Aliens review

Rating: 8/10 (5 June 2016)

Aliens is the sequel to the 1979 Ridley Scott film 'Alien' I wouldn't say this film was quite as good as the original 'Alien' but it still definitely worth a watch. It follows on well, set the same amount of years since the first one came out. (7 years) This film is Directed by James Cameron (The Terminator, Titanic) and stars Sigourney Weaver again as Ellen Ripley, with supporting cast of Michael Biehn (The Terminator) Bill Paxton (Titanic) Lance Hnerikson (The Terminator) All James Cameron films. James Cameron has the same sort of style to his movies, and it seems that he likes to work with the same sort of people. For example, Arnold Schwarzeneggar (The Terminator, Terminator 2, True Lies) All James Cameron pictures. Michael Biehn (The Terminator, Terminator 2 (uncredited) Aliens) All James Cameron pictures. And Bill Paxton (The Terminator, True Lies, Aliens, Titanic) All James Cameron. Aliens is a great sequel to Alien, and is thought to be just as good as the first Alien movie. In my opinion, i prefer the first Alien just a little bit more. I like it more because of the creepy build up. When they find the egg and we don't know what's going to happen as it's the first time you see the Alien, In this film we've already seen the Aliens, so we know what to expect. The only downfall of the film i'd say is that it was a little rushed, the Aliens came in too soon, and there were loads of them. In the first film, the Alien was really hard to kill (impossible to kill) in this film, they were killing off the Aliens as if it was as easy as stepping on an ant. I think Ridley Scott thought that through really well with Alien, and made it a lot more darker than the sequel. Even though James Cameron's Aliens was still very dark in it's own way, But my favourite of his work definitely still stands as the original Terminator (1984)
