Let's just start out by saying this is an outstanding film. The screenplay? Ehh, it lacked. The plot? Fantastic. The climax? Incredible. With brilliant acting (well, mostly...a few terrible actors in there. 'o.O) this is a film you don't wanna miss. You have your classic thriller right here-I'd strongly suggest you grab some popcorn and see it today! :P The only thing is it's not necessarily a movie for people with weak stomachs or for under 13-14. (Unless your child is mature) Strong, graphic violence exchanged between creepy looking monsters and proud marines makes this movie a hardcore R. For sex...well, there's not any of that in here. I will list a few of the most graphic scenes of violence: -A realistically human-looking Android is impaled, white blood gushes out of his wound and mouth. He is then lifted up, screaming, and brutally torn in half, again, white blood spewing from his torso. His torso is thrown to the ground, where what I believed to be intestines are visibly exposed in a semi-graphic manner. (Again, it's clearish white; realistic, yet, discoloured) -A young boy about 12 or 13 years of age is seen mangled in a cocoon. He begs for help, so the marines attempt to approach him. In a "jump" scene, a very disturbing image protrudes from his stomach. It breaks out of the skin, blood and gore eminent, which we realize is actually a baby alien. (This isn't a humanoid, it's a real boy; so the blood and gore is red and realistic) -Multiple instances of limbs scorched by acid. In one instance, a man's face is eaten away by the acid. (Shown briefly, but somewhat disturbing) -Multiple arrays of aliens, the crab-like little spawns and the full grown adult squid things are graphically shot to death, and sometimes, blown up. (A LOT of green blood and gore) -A woman is slashed to death by an alien. (doesn't show the alien slashing her, but blood spews all over the cockpit) -Multiple corpses are seen cocooned to plasma-like walls of alien slime. -A marine ignites another marine on fire on accident with a flamethrower while trying to kill an alien. The marine flips over a rail and falls approximately 2,000 feet while engulfed in flames. -A crab-like organism is disected; its internal organs are visible as Bishop examines it. -2 crab-like creatures attempt to kill a young girl and a woman. The little girl post-pones her attacker, while the woman's attacker slowly strangles her to death. Some marines arrive in the nick of time and get the creature off her neck and then machine gun it to death. (Red blood spews all over the camera) -Multiple other disturbing and violent sequences of monster violence and terror; not appropriate for young children. Suggested MPAA Rating: Rated R for Sequences of bloody monster violence, disturbing images, and some language. Overall, this is a very, very good film. I strongly encourage whomever has a strong stomach and has a knack for aliens to view this movie; its definately worth it.
