I hate just about everything in this film. People (including myself) complained about Alien 3 for a lot of points. Quite frankly, that film is amazing in comparison. Direction, acting, plot quality... everything. I know Joss Whedon is the writer on this, but I can't believe this is what was in his mind while scripting. I've enjoyed many other things this guy has written, but I have a hard time figuring out how this would have worked at all. Also, it blows my mind how this series has dropped in effects quality with each new film. Just, don't bother watching this at all, it is a total wreck.

The last chapter in the "Alien" saga is also the weakest movie of the quadrology! It has an even more unrealistic story than Aliens (Alien 2).

Additionally to this shortcoming it's too much action & too few horror elements. And most annoyingly Jean-Pierre Jeunet added (or at least tried to add) some humour and comical phrases which are absolutly missplaced. The best thing about the movie are gorgeous aliens in it!

All in all it was an absolutely unnecessary extension to an excellent trilogy.

They tried to bring back Ripley to please fans. However, she's just not the same. This Ripley isn't as likeable since she's a clone with very little emotion. While the fine cast is just wasted in a movie that drags the series down to B-Movie status.
The cable rating gives this *** but part 3 **. What drugs are they on ? Despite it's flaws and killing off Ripley, Hicks and Newt. Yes, even that film is way better than this. Since it had better direction at least.
While I was at first was shocked to be reminded that Joss Whedon wrote the screenplay. Since it feels more like fan fiction. However, the Avengers has that feeling to it at times as well.
Despite coming out two years before Deep Blue Sea. It's pretty much that movie with aliens, except Deep Blue Sea is actually better. Winoma Ryder looks lost but Call is still the only character I cared about.

The plot is laughable, but the third one and second one weren't much better. At least this has some iconic scenes, like the basketball scene, or Ripley drowning in a pile of Xenomorphs. I don't know, this one sucks as an Alien movie, but it's a guilty pleasure for me.

This is a real departure in tone from the other three Alien films that preceded it. It's rather quirky with its cast of over-the-top characters. Sigourney Weaver is still great of course, and Brad Dourif brings the weird. Ron Perlman is part of the cast, but he serves next to no purpose other than to deliver some of the attempts at humor in Joss Whedon's script.

The practical effects are very good with the queen alien bordering on amazing. The baby alien is also quite a creation, although I'm not fond of how it's used. I was surprised at how gory this movie is. The other three Alien films didn't shy away from the gore, either, but "Alien Resurrection" ups the ante.

This is my least liked of the "quadrilogy" but it's still a fun watch.

This movie had so much going for it. Excellent cast, awesome director, written by Joss Whedon - it should have been fun, if nothing else. Unfortunately, it ended up being a nonsensical, hideous mess and an insult to anyone who loves the first two movies. It's like an idiot's view of the future. Ripley died for better than this. To its credit, the creature design at the end is hella nightmarish.

"Look at how they massacred my boy"
Damn, I really wanted this movie to be good. For me it started great, 200 years after the events on Fury 161 they clone Ripley to get the Xenomorph Queen. Again, **for me** this was great, I really was into the story and wanted to know how the plot was going to unfold. But... cmon...
[spoiler]One minute you have Xeno's killing each other to perfurate the hull of the space ship (with their acid blood) , another you have them magically spit acid out of their mouth just to snare a human [/spoiler]
Them trying to be funny was just utterly awful
Now let's address the elephant in the room, I've seen many commenters saying that Ripley's lack of emotions and empathy threw them off. I kinda get it, not that I liked it, but I get the need. They needed a way to separate real Ripley from clone Ripley.
The awful acting and jokes, the unexplainable new power[spoiler] and the last xeno-humanoid[/spoiler] is what made this movie so awful for me, they should have just kept this a trilogy

More enjoyable and fun to watch than 3, but also completely stupid. No CGI (good, because the Alien looks amazing), but not as good of an Alien film than 3.

Super fun!

I wasn't expecting 'Alien Resurrection' to come out better than 'Alien³'. Sure, this 1997 flick isn't as great as 'Alien' and 'Aliens' but I honestly wouldn't put it that far off. I really enjoyed it, cracking action coupled with a great cast.

Sigourney Weaver as Ellen Ripley is a pleasure as always, meanwhile this is the most I enjoyed a support cast from the franchise. Winona Ryder, Ron Perlman, Brad Dourif, Raymond Cruz, Gary Dourdan and Michael Wincott all have positive moments.

Not the franchise's best, yet arguably its most entertaining. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

One of the worst films I've ever seen. How people continue to make apologies for it is beyond me.
