| Drezzy | 100 | - Personally, I think this one is better than the original. James Cameron knows how to pace an action film, the cast is perfect, and the special effects still hold up today. |

| Steve Habrat | 95 | - Cameron's Aliens smartly builds upon Ridley Scott's classic while leaving its own fingerprint on the franchise. (full review) |

| Usman Ashraf | 90 | - This is an interesting follow up to the original. Whereas the original was more of a psychological thriller with this one alien taking out each human with stealth and ease, this sequel is all action with packs of aliens coming up against humans head on. It's different from the original, but it's also a lot more fun! |
