Negative Positive
Title: One of the biggest letdowns in history of sequels.
Review: Rarely is the sequel better than the original, so expectations were high after Aliens proved this assertion dead wrong. Alien 3, without Cameron at the helm, was a dismal and disjointed attempt at sucking the blood out of the franchise. With Sigourney Weaver objecting to being filmed with guns around her, script writers changing at a moment's notice, and budgets slashed, this was a disaster waiting to happen. And it did. Pointless elimination of Newt and Hicks, characters that made Aliens the great movie that it was, drove away the fan base. Sigourney Weaver's primadonna demands that there be no guns combined with ever changing cast of screenwriters ended up in a heap of celluloid not worth wasting one's 2 hours of life on.
