Great Xenomorphs (0 more)

Some wooden acting. (0 more)

A good romp with some tense atmospherics.

A great premise with some stunning CGI. Some of the scenes feel a bit forced as they have borrowed alot from other xenomorph/horror films.
Ryan Reynolds plays Ryan Reynolds with his quirky and snappy sarcasm carrying through.
Jake Gylenhall was a favourite of mine as he generally brings another character to the table.
All in all a enjoyable flick with lashings of aliens and enough tension to keep you interested.

It's that time of the year. It's time for all the scary movies of vampires, werewolves, monsters, ghosts, witches, zombies, aliens, and the scariest of all, other HUMANS, to invade our screens.

So tell me, do you like scary to watch movies?

"It’s ridiculously sentimental in some parts and maddeningly intrusive in others, and the heart of it depends on the hoary cliché of all white men being virulently racist as a matter of course. And yet . . . who can forget it once they’ve seen it? It’s urgent, unapologetic, and irrepressibly alive. Aliens from the future could find no more fitting an artifact to see America’s soul at the tail end of the twentieth century than Spike Lee’s tone poem to human nature and human chaos."
