a TYPE of review

Rating: 8/10 (19 July 2012)

The set design and visual effects in this movie are incredible. Not just for the time that this film was created but yet it still holds true today, and it is true also for the sequels that follow. The story line and character development for this first, and in my opinion brilliant, film are far superior to all of the sequels including the most recent prequel Prometheus in 2012. Each and every character is written and acted so well as opposed to the sequels that follow in which Sigourney Weaver is the only actor/actress who provides solid acting throughout. I create visual TYPE reviews. Check out my thoughts on this movie & the other Alien sequels here: www.atypeofreview.tumblr.com
