Different than the first Alien movies

Rating: 9/10 (25 February 2011)

If it is entertainment, spectacle and thrill you are after then you will be disappointed - at least when you compare it with Alien and Aliens. This is a movie with a message - a deeply disturbing, pessimistic message delivered in a forceful way. It says that mankind has lost its way and that there is not much difference between us and those aliens.
I did not like the film when I first saw it - maybe because I was a blissfully ignorant optimist then. But it has grown on me over the years and has become one of my favorite movies.
Whether you like this movie or not - it will leave lasting impressions.
