  In Space No One Can Hear You Walk Out

  Weaver-nother one on the loose!
  
  It's not quite on the same level as the first two films but Alien 3 still packs a punch.

  Great Movie!
  
  Not as good as number one and two, but still a really good movie.
  
  Excellent acting and great action, enough to keep you entertained throughout.

  One of the worst films I've seen.
  
  It upsets me to say that I don't like a David Fincher film; Fight Club, Seven, and Panic Room are all very good. But because he was a new director at the ... read more »
