Advantages: Aliens, Ripley, Mass slaughter

Disadvantages: Baby aliens, plot looses track

This is the fourth instalment of the Alien saga that most people thought would never be produced. Sigourney said she'd never do another.
Ripley was dead anyhow so another wouldn't be possible, yet here she is running around chasing more Aliens once again. The only difference being it isn't her, its Clone 8, reborn from Ripley DNA, and some Alien DNA because, as the majority will remember from Alien 3, Ripley was pregnant with a little baby Alien.
If you haven’t seen the Alien saga so far, it's not worth just seeing this as a one off. It is, however, worth seeing the Alien saga as on a whole as they're classics and some of the most imaginative and creative films of their time that has born a whole load of spin-of material in the last few decades.
The film, takes place two hundred years after Ripley dove to her death (Alien 3), that's the time it’s taken them to successfully clone Ripley, or so they think. They've also thoughtfully cloned and bred a few aliens just for good measure. 'They'll never escape, we've got them under control, they're our pussy cats'. 'Of course they are! Look even Ripley believes you!' In case you hadn't guessed, they do escape and kill off most of the crew, as if you didn't already now. It's like inviting Miss Marple around for tea. Do you think someone's going to be murdered? Me too.
There to assist Ripley in her fight is Call (Winona), a nifty little fighter with a secret surprise up her sleeve, and a few, Elgyn (Winnot), Johner (Perlman), Vriess (Pinon), and Christie (Dourdan), who aren't sure which side they're on. So it's another death by the masses, slice and dice, slaughter every Alien in the room, get to them before they get to you movie. Except it does have the twist of mixed DNA causing personality defects and instinct changes. See the film and you’ll find out because if I tell you it will spoil the only unique
qualities this film has separating it from another 'run of the mill' Sci-Fi Alien flicks.
Sigourney however, is excellent her role as the new Ripley, a cool character with a killer instinct, pure class.
