See more Satoshi i @SatoshiK Dec 10 I guess for it's time, it was a decent movie. But watching it nowadays, really made me notice how boring this movie really is. No charming characters, no nothing. See more Chad H. @ASOIrishWoody Dec 8 Alien is the story of a space crew just trying to mind their business, haul some cargo, and NOT get murdered by something that looks like a nightmare glued together with teeth and slime. Unfortunately, HR does not exist in space. Spolier Alert The movie starts with the crew of the Nostromo waking up from hypersleep looking like they all desperately need coffee and PTO. They get a distress signal, and because company policy is apparently “investigate everything even if it’s obviously a trap,” they land on a spooky planet filled with what can only be described as biological mistakes. Kane, overconfident king of bad decisions, gets a facehugger attached to him — which is honestly what you get for sticking your head into alien eggs like you’re at an intergalactic farmers market. The crew brings him back onboard, ignoring Ripley’s VERY reasonable “nope, absolutely not, quarantine means stay outside” energy. Once the facehugger falls off and everyone relaxes, Kane sits down for the most cursed dinner in movie history. He coughs, twitches, and then BOOM — a tiny demon worm erupts from his chest, screams at everyone, and scampers off like a gremlin late for a dentist appointment. From here, the movie becomes the world’s worst game of hide-and-seek. The alien grows from “angry sock puppet” to “six-foot-tall death machine with drool issues” in roughly 12 minutes. It stalks the ship like it pays rent, picking off crew members one by one while Ripley is the only person with both common sense and a functioning survival instinct. Parker tries to fight it with a flamethrower. Lambert tries to negotiate with it by crying. Ash turns out to be an android who loves corporate loyalty more than human life — which is honestly the most believable part of the whole movie. Ripley eventually blows up the ship, survives the alien, and floats into space with her cat Jonesy, who absolutely contributes nothing except being adorable and occasionally hissing.
