The problems I have with this movie

2. Too many cool human characters die too soon.

6. Not enough alien vs predator action.

Sadly, filmmakers feel the need of showing humans as worthy beings.

I've never seen a movie with aliens and humans where no human get a highlight role.

Here we have 2 strong alien races fighting each other, and humans got there by luck. It was great how fighting the aliens was a real challenge for the predators. But as said they died too quickly and easily. Then the lone survivor ends up teaming with the girl and recognizing her skills.

If I was a predator leader, I'd consider a shame him "needing the help" of a human and would consider his challenge as a failure and his surviving as a cowardice.

No way was he needing help a bad thing, a cowardly thing. It'd be like training a hunting dog or a falcon to do your bidding- ultimately, the hunter still gets the kudos for recognizing and utilizing everything thing that can help him win. Loved this movie!!

Aliens was already on planet earth long ago somewhere ? ....

This film tells Acid blood is not extremely harmful to human
The shell from an alien head could make a defensible shield
Alien queen at the end finally drop in abyss and might one day replace ocean heart in titanic search

They should not changed how the Alien creature works. The Birthing-Out-Of-The-Chest was done way too fast. And of course the acid blood was downplayed in this one, and it shouldn't.

Other than that I liked it, actually. But of course I agree still with most of your points. Especially to have seen more battle... in fact that flash back thing where the Predators are cornered on top a pyramid and stormed by millions of Aliens was the money shot... that story would have been amazing to watch.

If I may,

I'll add:

#9. The predators look *way* too bulky, short and squat. Here, they're built like NFL Linebackers. I *much* prefer the tall, athletic basketball player/swimmer look that Kevin Peter Hall had. He is still the best, R.I.P.

They fixed this in the sequel and in 2010's "Predators" finally. The tall, sleek athletic swimmer look that was the original Predator.

These Predators looked all wrong. To me, anyways.

Mischief. Mayhem. Soap.

I agree with 2 and 5.

I didn't start watching the Alien movies until around a year or two ago and now finally got to this one today. I had avoided it, despite it being on my dvr, for a long time due to seeing directv's ratings showing it as being not very good. But I rate it a 7 and almost an 8 and thought it had a cool story.

Main problem I had is they JUST GOT THROUGH saying they were tricked down there by the predators to use them to produce aliens, and immediately after it they're like "this is their war, we're not involved" or something like that and magically a predator is friendly with one of them.

Plus, yes, the survivor was pretty annoying.
