I was pretty young at the first showing of Alien.... but with Post Traumatic stress Syndrome, I didn't sleep for 3 days. S Ridley does a darn good job.
OK ...I'm scared... Give me a run out .10b pitch and don't take me yo the movies.
I loved alien, liked aliens, and thought that the rest of the films in the franchise sucked. From the looks of the trailer, this one seems to have potential. I will probably watch it.
Saw it Friday and really liked it. Probably will see it a second time now. I had some problems with the pacing being a little too fast at first for the scene editing and I thought the interactions of the crew amongst themselves felt fake, but after that I gave it a chance and liked it. Fassbinder as the amoral and childlike android David is great, but Noomi Rapace is fantastic as the very likable feminine lead. She is unrecognizable in this film to me, since all I have seen her in before was "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo." All in all, her story arc is very cool.
Saw it finally. Oh boy. Certainly not a family movie. Scary for sure at times, but interesting.
Perhaps these are questions only Ridley Scott can answer:
So why did the Engineers boot-up life on Earth, only then to want to come back and wipe out mankind and perhaps all life as is known here on earth with the most hideous zoo of aliens?
Let us know!
