Fantastic

Rating: 10/10 (2 October 2003)

That is simply it this movie is fantastic, Ridley's use of camera and mood set a benchmark for other horror directors to follow. acompanied by how little he actually showed of the Alien and how HUMAN the characters seem to be. Now most will argue that yes Alien is a better film, in my personal opinion Alien is the best in the series, that's not to say i don't LOVE Aliens but it's more of an action movie than a thriller/horror. this disapointed me at first but when i watched it again i just relised how cool it actually was. Thankfully Alien 3 was released which brought back all that suspence and great camera and mood i love (especially when you see it from the Alien's perspective, that's just down right freaky). Alien 4.........well......um.....urrr........i'm sorry but it was just crap, focused way too much on gore and the cloning part? what the hell is with that I mean even if they could bring her DNA back (out of hot lead!!!) the chances of an Alien being inside yer a like the chances of me shuting up about this awfull movie. which i shall do know.
