Alien 3* (1992) – It begins by criminally throwing away much
of the significance of Aliens, but it
nonetheless manages to start off decently strong even so, due in large part to
fine performances by Weaver (as usual), Dance, and Dutton; it has a few highlights, but the effects are decidedly subpar, and the film spends most of its
second half as poorly paced, pedestrian horror populated by indistinguishable
and undeveloped characters, in which its well-known development fiascos shine
through with some bad script and plot moments. 5
*I watched the 145-minute Assembly Cut.
