Utter, utter bilge

Rating: 1/10 (23 September 2008)

I am at a loss to explain the large number of positive reviews found on this site. I can only assume that people are judging it as a standalone affair, rather than one of the 'Alien' series, or that those true Alien fans gave up on the series after Alien 3. I hope so, for they were spared much suffering.
That this film carries the Alien title is, frankly, offensive; any comparison with the first two films comically absurd.
Even when viewed as a standalone generic action film this is utter drivel. The makers should be banned from film making, and criminal charges brought against those responsible for handing them the keys to the series.
