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.

This is the 3rd part of the "Alien" saga and I like it a lot. In my opinion it is better than the second part (contrary to almost everybody else's opinion). Why? Because it brings back the horror of "Alien" and drops the unnecessary action-overdose of "Aliens".

Extremely disappointing movie that came after a great first part and a spectacular second installment ... In my opinion it lacks originality in terms of plot and characters and to be honest I basically found it boring #wasteoftime

My rating(8,"Great") is for the "Assembly Cut" If the studio bosses would have backed off and thought of making a great movie instead of all the money it would bring in, I think David Fincher would have made a masterpiece. James Cameron proved both could be achieved.

There was a lot more potential than this after the amazing second film. After the non-stop action and fire power of Aliens. Alien 3 takes a slower and more Horror approach where no one even has a gun to defend themselves. It kills off everyone left we cared about from Aliens. As well as any interesting new character in Alien 3. We’re just left with someone not very built up at all. All of the above makes Alien 3 quite frustrating. However it is a well made disappointing film. Alien 3 is tense and well shot. With an at least terrifying alien once again. Sigourney Weaver is quite solid as well.

Given what happened with the production of the film it is amazing that a coherent story came out at all, much less a pretty good one. Following one classic is difficult enough, but following two is nigh on impossible. The furore over the opening that abruptly resolved the fate of certain characters More

At the moment it has 60+% and that makes me happy. I spent a lot of time defending Alien 3 as a stellar addition to the franchise. And, honestly, I think a lot of the hate on it is because of the fate of those that we grew to know and love from Aliens.

The Dog concept was cool. It gave the alien More

Aliens, a great action movie, cheapened the original by replacing one hyper-intelligent, indestructible monster with an army of gormless critters. This third entry has only one creature, but unfortunately it's just as gormless. When Ripley (Weaver) crash-lands on a prison planet full of hard-nut sla More

Don't feck with The Baldies!

Special Edition. I love it, I really do. OK! So it's basically a monster on the loose piece, but the setting at a sci-fi prison colony - complete with nutty religious shards - makes for a thrillingly atmospheric ride. A roll call of Brit thesps line up for some tensio More
