Worst movie of the Alien franchise the film starts of with a massive plot hole with how did the eggs get aboard the Sulaco which is never explained and doesn't really make sense since the queen essentially attacked Ripley as soon as she got off the drop ship.Plus by the third films own logic the Sulaco should of been able to detect the egg for example when Ripley and the remains of Bishop access the escape modules recorder it managed to detect an unknown life form. Not too mention the treatment of Hicks and Newt characters people really liked by killing them off which is a slap in the face to fans of the previous film.

Besides Ripley none of the characters were really memorable they all kind of blended together and the way Andrews described them the sought of people you'd like to see a xenomorph tear apart.

The production problems this film had shows especially when you compare the original release to the Assembly cut the poor editing with the original version shows.

The ending of the film was pretty well executed with Ripley sacrifices herself to prevent the company from getting the creature and the films music was nicely done but other then that a real let down.
