Fart shameful comedy

Rating: 2/10 (5 January 2007)

I cannot believe this movie belongs to the Alien saga! This movie generates the same feeling that comes to you when you watch Terminator 3 or Matrix Reloaded: SHAME.
I do not know how to start. OK. To make a perfect Ripley's clone containing the alien queen in her chest 200 years after Ripley's death, and only having her DNA is just plain implausible from the start, even knowing this is sci-fi.
200 years after... and ships, weapons, clothes, everything look the same as before! No, wait, there are synthetic whiskey and breath identification! Laughable! But it seems they made a comedy on purpose! There are cartoon/comic elements everywhere: These ricochet bullets guns attached to the arms, a guy in wheelchair singing "Popeye" song, the crazy scientist playing stupidly with the alien thru a glass, a guy taking off a part of his head and watching it after the alien attacked him, etc. I thought I was watching a "Roadrunner" episode.
What director and writers were thinking when they made this garbage? ALIEN IS NOT A COMEDY FOR HEAVEN SAKE! What the other 3 directors built in years fell down in a second with this Alien Resurrection.
More! Ripley is not the Ripley you used to love, she is a clone and also part alien, OK, but she is rude, violent and cold, and smiles stupidly. Who can feel empathy for a character like this? In fact, you cannot feel anything for ANY character in this film. The only good character is the pirate captain but he disappeared too soon.
These aliens are not menacing like in the previous films. You can see too much of them, that makes the horror disappear. And there are also many plot holes. To make matters worse there is a new queen, with a womb... They say Ripley gave her a human reproductive system. Didn't you know a human reproductive system is more than a womb? And the queen is giving birth, but if it is a human reproductive system where is the father? Also the newborn is laughable and disgusting, far far far away from the Giger concept. And this newborn kills the queen just with a blow? What kind of queen is that?
Winona Ryder deserves a special paragraph. How did they cast her in this movie? This midget cannot appear in a sci-fi movie! Probably it was to add more comedy like giant & midget from a circus, just see how stupid she looks when she appears close to the tall Ripley.
This movie gives Alien saga a bad name.
