Wonderful Movie! Awesome Action, Cameron's Best In My Opinion!

Rating: 10/10 (23 June 2005)

This movie is absolutely terrific! Wonderful! In my opinion it's Cameron's Best Film! Whenever I see it, I just have to smile. I personally like this better than Alien. Granted, I love 'em both, but when push comes to shove, (you got to do what you love) I like Aliens better. I just like the style better. But, in my opinion, Alien was scarier, but Aliens I felt had more depth to it. What with the characters. The relationship with Ripley and Newt as well as Ripley and Hicks was very strong, and I felt added more to the depth of the film. Which I thought was great. For me it is impossible to not like Newt. She's just too innocent, and Hicks was just awesome, a real great guy, which made the opening of Alien 3 hard on me, to see them just get killed like bugs. I liked the distrust with Ripley to Bishop, but it's kind of a shame that as soon as she trusts him, BOOM! He's ripped in half. Gorman was so cowardly it was funny, but he redeemed himself in the end, Hudson was just so whiny and hilarious! EG, "Game over, man! It's game over!" But he wasn't whiny like Lambert in Alien. She was annoying. He was funny. Vasquez was cool, once she got her head. Up until the drop ship crash, she was a little to sure of herself. And it was a little sad to see Drake die, and Vasquez shout "NO!" from the APC. Burke was such a slime ball it was kinda funny, and the rest of the characters were kinda dust in the wind. It kind of seemed like Hicks and Frost were friends, but they never really implemented it. Ferro was too stubborn, hence her letting the alien on board, thus causing the drop ship crash, and the rest were pretty much no-liners. But nonetheless, this is a great movie, and if you like action or sci-fi, or just movies in general, see it!
