Despite seeming like a cash grab by combining two franchises together, the story idea is pretty unique. Human explorers discover a buried pyramid which turns out to be a hunting ground for Predators for their coming-of-age type challenge, with the prey being the Aliens. We were promised epic fights between the two alien species and while it doesn't fully deliver in that front, the film itself was okay. It takes a short while (roughly 30 minutes) to set the story up and in particular, the first fifteen minutes felt painstakingly slow. The aliens themselves seems overpowered with most of the Predators quickly dropping off, there's no real hunting and stalking involved, which was the biggest letdown. The climax wasn't that great either and once the Predator teamed up with the human, it felt as if it never lived up to its potential as it immediately moved onto the ending.
