    Alien Resurrection

    ★★½

    By no means is this a good movie, however I didn’t hate it. The special effects were much better in this one compared to Alien 3, and the story’s goofy but was entertaining nevertheless. I’ve actually found the more ridiculous the series gets the more fun I have for just enjoying the ride. From a creative standpoint this isn’t a good movie, that much is clear. Also the new alien in the last portion of the movie was actually pretty…

    This movie is horribly good (well decent). There are so many issues, special effects are horrible, acting isn’t great, and I also don’t like the tone of the movie. The story is wacky but I enjoyed it for some odd reason. It’s entertaining somehow. I recognize in terms of moviemaking Aliens is better than this entry, but in terms of holding my attention this one succeeded.

    Maybe I’m picky, but this movie is hailed a classic and I don’t see the appeal. While the film improves in terms of characters in this entry, the runtime is way too long and I didn’t like the feel of it. This entry feels more like a militia action movie rather than a horror movie about aliens. Maybe that’s what people enjoy about it however, I feel this isn’t the tone the series should have resorted to. Also some of the acting was poor even in comparison to the acting in the first film.

    A lack of score, and character development are the only elements that keep this movie from having a higher rating. The plot and special effects are terrific! Overall, this film is a classic (along with its sequel) however I didn’t share the same enthusiasm for the film as the majority of the population.
