Great Sci-Fi/Horror Film. Though not as 'INCREDIBLE' as I was expecting it to be, This movie was fresh and original, but a simplified plot. Make a sci-fi flick. Put an Alien in it. Throw in Ridley Scott to direct and you got a damn good movie.
The Alien character was an incredible design, and films after had taken the design and used it in their movies, with slight alterations. That's how well this creature was done.
Too Bad Ridley hasn't made any decent movies 'imo' since say the Alien series and some others, but his new stuff isn't as capturing as this one was.
Characters were pretty good, some were done very well, where as Ripley is flat like Cardboard. Wish that character wuld expand it probably would have boosted this up .5.
Great Film, all Sci-Fi Film Lovers should give it a look.
