I just want to talk about an absolute masterpiece:
Aliens (1986)
I could talk about this film for hours. I‘m not kidding.
I consider it one of the best pieces of media ever created, in my opinion it has everything that a good film needs:
The characters & their relationships with each other are perfect
The created atmosphere is immaculate
How Ripley deals with her trauma from the first movie is portrayed very well
The action is great (typical 80s but still)
The camera work & acting is perfect
The lighting fits the genre and topic of the film
The (practical) effects used are top tier
And most of all: the Alien designs, the queen, the warriors, etc. are sooo perfect
I‘m not afraid to hide that I‘m a sucker for the found family trope and this film gave me everything I needed. I have watched Aliens countless times by now and I still cry in the end, the bond between Hicks, Ripley, Newt and even Bishop is one of the sweetest in all of fiction (to me at least).
When I first watched Alien (1979) I was amazed and thought that the second movie would be a typical horror sequel (poorly written, worse than the first one and an uninspiring rip-off), but Cameron proved me wrong.
I was so wrong. I instantly fell in love with this film and consider it to be even better than Alien (1979) if that‘s even possible.
If one film deserves all it‘s praise, it‘s Aliens!
