After floating in space for 57 years, Lt. Ripley’s (Sigourney Weaver) shuttle is found by a deep space salvage team. Upon arriving at LV-426, the marines find only one survivor, a nine year old girl named Newt (Carrie Henn).  But even these battle-hardened marines with all the latest weaponry are no match for the hundreds of aliens that have invaded the colony.
“Yo! Stop your grinnin’ and drop your linen!” says Private Hudson (the late Bill Paxton). And “Game over, man! Game over!”

“Sigourney Weaver is merely terrific… When she straps on her armament to do battle with the aliens, she makes Sylvester Stallone look like a pipsqueak.” – Bob Thomas, Associated Press

“Beyond dispute, however, is the film’s timeless worth as a cathartic work, especially in terms of its accidentally commentary on the sexism of the corporate structure.” – Melanie McFarland, Salon.com

“The whole finale is white-knuckled, some of the best action and suspense film-making I’ve ever seen.” – Chris Stuckmann, ChrisStuckmann.com

“Scene to scene, encounter to encounter, its tension builds unrelentingly. So, fasten your seat belts. It`s a blast.” – Rick Kogan, Chicago Tribune

“A spectacular example of state-of-the-art science fiction simply because it never tries to be overtly spectacular.” – Desmond Ryan, Philadelphia Inquirer

“It’s blaster action, not Gothic future-horror. Fortunately, director-screenwriter James Cameron has shaped his film around the defiant intelligence and sensual athleticism of Weaver, and that’s where Aliens works best.” – Sheila Benson, Los Angeles Times

“Perhaps the greatest exemplar of science-fiction, action, and horror faultlessly blended together into one film.” – Mike Massie, Gone With The Twins

“An often astonishingly engaging and entertaining sequel…” – David Nusair. Reel Film Reviews
