Editorial Review: Perhaps these films are like the Star Trek movies: The even-numbered episodes are the best ones. Certainly this film (directed by French stylist Jean-Pierre Jeunet) is an improvement over Alien 3, with a script that breathes exciting new life into the franchise. This chapter is set even further in the future, where scientists on a space colony have cloned both the alien and Ripley (Sigourney Weaver), who died in Alien 3; in doing so, however, they've mixed alien DNA with Ripley's human chromosomes, which gives Ripley surprising power (and a bad attitude). A band of smugglers comes aboard only to discover the new race of aliens--and when the multi-mouthed melonheads get loose, no place is safe. But, on the plus side, they have Ripley as a guide to help them get out. Winona Ryder is on hand as the smugglers' most unlikely crew member (with a secret of her own), but this one is Sigourney's all the way. --Marshall Fine
A group of scientists has cloned Lt. Ellen Ripley, along with the alien queen inside her, hoping to breed the ultimate weapon. But the resurrected Ripley is full of surprises for her "creators," as are the aliens they've imprisoned. And soon, a lot more than "all hell" breaks loose. To combat the creatures, Ripley must team up with a band of smugglers, including a mechanic named Call (Ryder), who holds more than a few surprises of her own.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Alien termination
Alien and Aliens were sci-fi classics that can still be enjoyed till this day. Alien 3 was very flawed but it still had its moments. Alien Resurrection is a joke and shouldnt even be mentioned as a part of the Alien trilogy.
Plot: Mad scientists clone Ripley to get the alien that was inside of her from the previous episode on the maximum security prison. Later on Ripley stumbles upon a sick experiment to breed aliens with humans.
Opinion: At least Alien 3 had a chance to ... Read More
Rating: - SOLID ACTION PACKED INSTALLMENT! RESURRECTION?... THIS SERIES NEVER NEEDED IT! 3 1/2 STARS!
Action packed forth installment is actually very good! We get to see more aliens than ever in this fun and fast paced finale(so far??). While the first and third 'Alien' movies were deliberately slow, building tension along the way. This film feels more like 'Aliens' (part 2) with lots of action and fast paced fun! I didn't remember liking this film as much the first time I saw it, but it seems to have grown on me.
While we could all argue that this franchise could have stopped after the ... Read More
Rating: - INEXCUSABLY BAD!!!
As if A3 was a big enough slap to the fans faces.
This monstrosity just drives salt in the wound.
I heard when they were making this they were going to make A3 just a dream sequence and bring back the cast from part 2.
Obviously they decided to go in a different direction.
Pity, they went in the WRONG direction.
The worst of the bunch.
Horrid story, horrid acting, overly gross out scenes.
Start, hated it.
Middle, hated it more.
End, THANK GOD!!!

Rating: - Good scare
Okay, again I don't own this movie, but I have seen it.
It was scary, but not as good as the first one.
Lots of blood, and gory scenes
Rating: - Good,but not great.
I liked this film better than part3. The ripley character is given a bit of depth by her being part alien. I thought the cast was pretty well picked also. The movie could have used a bit more action and the end is pretty weak to me. The whole alien,human hybrid should have been done with ripley. Them adding an alien who is part human is misplaced and gets in the way of more action. good film,but not as good as aliens.
