Aliens

Where’s the release of 4k?????

Alien is one of the greatest Sci-Fi movies ever created with it’s beautifully dark and moody aesthetic design and slow building story. Aliens on the other hand is a rollercoaster once it kicks in. It’s one of the rare instances in cinema where it not only meets expectations but surpasses them. Modern movies could learn a few things about the female lead in this movie. Forget those hollow, perfect modern heroines of cinema today this is how it’s done. Ripley is one of the greatest female heroes of movie history for a reason as she is vulnerable but strong. Perfect Combination and believable too because of that. (Marvel are you listening??) There are a handful of movies I wish I could go back and see for the first time again and this is one of them. What more can you say, it’s Aliens. Kick back and enjoy one of the greatest Sci-Fi/Action movies to ever grace the silver screen. Let’s Rock!!

This is an absolute masterpiece to the Alien franchise. Weaver, Michael Biehn, Mark Rolston, Paxton and Goldstein were brilliant just to name a few! Excellent action and suspense sequences. Also, it is great that both the Ukrainian and German language is available for subtitles.

As vital plot cut to reduce length

Theatrical cut plays by default, but the 1990 special edition with 17 extra minutes of footage can be found in the iTunes extras menu.

The description says BOTH VERSIONS. THIS IS NOT TRUE! What you get is the THEATRICAL Version and the directors cut is not available anywhere as far as I can see and I have searched extensively. 5* for the film... Apple... sort yourself out, you are becoming annoying now and you are not the only tech manufacturer / streaming and download service. 1* purely because I can’t rate lower.

Aliens Is directed by James Cameron, starring Sigourney Weaver, Michael Biehn and Bill Paxton. The plot follows fifty seven years after the events of alien Ripley is found and asked to go back to lv 426 with coniel marines. There you go a 2 and a half hour of a thrill ride. I love this movie, it is so entertaining, filled with memorable quotes especially from the late Bill Paxton “it’s game over man it’s game over” which is brilliant as well as “I am the ultimate bad ass” we get some of the best lines of dialogue ever, not one line felt out of place, the pacing is fast and intense. I also think this is some of the best child acting from the girl who plays newt “they mostly come at night....mostly” terrifying line! Sigourney Weaver also gives I think her best performance with what I think is the best movie heroin I’ve ever seen, she is a reluctant hero, in the first act she doesn’t even want to go to the planet. She has nightmares every night about the alien attack this makes her want to go to the planet to destroy the aliens for a closure. This movie also gives her so much humanity. Especially when you learn she was a mother at the beginning and so her relation ship with newt is lovely. All of the puppets and costumes are so brilliant it feels real because the actors are actually there with the xenomorph species. You can’t unlike one character not one even the bad guy, I slightly liked him. This movie is my 3rd favourite movie of all time

Was really disappointed to find that this was the version without the initial contact either the colonists or the sentry gun scene. iTunes has a real habit of not offering the extended cuts or bonus content while charging as much or often more that the blue ray dvd.

This is a good directors cut of a classic film. But I must say that the directors cut of Alien 3 is one of the best directors cuts I've seen as it completely makes the whole film change from a slightly confusing mess to something that makes sense. It's well worth a watch.....

A great film a classic.
