A masterpiece !

Rating: 10/10 (7 August 2013)

This movie is really excellent and haven't too aged despite its age. The rise of anxiety is progressive, but totally mastered. The scenario is not very profound but it's okay. Letting some unanswered questions helps to deepen the fear of an unknown enemy. Each appearance of the Alien is both terrifying and beautiful. The music accentuates the fear. Sigourney Weaver, aka Ripley, is perfect in his role. Some moment are quite gory, but there are not many. The atmosphere claustrophobic in the middle of the space is well rendered​​. The sets of the ship are in total agreement with the atmosphere of the movie. The suspense never released, until the final unexpected. A great movie !
