Yes, worth a watch, but don't expect to be blown away.

It's definitely interesting. Acting is pretty good. Absolutely check it out.

There's some good stuff in it, but to me, it was a Phantom Menace-level disappointment. There's a ton of stupid stuff. It's like Ridley Scott did stuff on purpose to frustrate the audience.

Yes. It's uneven but worth watching.

I saw it in the theater in IMAX 3D & it blew me away. I wish you could see it the way I did.

Definitely worth watching. I can't believe it's already been 5 years since that movie came out.

Though it isn't a pre-req, I'd recommend checking out the original Alien as well if you haven't yet.

No, it's absolute crap. Ridley Scott should retire from directing. He has made nothing but crap for a while now.

Definitely worth watching. Provides answers to small things, like the beginning of mankind, and other things, like the birth of the Aliens.

There were lots of discussions on it at the time. Might want to check out some of the older threads discussing the movie AFTER you see it.

I really liked it, but I wasn't really looking for a Xenomorph film, so it didn't bother me that it wasn't about that. But, as a warning, I also unapolegtically love Aliens3.

Alien Resurrection is crap. I'm not that crazy.

Uh yes. Probably one of the best Sci-Fi Horror films of 2010s so far in my book. Haters can die.
