A great addition to the Alien saga

Rating: 7/10 (3 March 2008)

I believe Alien Resurrection is a masterpiece with tremendous visual effects, action sequences, emotionally-gripping acting, and suspense. I do believe that its predecessor, Alien 3, had great closure to it, but Alien Resurrection was able to give yet one more great thrill for Alien fans around the world. There is great cinematography in this film. For instance, I think the underwater scene in the film is tremendously done with a combination of slow-motion and fast-paced action suspense sequences. Sigourney Weaver does another terrific job as a true female bad ass. I cannot get over the awesome basketball shot she delivers in the film. There is a very powerful relationship between Ripley's clone and the Alien. It is sad to see the reaction the Alien has towards Ripley betraying it in the end. Great job to Jean-Pierre Jenuet as well for a science fiction classic.
