ALIEN : RESURRECTION (DIDIER BECU)

Rating: 6/10 (11 November 2003)

What do you do when in the final sequel (Alien 3)commander Ripley ( Sigourney Weaver) is dead and you wanna make an other sequel? You just clone her, simple as that. The big thing is of course can Alien 4 give us something that hasn't been showed before. I think not... Alien 4 would have been a brilliant movie if the other three weren't around but now it's just a sort of rip-off from a rip-off. But still the movie works and not in the least because it's been directed by Jeunet (maker of Amelie Poulain) as some special effects (the one in where Ripley enters the lab) are superb and it's always nice to see Winona Ryder back as well. It's time they stop but Alien 4 can be added to the list though.
