In a cleverly conceived scenario, Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) &#8212; who has been in a &#8220;sleep coma&#8221; for over fifty years &#8212; is accidentally discovered by a salvage crew (whose first reaction, notably, is one of disappointment for losing its potential commission; this is a future universe in which greed rules all). Against her better judgment, she&#8217;s bullied into returning to the planet where aliens annihilated her crew, and where a settlement of humans is now (supposedly) thriving. We&#8217;re also given a bit of a back-story, learning that Ripley was the mother of a young girl who has since aged and died &#8212; thus nicely setting the stage for Ripley&#8217;s fierce protection of a young girl (Carrie Henn as &#8220;Newt&#8221;) she finds hiding on the planet. Finally, the nameless corporation which put the entire crew of the <em>Nostromo<\/em> in harm&#8217;s way in <em>Alien<\/em> is given a face (Paul Reiser) this time around, allowing audiences to palpably hiss at a known (human) enemy. <\/p>\n<p>The sets and special effects in <em>Aliens<\/em> are just as effective as before, though everything feels (appropriately) amped up a notch. While <em>Alien<\/em> was essentially a slow-moving thriller punctuated by bursts of seat-jumping violence, <em>Aliens<\/em> possesses many more non-stop action sequences &#8212; and yes, there are <u>more<\/u> aliens this time. Surrounded by a crew of ultra-macho Marines (including a couple of remarkably buff women), Ripley is no longer alone in her battle against the beasts &#8212; though she does (infamously) face off alone against &#8220;Mother&#8221; (the mother alien) at one point. Henn (who left movie-making to become a teacher and a mother) does a fine job as Newt, and is given the film&#8217;s most memorably campy line (quoted above, and infamously spoofed on &#8220;South Park&#8221;). This kid is placed in some seriously dangerous situations, yet remains refreshingly realistic about it all &#8212; she&#8217;s got both excellent luck and plucky determination on her side. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sigourney Weaver as Ripley (nominated by the actual Academy as Best Actress of the Year, but not by Peary in his <em>Alternate Oscars<\/em>)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Weaver2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Weaver2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16798\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Weaver2.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Weaver2-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Weaver2-300x168.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Gruesome special effects<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Special-Effects.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Special-Effects.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Special-Effects.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Special-Effects-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Special-Effects-300x168.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Many genuinely heart-thumping action sequences<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Heart-Thumping.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Heart-Thumping.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Heart-Thumping.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Heart-Thumping-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Aliens-Heart-Thumping-300x168.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nYes.
