Ratings and reviews

Always great to re-watch this movie in ALL its glory I liked the extra footage. I'm just a little aggrivated that James Cameron's "custom intro" which I thought was part of what I paid for, is not there. Get your act together google, paying customers should get what the description says they're getting for their money. Not happy.

This was the last good pretty much thing that is in the Alien franchise, until Alien Isolation came along. Now it's the same good things that were in the first movie, atmospheric pacing, not so much subtlety but it's still there and being outnumbered. The only thing I didn't really like about it was how you could be an eager trigger finger with the Xenomorphs, didn't have as much tension as the first, but still a blast to watch.

Another great success of 20th century fox. This one was a little less great than the original one, but then again, still great! Sigourney weaver does great again as Ellen Ripley after not even wanting to reprise the role. Bill Paxton was great, along with the other actors/actresses. Definitely worth watches. According to the first one, I haven't watched this one as much as the first. I probably have seen the first one about 5-10 times. This one has been watched several times by me, and I still love it.
