Aliens is slow paced but in the end pays off.

Rating: 6/10 (8 August 2009)

Aliens is not perfect. Contrary to belief it is though, Aliens directed by Terminator man James Cameron sees our favorite Xenomorph busting hero Ellen Ripley return. The story is through maybe first 40 to 50 minutes is slow paced and boring. But, then around the last hour or so the action picks up and you have a facehugger here and a facehugger there and everywhere, plus Xenomorphs who just don't want to seem to die. In the end as usual Ripley sets off a self destruct mechanism for the ship she is on and has "so and so" amount of time to get out. Well, this time she has a couple of friends accompanying her and by that i also mean the Queen Xenomorph. So, we finally meet the mother behind all of this and well frankly she puts up a damn good fight, she even manages to follow Ripley off the ship and fights Ripley to the death. At the end though you have the same ending, Ripley fights big alien and alien gets sucked into the space vacuum, very simple. Overall I'd advise you to watch Alien first and if you liked RENT Aliens. Bottom Line, rent this first, you may be disappointed.
