A Fantastic Film! A Review By: Barry G.

Rating: 10/10 (14 May 2004)

Well what can I say, James Cameron has truly done an excellent job of turning Ridley Scott's horror classic, Alien, into a high voltage action thriller! This amazing sequel has everything, and I mean everything that a movie fan would want to see in a movie. First of all, there are amazing performances from an all-star cast lead by Sigourney Weaver, who by the way was nominated for best actress for this movie. Second of all, the visual effects are suberb even by today's standards, and lastly this movie is great because it is directed by James Cameron. I mean who's better to direct a science-fiction action movie other than James Cameron (he certainly proved himself in this movie and in the Terminator movies). Just like in The Terminator, James has succeeded in making a wonderful movie! Of course James did have a little help from his friends to make this movie. Stan Winston has done an equally good job of designing the acid-spitting monsters in this movie, the aliens. Above all else, this movie rocks because it has the one, the only Queen Alien in it. The Queen Alien is even more terrorfying than the other alien drones, she is one big egg-laying machine! By the way, this is the one with the awesome fight between Ripley and the Queen Alien! So the bottom line is; go see Aliens and I bet you that you'll be hooked on this epic movie forever!
