Alien is my favourite movie of all time and forever and nobody can convince me otherwise. It's seen as one of the best science fiction and horror films of all time, and it really does deserve that title. Every aspect of this movie is great and it is amazing. Definitely watch it if you love movies.

I think Alien is the best Si -Fi movie ever made. This movie is director Ridley Scott's masterpiece. He should definitely make a Sequel to Alien Covenant. I have been waiting years for it but the Disappointing Alien Romulus came out and I was thinking why did they stray away from the best franchise in The history of hollywood . I will never forget Alien had to sneak into the movie back in the day.

Few horror films are as instantly iconic as Alien, but Ridley Scott left an incredible impression right out of the gate. His world was both grounded in horror thanks to the chemistry between its core space trucker dynamic and their very industrialized, realistic-feeling vessel, but veers into over worldly as they clash with HR Giger's curved, unearthly designs. With few jumpscares, Alien lets viewers stew in terror, throwing deadly extraterrestrials an all-too-familiar corporate scheming to create a terror ahead of its time.

I am a marketing professor now. The tag line: "In Space No One Can Hear You Scream!" kept me from viewing the movie at the age of 14. I did not actually watch Alien until the 1990s--well after I saw Aliens, if memory serves me correctly! Ridley Scott is a genius! The movie was marketed with magnificent finesse: tag line, graphics, trailer... EVERYTHING!

An essentially perfect movie, Alien creates not just the ultimate claustrophobic sci-fi horror but an incredibly realistic, ambitious, class-conscious alternate world.

This really is a perfect film from start to finish. The crew of characters feel so real. When the Alien starts killing them you are really rooting for them to pull through. Lean and mean. So well done at every level and genuinely thrilling. The best in the franchise and it really isn't close.
