Alien³

1992 · 1h 54m · Science Fiction, Action, Horror

IMDb 6.4 Metacritic 59 RT 43%

Skip it tonight unless you're a die-hard Alien franchise completist. Alien³ is a messy, divisive entry that kills off beloved characters, hamstrings itself with a no-weapons premise, and struggles under the weight of studio interference—even David Fincher's directorial debut can't fully salvage the muddled execution.

Plot

After escaping with Newt and Hicks from the alien planet, Ripley crash lands on Fiorina 161, a prison planet and host to a correctional facility. Unfortunately, although Newt and Hicks do not survive the crash, a more unwelcome visitor does. The prison does not allow weapons of any kind, and with aid being a long time away, the prisoners must simply survive in any way they can.

Director: David Fincher

Cast: Sigourney Weaver, Charles S. Dutton, Charles Dance, Paul McGann, Brian Glover
