Waow! still amazed by it

Rating: 10/10 (22 March 2014)

This is remarkable sci-fi movie, utterly brilliant! I watched it in my teens, loved it, and now i made my kids (11 and 7) watch it with me, boy how impressed were they! my daughter who already saw it few times said she hasn't had a minute of relief! that's how she felt, always on the alert for the next move. My boy could not take his eyes off the screen, you may think what kind of parent am i to let a 7yo watch a movie of this intensity? i do think it was okay for him, at the end of the movie i asked if he was scared, he said no, that he knew it was only 'fiction'. We watched it on TV with ads and stuff, he couldn't wait between each break lol. Sigourney Weaver is the ultimate heroine, the fighter, the badass, i wish they could do more movies with women as the hero! All the actors played splendidly, I've always been a fan of Michael Biehn, Bill Paxton impressed and amused me with his role of the scared, ironical talking soldier, the girl who played Vasquez was badass as well, top notch really. The chemistry between the little girl and Ripley was so touching, almost palpable. We absolutely loved Aliens!
