Alien resurrection sucks overall

Rating: 6/10 (8 June 2005)

Jean Pierre Jeunet swans in here all French with a yellow and brown colour palette with a chance to make a great movie in a massive franchise...and balls it all up! Why? The main star of the show was ignored (the aliens) and instead crappy humour and visuals destroyed a good storyline. Another thing this franchise does not require Ripley to survive!
The newborn was a good idea but looked really stupid. The idea that it thought Ripley was its mum was good and that when she killed you generally felt for the beast, but it looked crap, it had a pot belly for Christ's sake!. There were some good character development, and some characters to rival that of aliens, but other than that it wasn't that good. The story was the best thing. Another thing... Being a massive fan of the alien franchise mad me notice a few things about the creatures: 1. I suppose I don't mind them being brown in colour because if they were genetically bred from the alien on fury 161 and that alien was brown it figures really. 2. Why did the aliens roar? And why did it sound so lame? 3. Why did they spit acid? That was also very lame Now that I think about it this film isn't bad I suppose overall, 6 out of 10
