Not sure what to make of it.

Rating: 4/10 (17 October 2012)

I am a big fan of Ridley Scott & am a big fan of the alien movies but to be honest this film confused me. i found it impossible to have any kind of sympathy for the characters & when characters were killed off i actually enjoyed watching them die as it meant i would,not have to see them on screen again. The action set-pieces are exactly what id expect from Ridley Scott- awesome. As an action movie i would have rated it higher but as im rating this as part of the alien franchise i have to say i am disappointed. The DVD re-cut is supposed to answer the questions that this film left unanswered such as the ending,( the ending on this version tbh confused the hell outta me ). And apparently there's a supposed tie-in to Bladerunner in this movie (oh god, pls say its not so). so to sum up...If you are in the mood to just sit back & watch an action movie then this movie is great for you & there are worse ways to waste 2 hrs but if you are like me & love the alien movies then i think you will be disappointed so get the DVD & pray the alternate cut is what this movie was supposed to be.
