AVP was flawed but enjoyable. When I first saw it in theater I didn't like it that much though. Then again I saw the film in a shitty movie theater late at night. But when it came out on DVD I gave it another chance. It totally grew on me, I liked it the more I watched it.
AVP-R on the other hand nuked my soul the moment I got it on DVD. Although I enjoyed it in the movie theaters, the DVD on the other hand hit me like a ton of bricks in how seriously retarded this movie really is. Sometimes you gotta wait until the DVD comes out to give your final judgment on the film.
