At the Movies!

So today I watched the original 'Alien vs. Predator' film as well as Jackie Chan's 'The medallon'.

Alien vs. Predator: As someone who has watched the Predator trilogy and had some prior knowledge of the Alien series (and therefore, the xenomorphs), I must say that the movie is actually pretty decent. On the upside, the action scenes are pretty good, the set design is fantastic and so is the creature desing. On the downside, the dialogue is lame, the story takes itself too seriously and overall whoever decided that giving this movie a PG-13 treatment was a good idea should be fired at the spot.

The Medallion : Plot-holes aside, who thougt that adding CGI to a Jackie Chan film was a good idea? Other than that Jackie Chan and Claire Forlani did a great job. The best advice I can give you before you watch this movie is that you shouldn't expect anything more but a fun action movie. Oh, and no matter what happens do NOT compare this film with either the Rush Hour or the Shangai series, because otherwise you are probably going to hate it.
