John Nugent Empire Magazine The 4.5 hour-plus runtime might put some off, but that massive canvas only allows for the deepest of deep dives into a monumental achievement in cinematic science-fiction.

Audience Member As an Alien fan who loves the movies especially Aliens I honestly expected more to the documentary. At times I felt it to be an appreciation documentary for James Cameron. I've watched bluray special features and YouTube documentaries that unearthed more about the movie. I hoped to see these in the "definitive" documentary but unfortunately not. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/18/24 Full Review Nick T Clearly a labour of love for Ian Nathan, this is a in-depth delve into the best action movie of all time. Interviews with everyone you could wish for, tons of material and a real sense of the love that cast, crew and fans alike all have for this movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/20/24 Full Review Read all reviews
