An under-appreciated sequel

Rating: 10/10 (21 May 2013)

I started my IMDb account to review this film, and to through some positive air into the mix.
Alien 3 is not the action-packed sequel that was "Aliens". It's a return to the thriller/horror genre that was the first film.
I can't understand why people don't like this film. The acting is excellent, the sets are perfect to a T, the rod puppetry that brigs the Alien to life is superb. Even the plot, which could be better, is interesting.
Besides, while it isn't as good as the first two films, it is better than all following installments in the franchise (Alien Resurrection, Alien vs Predator 1+2.) This movie is given a lot less credit than it deserves, and is a fitting ending to the Alien series. (This is the ending. Resurretion was a hallucination had by fans of the series.)
