Alien: Resurrection (1997) – What a thoroughly mixed bag
this is: Jeunet has an effective visual style, but his tone is often jarringly
campy; there are a number of intriguing ideas—including a sufficiently fresh
spin on Ripley to keep things interesting—but Whedon’s script isn’t particularly ambitious
from a storytelling standpoint, and it’s got a ton of throwaway
dialogue that isn’t nearly as clever as it thinks it is; and while there are
some good performances by the supporting cast—plus Weaver, of course—Ryder feels
out of place and Hedaya is ridiculous. 6
