Vin is seriously cool, the plot was fine - as good as Event Horizon, so I'm pissed that the professional critics trashed this movie. Can't wait for the other two sequels. Was this review helpful?

Really, really scary and not augmented too much by effects - just acting. Made me a huge fan of Dourif.<br><br>Scary hospital scene - a great "BOO!". The evil minions have some rather novel ways of killing folks too - which are recounted by Brad in a truly chilling way.<br><br>Almost as good as the original. Was this review helpful? Sign In 2 out of 2 users found this helpful Entertaining, but probably the weakest of the four Alien movies. Cinematography is a bit disturbing as the first-person/speed and general 'tone' of the movie is strange. The alien is not as cunning, or vicious (it's also smaller isn't it?). Great acting, but a few 'pregnant pauses'. Reminds me of Spielberg's Encounters...<br> Was this review helpful?

The best line I've ever heard in a movie: "This ship is F**ked!" - perfectly stated.<br><br>unique special effects and disturbing methods of people dying... Was this review helpful? Sign In 1 out of 1 users found this helpful Posted: 7/27/2003A review of Alien [Film Series] by HAZARD_OZ Most striking is the understated (at first) building of tension and the evolution of one truly scary monster. Each evolution of the alien is a surprise, topped even more by the alien's residence, albeit temporary, in the escape capsule.<br><br>A brilliant film, even today. Was this review helpful?

Equipment and tactics of the marines are reasonable for the timeframe, great acting all around - and of course, Sigourney Weaver. Totally different type of movie than the first, but just as exciting.<br> Was this review helpful?

Really nasty humans, and really bloodthirsty aliens (though they still seem to be getting smaller). Nice cinematography... the water scene is cool as the approach to Earth. Some great surprises, and very strong acting. Excellent final 'surprise'.<br><br>Grows on you. Was this review helpful? Sign In 1-7 of 7 Per Page |
