Five bags of popcorn...and a little xenomorph

Rating: 10/10 (18 October 2016)

Anyone who had the privilege to see this film in theatres knows that Aliens is one of the funnest rides in film history. "Alien" was a great accomplishment and a very good movie as well, but its horror and suspense takes a long time to develop. It centralizes on weak, pretentious characters that make it so you don't care whether they live or die, taking away from the potency of the film. Aliens cuts all of the *beep*. In Aliens, Weaver essentially acts as a female "Rambo". The badass weapons, set design and crazy, previously unthinkable action sequences make Aliens the insane roller-coaster ride through monsters in space that it is.
