The UnPopular Opinion: Alien Resurrection (Video)

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Welcome back to The UnPopular Opinion! The UnPopular Opinion features different takes on films that either I hated, but that the majority of film fans loved or vice versa. We have always hoped this column will promote constructive and geek fueled discussion. Now, with us entering the visual world, you can get pissed off in a whole new medium!

In space, no one can hear you scream but that isn't such a bad thing. All of the films in the ALIEN franchise after James Cameron's sequel have gotten a bad rap or have been unfairly compared to Ridley Scott's original. But, that often discounts some truly creative cinematic experiences. Case in point: ALIEN: RESURRECTION. Directed by an art-house filmmaker and taking the series in a bold direction, ALIEN: RESURRECTION has long been a maligned chapter in the ALIEN series and this video is here to set the record straight.

Oh, and if you have any suggestions for The UnPopular Opinion I’m always happy to hear them. You can send along an email to [email protected] or spell it out in the comments below. Provide me with as many movie suggestions as you like, with any reasoning you'd care to share, and if I agree then you may one day see it featured in this very column!
