Twenty-some odd years after scaring the bejesus out of me as a thrill-seeking teenager, Ridley Scott's 1979 sci-fi horror hallmark "Alien," re-released today in a new Director's Cut, doesn't hold up as well as I'd anticipated. ...read the complete Alien movie review at SPLICEDwire (Rob Blackwelder)

"Alien" is a classic horror and sci fi film. Director Ridley Scott and writer Dan O'Bannon combine the suspense and terror of a teen slasher film with the production values and style of a cerebral space exploration action film. The result is a tense ...read the complete Alien movie review at filmsgraded.com (Brian Koller)

It's not time that's been unkind to "Alien"; it's director Ridley Scott. For the second time — the first was with the 1982 sci-fi thriller "Blade Runner" — Scott has gone back to one of his films and tinkered with it.

Released in 1979, Alien plays like the dark side of George Lucas’ Star Wars and Stanley Kubrick’s 2001.

I have to admit, this movie really did nothing for me.

Alien har utrolig nok klart å få tyve år på baken, men slik ser det faktisk ikke ut.

From the title alone, "Alien" doesn't sound too appealing because it's so generic and boring. It's the epitome of a scifi title, and not surprisingly, this is the epitome of a scifi movie.

Appropriately, I have seen Alien3 on three separate occasions. The first was when the movie first came out in 1992. At the time, I didn't like it, perhaps because I was expected an Aliens-like actionfest. I found it slow and tedious. Then a few years ...read the complete Alien movie review at Prison Flicks
