Summary: If you don't buy this, I will hear you scream!
Review: Two movies which need no explanation, plus the others of the acid dripping franchise. Scotts classic original, Cameron's masterful sequel and the other two films. But there is still hope: Alien 3 can be enjoyed for the early director-stylings or David Fincher (Fight Club, Se7en)and Resurrection makes a fine coaster for hot or cold beverages.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: These are the best sci-fi movies you'll ever see
Review: These four movies represent what goes "bump" in the middle of the night. Sigourney Weever brings Elen Ripley Alive in all four episdoes. The suspense scenes are the best you'll ever see. Not to mention that on DVD surround sound, they sound pretty awsome. I would have to say Aliens is the best of the four.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Suspense out the wazoo with great sound!
Review: You know if you're a fan of the Alien series... there's no inbetwen with these movies. This collection is perfect for you and I highly reccomend stepping up and buying the collection instead of getting them separately. The single best quality of this set is the sound. The THX intro sounds amazing on a nice surround setup and the effects couldn't be cooler. You know you want it, trust me, it's worth it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Alien Legacy - A dream come true
Review: Have you ever seen ALIEN or one off the others? No, well BUY it! At last the complete 4 movies in a box packing Horror and action. A must for the S.F. lover.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The legacy will now never die it be charished forever.
Review: In 1979 a movie was made that would change the face of science fiction forever.Sure Star Wars did a great and incredible presence for science ficton but Ridley Scotts: ALIEN took science ficton to an darker and diffrent level. H.R.Gigers creature is haunting itself and morbid enough to give anyone bad nightmares for many dreams to come.

The set design awsome the alien ship is dark and harsh.Our hero Ripley is a normal woman but is as tough as she is emotional and the perfect match for the creature to deal with.But in Aliens we see that Ripley must face her fears and let go of her past that she ended it.She must confront a creature so terrifying at the end that if she dosen't that there will be more to face.And in Alien 3 we see that it is the most darkest and grousome of the Legacy we see that she didn't completly wipe out all of them but this alien is unlike any before faster more keener but ripley is prepared but she may not be prepared for her fate.In Alien Ressurection is the exubrant final act Ripley is back and she has been cloned but along with her more aliens they must stop them before thay get to earth.

This Legacy is the best DVD collection you will ever buy you will get to see clips from the movies deleted scenes.Everything you could ever want to know about this incredible science ficton legacy is here capture it now and forever.

Summary: Theme.
Review: For Alien fans this is it, it's all here in one package. It's a great package even though most people feel that Alien 3 and Alien: Resurrection were not the best of the four. However, I'd like to ask anyone if they've watched the movies back to back and detected a theme? I felt that the movies represent the cycle of life. For example: Alien (Ripley's birth), Aliens (Ripley with family), Alien 3 (Ripley dies), Alien: Resurrection (Ripley in the afterlife). Is it just me, or does there seem to be evidence? Anyway, this is a great series, and hopefully they won't make any more sequels and ruin the series. This is a must have box set for any film collector.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great remastering picture and sound.
Review: I don`t give the whole alien movies five stars but the DVD version with THX Sound and Picture is the best about The Alien Legacy Edition.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: BUY THIS MOVIE NOW
Review: This is the dream of any fan, and not fans, is the best Package, that you can buy, the DVD are great, The movies are excellent, maybe the 3 not is too good, but is more above the average of the movies of this type, The Extras are the most incredible, because every movie has his own extras, The menu are terrific, you never will se Menus like This. The SOUND and IMAGE, ARE THX certified, then you have the most incredible experience, you fell like the Aliens are in you room. Buy this pack and you never will fell disapointed.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Still the best movies ever, but what about the extras?
Review: Wow, this packet really ROCKS! I have only one problem: on the first disc, Alien, you get: commentary, 2 audio tracks, TONS of pictures, outtakes, deleted scenes... and on the fourth disc for instance: a featurette and trailers... well, i would better like some artwork, storyboard, or even deleted scenes, SOMETHING! But this cannot change my overall opinion... and the 3D menu of Alien... simply ROCKS!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The promise of DVD realized: a must-own.
Review: You're not reading this for a critical review of the movies; if you haven't seen the movies, you've been living under a rock for the last 20 years (in which case you should rent them, then buy this set). You're reading this because you want to know if this set is worth owning.

Yes, yes, and yes. Simply put, this is the best usage of DVD to date. Picture quality and sound are outstanding, and that's just the beginning. What makes these discs shine is all the attention that was put into the extra goodies on the discs themselves. Pop in the Aliens disc, and the menu is as if you're watching one of the Marines' helmet cameras, investigating the lost colony. Put in Alien and you'll be traveling down the famous claustrophobia corridors of the Nostromo choosing your options. After seeing these you'll take a different point of view on a lot of your other DVD's, once you witness how good they could have been but aren't.

On these discs there's deleted footage, commentaries, theatrical trailers, making-of documentaries, and too much more to name here (although, if you once owned the Aliens laserdisc, there isn't quite all the stuff there was on that version, like Cameron's script drafts and other written material).

A feast for fans. The best DVD purchase I've ever made, and a rediscovery of the old Alien magic. Highly recommended.
