Best of the Alien films

Rating: Null/10 (3 December 2011)

After the snooze fest and disappointment of Alien3, there was no where to go but up for the Alien franchise.
Alien:Resurrection is a vastly underrated sci-fi thriller that seems to hit all the right marks. It's scary, it's action packed, it's humorous, and it's respectful to the series cannon. Weaver is top notch and Ron Pearlman is great as the one liner tough guy. The film is pretty gory too...maybe the goriest of the series.
The series went back to the James Cameron style of Alien...lots of action, lots of guns, and lots of special effects. I found myself having a great experience watching the film and was constantly entertained.
It's not as bad as some reviewers make it out to be. Yeah, Rider is a little dead pan but she's still pretty enough to look at. Resurrection is the easiest Alien film to enjoy, and in my opinion, the most entertaining.
