I was entertained. I was rather disappointed though, as they picked a format closer to the Predator series than the Alien series. There was not nearly enough suspense or mystery.
The action scenes (however few) were rather cool, every one entirely worth the $8.95 I spent getting in. But...
I'm pretty sure the first Alien movies were British productions, and should have stayed as such, but this one has been far too Americanized for my liking:
All the artistic flavor, suspense, plot and mystery had been liquidated, making way for a watered down, cliche action-based plot-line, with all the moves and catch phrases to match. The choice of heroes was to my liking, as I am partial to that particular brand of human (plus she was hot) but the execution was not all I had hoped. A more well known actor would not have done the trick, but I don't think the character was writtin in quite properly.
I'm falling asleep while writing so I'll bed and let someone reply. (Trail off....)
What did you all think?
