Very Disappointing

Rating: 3/10 (21 July 2012)

Alien was a great movie that took us into unknown territory or should I say another territory that was not what one would expect.
This movie is poor in execution, poor in plot development and poor in acting. What was Ridley Scott thinking of when he put this together other than a way to make some more money to support his next big experiment. And he seems to give the viewer little credit for brains and attention to details.
The movie does a poor job of explaining any real logic to the mission and the characters going on the mission. And it goes down hill from there. All of the nonsense around destroying the earth to make it better for them. It made no sense. While I like Sci-Fi movies I like them to have some plausibility - this one has none. There are too many holes that can be shot into any logic around the plot, the characters and the purpose of the mission.
Long Live Sigorney Weaver and Alien
