57 years after the Nostromo took on a little extra hitch-hiker that caused problems. Ripley now goes back to the planet with Colonial Marines after colonists have lost contact with Earth, instead of fighting one alien, there is a mass horde of them.

Right after the first 20-25 mins we meet the marines who seem ready to kick ass except Bill Paxton's Hudson who seems to crack easily but then we begin to like him. Paul Reiser's Burke who is the company man seems likeable but then some company men turn out to be a real prick in which he becomes. There is plenty of action, suspense, laughs and a nice score by James Horner mixed in.
