Story:

The planet from Alien has been colonized, but contact is lost. This time, the rescue team has impressive firepower, but will it be enough?

Review:

This one is better than the previous one. As soon as I started seeing this movie, I saw my self drawing comparisons to James Cameron’s Avatar. For example, those mechanised things used to lift the loads is similar to those used in Avatar as battle suits.
There was one problem for me was that, the meeting at the start of the movie went on for three hours right? In that time, didn’t the colonisation of LV-426? I’m just asking. Shouldn’t that have come up in a three-hour long meeting??

It was an amazing movie otherwise. There was a change in the tone of the movie from Sci-fi Horror to Sci-Fi Action.
The acting was brilliant and the background score was good too.

This too is a must watch for Sci-fi lovers.

Now only Aliens 3 and Alien Resurrection left in my Alien Anthology.

Final Verdict:
9/10.
