give Alien Resurrection a break!

I can't understand why people completly dump on Alien Resurrection. I mean I feel the film had great possibilities.

Look at it like this: in Alien through Alien 3 the UAC were trying their upmost to get a live Xenomorph to experiment on, and make weapons from or whatever. In Alien Resurrection they have the Xenomorphs and you see them carry out tests, this is a good break from the monotinous stuff you see in the previous three films. Which is why Alien 3 was dumped on also, it was the same **** over and over again.

Now I will be the first to admit I was not stunned by the film, because it was executed very badly, and what the **** was with that half Xenomorph-half human thing? Tbh if you are looking for a film with lost of ****s n' giggles then look no farther, it is great for a lads night in or whatever.

I enjoyed it for the very reasons that were outlined in the Alien 5 thread.

Did you not just ask people to give the movie a break and then just dump on it in your second paragraph!?!

I didn't dump on it, I was just saying that I did not think of it as Oscar-worthy

No I won't give it a break because it's crap.

Also? We have a thread already on the Alien series, so this is pointless. Locked!
