Effects were ok to a point, story line was a little weak and it seemed that the writers tried to make light of the plot with the jokes. Gave little to no info about the predator that we did not already know. Movie was just a (lets make a Predator movie to make some money). Not much thought went into the plot and set effects. No mention or anything to Alien. But it was a movie about the Predator so I'll have to give that up. If you are going to see this and are expecting something like P 1 or P 2 or even AVP don't go, waste of time and money. It was a little better than the poor attempt of Alien requiem which never should have been produced. The only thing that was possible new was you were made aware of a class structure on the Predator home world and an on going civil war between the upper class and lower class.
