan

C
"Unsurprisingly mediocre."  Lessons of Darkness  Nick Schager

3/5
"Acaba funcionando simplesmente por matar a curiosidade dos fãs com relação ao que aconteceria caso dois dos monstros mais populares do Cinema moderno viessem a se encontrar."  Cinema em Cena  Pablo Villaca

1.5/5
"Fans of both Alien and Predator will likely be howling for Paul W.S. Anderson's head, and I can't say that I blame them."  Film Threat  Pete Vonder Haar

"So instantly forgettable that it will evaporate from memory so quickly that it will seem as if it never existed..."  Critic Doctor  Peter Sobczynski

2.5/5
"After a garbled and jumpy opening this settles into a rather enjoyable action movie."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline

2/5
"Alien vs. Predator is a cool-looking lunchbox that's full of rocks."  eFilmCritic.com  Scott Weinberg

3/5
"lance is the man"  sbs.is  Stefan Birgir Stefansson

"It's exactly what you would expect it to be, as long as you don't expect too much."  ESplatter  Steve Biodrowski

0.5/4
"Without a kinky moment towards the end where it seems like Alexa is going to lay a big wet one on a Predator, there's almost no reason to stay awake."  Film Freak Central  Walter Chaw

2/4
