greatest sci-fi film ever

Rating: 10/10 (12 July 1999)

Alien: How can one review their favorite movie. I can begin by saying H.R.Giger (alien designer and artist) is brilliant. He created the most original and frightening creatures ever. The fact that the movie always hides the alien in the shadows made it even more frightening. Suspense has always been a hard thing for films to truly accomplish for me, but Alien creates it with ease. The pace of the movie drives along and engulfs the viewer. In the end, all I can say is that Alien is perhaps the most enjoyable movie I have seen.
