I see from most of the reviews that this film wasn't favoured but in my opinion I love back and origin stories. Alien to resurrection were how the Xenomorph species expanded and developed. This film and it's predecessor explore where the deadliest creature in the universe came from. I do hope there is another to link up with the 1979 Alien film.
I know with Alien franchise it's all about the horror and suspense but a story and plotline is important too. I am glad Ridley Scott did get the opportunity to fill in the gaps unanswered in the preceding films.
Bring on the next one, me want more!

Rating this for what it was when I first saw it in theaters.

I remember all the build up for this right before it came out and actually seeing it I remember walking out with my mom and brother and we couldn't stop talking about it! We had always been Spiderman fans and the movie really lived up to the hype.

Toby Maguire will always be my favorite Peter Parker he pulled off the nerdy kid so perfect and Kristen Dunst was such a great MJ and let's be real the upside kiss was one of my favorite moments and still is to this day.

It really was a great origin story for such an amazing character... Now I really want to rewatch it.

End the curse
An OK end to a decent trilogy. We get to find out the origin of the Witch of Shadyside and her curse. The first half of the film I found incredibly slow and rather boring. Set in 1666 it takes a long while for anything interesting to happen. Although eventually we do find out the back story of the Witch.
This one doesn't really get going until near the end when we are back in '94 with the group trying to survive and end the curse once and for all. Worth persevering with to get to this section if you liked the first two films. Overall though the weakest of the 3 films.

THE ETERNAL SERIES: Books 1-4 not only gives you the four main stories, but two added extra shorts. The first one tells the origin story of Sammael/Alaric and the second is Kaitlyn and Raif's story.

The premise of this series is a really good one, but I'm afraid the constant time- and head-hopping made the writing style difficult for me to get into. There were also numerous spelling mistakes that jolted me out of the story. There were also a multitude of euphemisms used, eg. middle leg, and flag pole. I'll leave it to you to figure out what was being spoken about. And if I had a euro for every time "Rock, meet hard place," was mentioned, I'd be rich.

I enjoyed most of the characters and their individual stories. I also enjoyed seeing how their relationships continued in the following stories. The only one I really didn't like was Alex. He annoyed me from the beginning and nothing he did changed my mind.

I'm sure there are plenty of stories left in this series and I certainly wouldn't mind continuing with the story. Each book is long enough to sink your teeth into with plenty of intense steamy scenes too.

Great stories and overall story arc, recommended by me.
