    Are there any good "versus" films?

    The case against
    Batman v Superman
    Freddy vs Jason
    Alien vs Predator


    The case for
    Kramer vs Kramer wasn't terrible
    Ditto Joe Versus the Volcano
    I have a soft spot for Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla

    The People vs Larry Flynt is legitimately good.

    I also have Dick Tracy vs Cueball on a compendium of 40s 'tec B-flicks, it's kinda fun.

      Yup, I'll grant you that one.

        I hope they make a film of that Salman Rushdie novel so we can find out who the opponent was

          I did what I should have done in the first place and searched IMDB.

          Yes, they're predominantly terrible, but a couple of standouts:

          1 Scott Pilgrim vs. the World
          2 Tucker & Dale vs Evil

          #2 is ace. Shame it's not more widely known.

            'Scott Pilgrim vs...' is great, bizarrely under-rated when it came out.

              Allies versus Germany in Escape to Victory.

              Okay, perhaps not.

                It's one of my favourite films.

                  Good.

                        I love how the Mega Shark Vs Giant Octopus poster makes it look like Debbie Gibson played the shark. The fact she was in it at all has always been surreal enough. Almost as strange as her charting a version of You're The One That I Want with Craig "Mona/Neighbours" McLachlan.

                        (Er, not from the film's soundtrack, I hasten to add. Although a mega-shark/giant octopus duet on that would be an...interesting romantic twist.)

                          I watched Cockneys v Zombies on a plane once and it was a laugh. I also developed a bit of a crush for Michelle Ryan.

                            There was a sequel, which presumably gives away the result of the first battle for those who haven't seen it.

                                Though this review says it's the fourth... because we missed out the first one:

                                  The first in the "series" also had Tiffany in it.

                                    Cats vs. Dogs ...although that was a documentary, of course.
