As I open this review I realize the unintended pun in regards to the title. Resurrection. This picture idea needed to remain dead. Don't get me wrong, I had a good laugh watching it and I was even entertained. ********* a clear example of what already began to take place in Alien 3 and takes place with many Hollywood franchises all the time. The product makes money, so you turn to the accountant

underrated yet so awesome(comes close to the brilliance of the original but no where near the second except visually). visually stunning indeed. do not see the 3rd though. it was awful.

Weaver obviously relishes playing this feral, sarcastic new Ripley, and her pleasure is infectious. Full Review

Even with her stinko lines, Weaver has never been as flabbergastingly gorgeous and charismatic. She's tall and lean and meteor-hard, and you can almost believe there's really acid in her blood, and that no alien in its right mind would mess with her. Full Review

Variety
As a series of action set pieces, the movie is frequently gripping and always highly watchable. However, when the movie strays into weirder territory --- where, one feels, Jeunet's heart really lies --- there's a growing feeling of inadequacy. Full Review

Recycles the great surprises that made the first movie so powerful. And most significantly, it makes a big hoot of the whole business. Full Review

Tauntingly flirtatious scenes between Ms. Ryder and Ms. Weaver give this film a sexual boldness that the others' action-adventure spirit lacked. Full Review
