Recently got and finished watching the ALIEN QUADRILOGY from the library. For the most part, they don't hold up like they used to. ALIEN was a landmark film in it's time. Yes, the few sequences that make you jump do work, but right after you realize, "Hey it's MAN IN SUIT time!"
ALIENS: I must have liked this because I was 19 at the time. Just doesn't work for me now. Weaver and Henrieksen are good, but all the other characters are either extraneous, annoying or both.
ALIEN3: SNOOZE FEST!
Alien Resurrection: First time I have ever seen it and I have to say I enjoyed this one best because it wasn't trying to be anything other than a Big Dumb Action Flick.
