One of the absolute best movies ever made

Rating: Null/10 (19 June 1999)

The second film about Ripley, is undeniably the best of the four films made. The first one, will always be a classic, but the stroke of art is James Cameron's Aliens (1986). Everything is perfect, the characters, the setting, the build-up, the cast, the direction, the effects, the action, and first and foremost; the impact. After seeing the movie over and over again, you always want more. Even the special edition wasn't long enough. You curse the awful third movie from preventing the magic and impact from Aliens from ever returning. No brighter did it look when the fourth movie came along, but at least this time it was a watchable film.
Of course we all know that the reason that the movie was as superb as it was, is because it's director's name is James Cameron. The man has proved himself a superb action director, and hopefully we will see more sci-fi movies from him, as they seem to be his best movies. (While Titanic is great entertainment, it doesn't even compare to Aliens or Terminator.)
