Does anybody care about the story and not just the action!

Rating: 10/10 (14 June 2005)

This movie is 100% sci-fi gold. So why do all these so called movie fans bother watching these films, when all their interested in is the action scenes. Remember cinematic entertainment is a form of art and like all art it depends on the viewers tastes. If you like non-stop action films, go watch Jackie Chan, Steven Seagal or Van Damme and don't complain about movies with back-story explanation or slightly more dialogue than you would like. For some people this is important to the feel of the movie and part of it's charm.
Anyway back to the film in question. Ripley is revived from her cryo-chamber to discover that she is being held responsible for the destruction of the Nostromo and the death of it's crew (Alien), despite all tales of the creature with acid for blood. Soon though THE COMPANY lose contact with an out-post of Terra-formers situated on the planet where the trouble all started (LB426). The Xeno-morphs (Aliens) are suspected and Ripley (Being the only surviving person to have encountered the creatures), is recruited as adviser on a mission she knows is doomed. This film is an excellent sequel to a great movie and the second in a highly memorable series of films.
