Rating: 4 stars
Summary: New type in Alien series
Review: I am big fan of Alien series indeed. This movie is hard to explain. It is mostly very nice. But depends so much how you look and think about it. It is similar to last part, Alien 3 that way, that it is again much different to earlier alien series. Like taking more ways to go. In fact i feel it is shifted more separate movie to away of series. Hih. Maybe movie company wants more ways to earn money so it dont look so same in future in part 100, just kidding. I hope that there is going to be Alien 5. This movie series is very good example how retain enough good taste in long continued movie row. So many movies have ruined because making "money hunter" parts after one really good. This Alien Resurrection also have nice effects and environment. By actors, first i scared this movie that it is gone because there is Winona Ryder. I tought that she wouldnt never fit in this type of movie. But it was very big positive surprise after i looked this first time. Ryder is just fitting well to this movie. In last words, it is maybe also too much to expect from these after parts because original Alien was so spectacular and scary movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Maybe it gives you the wrong idea
Review: I really like the "Alien"-movies and Sigourney Weaver -she's great. This movie is really different than the others - allthree great. Jean Pierre Jeunet has a really wicked sense of humor -a little bit edgy. Love the part where Ripley pushes her hand on Call her knife. And there is a lot of humor in this movie. Sigourney Weaver is great as Ripley # 8. Okay, she's a little bit weird, but she's still the big-time female hero of all times. . . I heard about Winona taking over the series. Oh please, no - she has a limited point of view, that woman. She misunderstood "AlienĀ³" completly - someone like that can't take over the "Alien"-series.

Summary: One of the worst alien films ever made.
Review: Number one this movie was a flop number two this has been done before , number 3 we hope there will be no Alien 5.And number 4 this is worse then Alien3 and even thats not saying much, terrible excuse for alien movie waste of tax dollars.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: TRY NOT TO REMEMBER THIS MOVIE ONLY REMEMBER THE OTHERS.
Review: 1. This movie is unlike the others the others where great they should get 5 stars.

2. When you cloan a person it begiens as a baby that ruins how the other movies where beliweble.

3. Sigourney should be THE ONLY LEAD PART

4. The aliens where showd to much and behaved difrently (started screaming like T-rex in Jurasic park)

5. The white alien was wery wery wery wery bad

6. Characters are boaring

7. Ripley is now the terminator (Not Weavers folt shes a great actress)

8. How can a person breath so long in the water.

9. The alien started spitting assit out of its mouth

10. Action scenes where boaring.

I did not like this movie but i loved the others, allthoug it was okay when the scientist was watching the aliens but still the aliens should not be showd that much. I rate it 1 or 2 stars i guess just 2.

(do not write enghliss wery well.

Summary: Worst Alien ever
Review: I think the 'Alien' Movie was the best ever, the atmosphere was the best of all four Alien Movies. 2nd was just like an ordinary Action Film. #3 was not that bad, it was mor like 'Alien'. But then the fourth movie was really something different, this is not a classical 'Alien' it's more an ugly Horror Movie with many unnecessary and in my opinion ugly scenes. I think the story itself would not be too bad, but why did the director had to show everything, that has been hidden in older Alien Movies. You know what happens without seeing 'bloody' scene. Conclusion: My ranking of the Alien movies: 'Alien', Alien 3, Alien 4, 'Aliens'

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: I guess it would scare 6 year olds...
Review: But it just isn't scary enough to be an 18 certificate. Also, the movie is confusing and, whilst making you jump a couple of times, is more funny than scary.

I guess it's the gore and bad language that makes it an 18, but if you took all that out it would be a 12.

The acting is good, but it doesn't really have a proper beginning or end.

Rent PHANTOMS instead.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Ripley's Strange Return
Review: Alien Resurrection picks up after the gloomy ending of Alien 3 albeit 200 years later. This forth entry is directed by Frenchman Jean-Pierre Jeaunet. The results are incredibly mixed. The story, Ripley's blood/DNA, taken from the hospital ward of the prison colony, is used to create a clone of her former self. Aboard a military science vessel, where now the Alien species are being bred by some deranged scientists, a group of smugglers are hired to provide "bodies" for these disturbing actions.

Sigourney Weaver is haunting and rather creepy as this new Ripley who has Alien DNA and a "relationship" with the creatures. Winona Ryder is Call, a renegade and obsolete android who's a recent addition of the space pirates, that get more than they bargained for on this delivery. Fittingly Ripley and Call show the most human character despite their strange background. Most of the other characters are nothing more than bait for the Aliens. Dominique Pinon as the crippled pirate is an exception.

Being there are few surprises, this film works better as a Sci-fi/horror adventure film. The story itself is worthy and interesting but underdeveloped. Too much time is spent on the gory attacks. There are too many unnecessary characters as well.

The production design and special effects are first rate. The Alien effects by Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff Jr. are among the film's biggest problems. Their Alien creatures lack all of the creepy and elegant work that H.R Giger and Stan Winston so vividly created on the first two films. Way too much slime and gore is thrown at the audience here. The grotesque newborn alien is bizarre and very slimy.

Alien Resurrection is certainly a strange entry of the Alien films. Certainly not nearly as good as the first two, but it does work better than Alien 3. The open and ambiguous ending does allow for another film. If so.. H.R. Giger and a great story are mandatory for it to work.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Huge dissapointment thanks to Joss Wheedon
Review: Jean-Pierre Jeuent is still a master even after this bomb. The problme with this movie isnt the directing or the acting...its the boring story. A 2 hours alien movie with about 4 alien encounters...no thanx. Its seems as if Joss just breezed throught the script and let it go. The scene were the Aliens escape is a prime example.....Aliens escape, Marines evacuate..scene over...Were's the battle were's the suspense..were are the aliens. A nice 20 minute aliens battle scene right there would have made the movie 50% better....oh yeah and the "baby" was a horrible idea that couldnt bee done any beter then it was.

Rating: 1 stars
