Don't Resurrect This. Bury It.

Rating: 1/10 (6 January 2016)

Alien: Resurrection (1997): Dir: Jean-Pierre Jeunet / Cast: Sigourney Weaver, Winona Ryder, Ron Perelman, Dan Hedaya, Michael Wincott: About as exciting as blowing your nose on your hand. Doesn't look like a resurrection as it does something that should be buried in a septic tank. Ripley is now over 200 years old thanks to cloning technology. There is an alien inside her and the crew fish it out and sew her up then study twelve of them behind unbreakable glass. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that the unbreakable glass is about as effective as a one-legged man at an ass kicking contest. Director Jean-Pierre Jeunet should have save his money and join the circus and do really cool acts with used snot rags. These films have directors of high profile but only the first two seem to be rewarding. Predictable circumstances include one's announcement that an alien inhabits him and that it will burst out his chest. They might as well have a welcoming committee ready. Sigourney Weaver was a great trooper in Alien and Aliens but now she is basically showing up for the job. Winona Ryder reduces the android to a moron the moment she opens her mouth. They should have added a laugh track just for her scenes. Ron Pearlman, Dan Hedaya and Michael Wincott play fast food and finger licking good to monster aliens. This film is about the ominous dangers of bad screen writing. Score: 1 / 10
