What a breathtaking sequel to such a science-fiction classic. Sigourney Weaver delivers such a riveting and powerful performance as Ellen Ripley and James Cameron...well he is in one word; awesome.

Maybe the most exciting movie ever made. And all Call of Duty 4 fans (including myself) need to thank James Cameron. Without this movie, that game doesn't exist.

A Sequel that out shines the original!!

The first film was impressive, scary, and had my heart racing with adrenaline. This film carries the same intensity as its prequel, but this film broadens with not only its spookiness, but also with its amazing grandeur of of a new leap in visual effects. In its time, the first film had great effects, not to judge, but it was a bit on the hokey side. But with this sequel, even in my opinion till today's standards, it has awesome visual effects. The director, James Cameron, easily among the most inspiring directors of all time, captures such a story like aliens with a combination of horror, and visual effects that look real and captivating. Sigourney Weaver, plays once again as Ripley, delivering an even better performance than the first, which she received an Oscar nom for. Awakening 57 y...

Aliens

Yes this is one of the best sequels around but is it better than the first movie? It is, and it isn't. Frankly its not fair to compare. Alien was a horror film, this one is an action film. But what glorious action. Its loud, its butch, its war and its fantastic!!

Better than Alien.

This is a spellbinding, jaw-dropping epic of a movie masterpiece that pulls off the rarest of feats -- it actually tops its predecessor, the inimitable "Alien", even going so far as to make it look the slightest bit campy and predictable by comparison (though it still remains a groundbreaking, chilling, landmark science fiction/horror classic).

"Aliens" interweaves competing themes and juxtaposes action, character development, suspense, cameraderie, fear and heroism brilliantly. The movie is far more multi-faceted than the original, which surpassed it on the horror and suspense fronts only. "Aliens" adds doses of realism to make the entire viewing experience seem more "human" -- the Hudson whining at times seems ad-libbed, the dialogue is unmatched in a movie of its genre and the heroi...
