An excessive, bold, anemic and misguided mess

A greatest hits compilation of the Alien franchise

Epic but shallow sequel

Outrageous sci-fi perfection

Science fiction at its finest (and bloodiest)

Visually arresting but hollow spectacle

A Lovecraftian masterclass in paranoia

Best sci-fi horror since “Alien” (1979)

Boring, bloated and repetitive sequel

Hilarious and original but occasionally preachy

A pointless cash grab

Epic but hollow spectacle

A whimper of a finale

A monumental experience

One of the worst films of the decade

One of the best action films ever

Recyclable Inception
