Hughe J @Hughe Jan 4 Alien Resurrection was released in theatres in 1997 and again stars Sigourney Weaver as Ellen Ripley with Winona Ryder and Ron Perlman supporting. The film takes place 200 years after Alien 3 where Ripley killed herself to prevent an Alien Queen from being born. On board the military science vessel Auriga they have cloned Ripley as well as an Alien Queen, who has begun laying eggs. Naturally the aliens get loose and everyone starts dying while the cast makes snarky comments. Some of the action scenes were decent but a lot of the CGI was terrible, most of the acting was as well, and we get the worst looking Alien ever seen in cinema. Resurrection is likely also the worst looking Alien movie since everything looks washed out and it has a weird color palette. Finally, it doesn't feel like an Alien film but more of a Marvel movie complete with stupid comedy and dumb action. Still, while it's not great, or even good, at least it's different from the other Alien movies.

Tolta questa scelta discutibile, il film corre spedito sui binari della fantascienza senza di fatto mai esplorare novità narrative ma limitandosi ad un classico gioco ad eliminazione dei personaggi fino al climax finale. Come nei precedenti capitoli, proprio i personaggi tendono ad invecchiare precocemente a causa dei loro comportamenti esagerati e delle movenze eccessive che rendono tutto troppo recitato in vero stile anni '80. Un film di cui non c'era bisogno ma che quanto meno resta divertente ed adrenalinico. See more William M Nov 19 Hadn't watched it since it came out but it is SO much better than I remember. Another great chapter to the Alien franchise. Much better than Alien 3 or the prequels. Sigourney Weaver is great as usual, as was Winona Ryder. The writing & directing was top notch, the practical effects have aged well. Thrills and Chills. Leaves me wanting more. See more Stathis K Nov 16 Story: 8/10 – A darker, sci-fi horror twist on the series. The cloning plot adds new stakes and ethical dilemmas, though the story sometimes feels overcomplicated. Visuals / Atmosphere: 9/10 – The futuristic ship and alien designs are detailed and unsettling. The environments feel both sterile and claustrophobic, perfectly fitting the series’ tone. Action / Suspense: 8.5/10 – Plenty of intense alien encounters and action sequences. Some set pieces are over-the-top, but still thrilling. Soundtrack / Sound Design: 8.5/10 – John Frizzell’s score enhances the suspense and horror. Alien sounds remain iconic and terrifying. Performances: 8.5/10 – Sigourney Weaver returns as Ripley, now hardened and more complex. The supporting cast delivers solid performances, though some characters are underused. Overall: 8.5/10 See more Rock L Nov 16 this movie was so bad i had to watch it twice. idk how anyone could defend it. enjoyed it a lot more the second time having lowered my expectations. idk why some movies are like that. this director rules but doing an alien movie is weird to me for him.
