If you want to scream - it's too late...

Rating: 8/10 (8 April 2003)

A sequel fabricated merely one year after James Cameron's 'The Terminator' also scores another role for Michael Biehn (Kyle Reese) as Hicks - leading this fresh offensive against these classic fiends with more firepower than any other of the Alien films. This particular film is characterised by suspense, darkness and fear (yet less than Ridley Scott's groundbreaking original)- with the twist of a devastating arsenal. This is one of the most successful sequels ever, seconded only by The Godfather Part II and Cameron's second cyborg flick - Terminator 2. If you enjoyed the original Alien and Terminator 2, I believe that this is a superb hybrid!
