Rating: 10/10 (13 May 2004)

I am Barry G. and for those of you who don't already know, I am a huge , and I mean huge fan of the epic "Alien" movies series. So read my review and then see the movie! James Cameron has done an excellent job of turning Ridley Scott's horror classic ,"Alien", into an edge of your seat thriller! In this sequel, Ripley, who survived her encounter with the alien in the original, is found floating in space by a deep salvage team. Later, Ripley is brought before a court and questioned as to why she destroyed the ship the Nostromo in the first film. Ripley tells her story to the court, however, the court does not believe her story about the acid-spitting alien, and further more decrees her unfit to hold a license as a Warrent Officer. The court does start to believe Ripley's story though, after they lose contact with colonists on the planet where the alien is from. They tell Ripley to go to the planet with marines to see what is wrong on the planet, and in return they promise to give back Ripley her Warrent Officer license. She decides to accompany the marines to the planet and the rest is movie history! This is a great sequel that is better than all of the other "Alien" movie sequels.
I, as well as many other movie critics, agree that Aliens is a sequel that is different from, but equal to the original. Once you see this movie you'll be hooked on it as well as all the other "Alien" movies in this terrific series. By the way, this is the one where Ripley has a daring fight with the Queen Alien in one of the most famous scenes in movie history!
