Review:
What a movie!
Did not expect it to be so good. The visual effects and the Alien and ts accompanying elements designed by H.R. Geiger was just magnificent.
This movie is a perfect blend of Science Fiction and Horror. There have been many movies of homicidal Aliens running about targeting a group people. This movie stands out. This is a truly wonderful movie with “The Sci-Fi Queen” Sigourney Weaver in the lead role. In those days no one would have expected Sigourney to be playing the lead.
The other actors also acted very well. The story was also well written. The movie keeps the audience on their toes. That’s because the alien attacks from any where. The end was awesome when the alien is in the escape pod. I thought that after throwing the cat, it would have left the escape pod. This is a true classic Sci-fi movie.
If you love horror and sci-fi then this is the movie for you!
Final Verdict:
9/10
**Note: I have planned to watch the whole Alien Anthology in one day i.e. 14th April 2012. The reviews may arrive late.. 🙂
