Aliens

The character development, the world building, the action, the horror, the comedy, the visuals, the stunts, the acting, the script, the plot, the ideas, the parallels, the pace, the score, the sound design, the costume design, the practical effects, the casting, the absolute thrill and genius behind this masterpiece is mindblowing. I find it hard to compare to number one because this is totally different. The mystery remains and, by the end, only grows. Sigourney absolutely smashes it as Ripley. The trauma, motherhood, and protectorship went hard, and I loved it.

Great sequel. More really good worldbuilding. The cringe part for me was mainly the highly typecast military people. But Ripley is still absolutely killing it. Makes you root for her wholeheartedly.

“Get away from her, you BITCH!”

Best sequel ever.

7/10 I liked this one a lot more than the first. I liked this crew of characters a lot more, especially Newt, Hicks, and Bishop.

Very good Sci-Fi movie!
