Masterpiece that has yet to be topped

Rating: 10/10 (24 October 2005)

'Alien' is one of the greatest movie ever made. Gathering one of the best set of actors there has ever been, Ridley Scott manages to create a frightening, dark, narrow, scary environment where we follow the crew taken and killed, one by one, by the vicious creature they discover by accident. Sigourney Weaver delivers such a good performance she should have been nominated for awards, as does Ian Holm in his very truthful role as a corrupted, humanoid robot.
'Alien's nature isn't suitable for smaller youths (<13) but anyone else should, regardless of their usual opinion on action/horror, see this movie that is a true landmark in film history. 10/10
