Parents need to know that this violent sci-fi action sequel is loud and gory, with multiple exploding chests and heads; lots of mangling, penetrating, and acid-burning; bloody injuries; screaming children; and gross-out assaults. There's a bit of cleavage, a scene that lingers on a girl's skimpy-underwear-clad bottom, a bit of drinking, and references to being stoned. Language includes repeated "f--k"s, plus other profanity.
Positive messages:Bullies pick on Ricky; ex-con Dallas is selfless and brave; mother/Iraq war veteran Kelly is selfless; the sheriff makes some wrong decisions; federal government representative is dishonest.
Violence:Typical Aliens-style violence includes chests exploding, teeth ripping flesh, acidic blood burning human faces. Standard Predator business includes hunting prey, shooting with lasers. Several scenes stand out: A small boy watches his father get attacked by an alien and cries in terror; the father's arm falls off, and after the boy is also attacked, both of their chests explode to "birth" toothy, hissy little aliens. A small girl sees her father assaulted by an alien who crashes through her bedroom window and rips him up. An alien enters the pregnancy ward, sucks babies out of women, and implants its own babies inside; a later scene shows their bellies bursting open bloodily to reveal little aliens. Other images include a space ship crashing, heads blown off or shot through with Alien's penetrating jaw, a girl pinned to a wall by Predator's throwing star, bullies hitting and kicking Ricky, shooting at the aliens that produces blood and burning flesh, and blood all over. Alien-Predator fights feature punching, kicking, biting, shooting, throwing bodies against/through walls. Nuclear explosion kills some protagonists.
Sex:Some women's T-shirts show cleavage. Brief flirtation between teenagers leads to her invitation to "go swimming": she removes her top to reveal lacy black bra and boy-short underpants; they kiss passionately, interrupted first by bullies, then aliens.
Language:Repeated uses of "f--k" (two with "mother"), plus other profanity, including "hell," "s--t," "damn," "dickhead," "a--hole," "bitch," "slut," and "ass." A joke about a "sausage-lover's pizza" is meant to suggest that the boy who ordered it is gay.
The way I watched this movie was when it was on FX. I have to say this was terrible. The storyline had no mind of it's own, the characters (most of them) were unlikeable and the movie was disgusting,bloody,violent and boring. For all you gore hounds out there, I do not understand you. 15+
This movie is violent, but it sucks so much, no one will care if they can't whatch it. The acting is horrible, ruining a good death scene! Also, random people would just walk in, that were never before shown in the movie. I hated this. Don't whatch it!
I haven't seen this movie, nor would I ever want to, but I read a detailed review of the violence, and it is absolutely disgusting and disturbing. This movie is obviously intended for adults, not 15 year olds. I would say don't let your kids under 17 watch this movie no matter what, watch the movie with your kids if they are 17-18, or better yet just don't watch it at all.
I couldn't tell what was going on for the last 45 minutes of the movie because it was night time and it was raining. So if your ok with not being able to see anything watch this movie. kids 10+ can watch it. Apart from the violence and some languaga it's not bad at all
I tihnk this movie was underrated. The only thing i really hated was that it was too dark to see anything!if it wasent for that, i think it would have been a much better movie!
Just not a good movie all around. Some of the violence is to be expected since it comes from two very gory franchises, but having aliens burst out of an 8 year old boy and a pregnant woman? Really? That's just tasteless.
I loved this movie! I saw the unrated version. So they said the f-word 19 times,There was breif topless female nudity,and a LOT of violence. But overall it wasn't that bad for horror or Sci-Fi people. I say good for 12 and up.
