Sci Fi redux

Rating: 8/10 (7 June 2012)

The motivation for this review is to counter some negative reviews that have reduced this movie down to criticisms of plot holes, and character development.
Really the characters are no less believable than Aliens 3 gung-ho marines, recall the tough Latin female with red bandana? What exactly made sense about space-marines hunting aliens who sounded as though they were recruited from the local hood gansta crew, and with about as much training as a grunt ready for the meat grinder.
Plot holes, really? This is a movie, since when do movies have to make sense? Everybody opens the door to find the bad guy standing outside with axe in hand (substitute bad guy for alien, or monster or psycho).
I loved this movie. Take no notice of the plebs who voted this down. This is a worthy entrant to the Alien universe.
