Alien 4, Deeper Alien

NB! NB! NB! This one is the strongest since the fourth film, with various compositions and absurd aesthetics, but I still have to talk about a few flaws, the first logical problem, just like the previous ones, the pros and cons are too deliberately shaped, and I even forgot the villain when I saw the end What it looks like, there are only label memories of generals, mad scientists, etc. And why the military is confused if they have to copy Ripley, and there is no hint of where the military got the alien queen's egg. Promise pirates to move around on military ships just because of a deal, too? ? ? Where did Cole know about this top secret two hundred years ago, why did the humanoid queen born from the alien queen kill the alien queen? If Ripley is determined to be the queen, then the first queen should be humanoid, etc. There are still a lot of strange points left unanswered.

At the beginning, the picture of Ripley No. 8 breaking out of the cocoon has already pointed out the whole movie, and scientists have mentioned the butterfly more than once. Human sacrifice and dedication, this one focuses on expressing beauty and humanity. Alien is not just a killing machine like the previous ones, but has a richer expression. The humanoid alien is attached to Ripley like a mother, and Ripley gave birth to the alien. After the telepathy to them (indicating that Ripley has part of the queen's ability) after being designed by Ripley, her expression when she shouted NO was full of despair of being betrayed by her dear ones, not only the appearance, but also the demeanor and behavior like a The smile of a newborn baby after killing someone reminds me of a child crushing a bug (before education). After four episodes, Ripley finally returned to Earth, which now looked like a wasteland. And the story is just beginning...

Ripley is under guard
Ripley emerges from the cocoon
A trade of twelve innocent sacrifices
From another angle, the face-hugging bug prepares to parasitize
Crazy obsession with aliens
Attempts to domesticate aliens by training dogs
What scientists say about humanoids
The humanoid longs for a mother's caress

It's all over to see the clouds on the earth
The Doomsday Wasteland and the First People on Earth

The director seems to have paid homage to Space Odyssey: 2001 in composition

Full of space and tech beauty
