Aliens Analysis | The Cutting Room Movie Review

Описание: James Cameron's second (full) feature as director, Aliens was a huge box office hit on its release in 1986. A follow up to Ridley Scott's science fiction horror classic Alien, the film continues the story of Ellen Ripley who, after 57 years adrift in deep space, returns to the source of her nightmares - LV-426 - to investigate a missing terraforming colony. She and the marines accompanying her find an alien infestation waiting for them.

Shifting genre from horror to shoot 'em up, Cameron's mastery of white knuckle action, combined with his expertise in practical visual effects, resulted in one of the biggest thrill rides in Hollywood. And, with actress Sigourney Weaver, Cameron developed one of the great action movie protagonists (female or otherwise) in Ripley.
