Mostly Watch This Movie At Night, Mostly

Rating: 8/10 (27 April 2017)

Unlike the first film, which is mainly a horror/suspense film, ALIENS is a balls out action movie. I think I actually enjoy this movie slightly more than the original. The character of Ripely is more flushed out and she goes full on badass in this movie. I also liked the supporting characters in this movie more so than the first. Likely because the adrenaline levels are turned up and the characters can be more colorful (or colourful in Canadian!). This is a review of the theatrical version, as I have yet to see the directors cut. Overall, this is one of the best action movies ever made. Recommended for those that enjoy aliens, aliens killing people, people killing aliens, aliens laying eggs, creepy children, underhanded corporate douches, underhanded corporate douches getting their comeuppance, Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Forklifts, badass marines dudes, badass marine ladies, android parlour tricks...
8/10
...but that's just like, my opinion, man
