The third part is still okay, with religious overtones

From the beginning of the film, compared with the first two, the third part has a very different style. A few shots that suddenly flashed, a little bit told us that the heroine Ripley and they were in trouble again. At the end of the second part, the heroine and others were sleeping on the spaceship, ready to sail back to earth, but the alien didn't know Why did it appear on the spacecraft, and it also caused a short circuit in the cabin, and a series of reactions made Ripley and the others fall into the labor camp on the most remote planet in the galaxy. The soundtrack sung at the beginning, with the religious beliefs of the prisoners behind, often talking about religious regulations, etc., this film has a religious color that the first two films did not have.

In the third part of the plot, the heroine shaved her head, which is relatively fresh in shape and looks cool. The most surprising thing is that there is finally a plot about the heroine's love. Unfortunately, this relationship was soon destroyed by Alien.

The three scenes of fighting with aliens are not in the same scene. The first one is the spaceship, the colony base, and the prison in order from the third one. It seems that it actually takes place indoors. The narrow and dark space is easy to render horror. It has a terrifying atmosphere, so every time I watch it, I sweat for the people who do everything possible to survive. There are no weapons in the third labor prison, and there is only one alien who comes to the prison. If it's a former crew member or marine, it's not very difficult to destroy an alien. But the mortals in the prison are not scientists who can make a flamethrower in 20 minutes, nor are they soldiers who know how to fight and all kinds of combat skills. A lot of fighting links, but still very entertaining.

The third Ripley is no longer the heroine with the protagonist's halo, because she actually has an alien in her body, and she is also the queen of aliens, no wonder the aliens are reluctant to kill her. At the end of the film, Ripley sacrifices herself in the hope of saving others. When she jumped into the incinerator, the alien queen was born in her body. When watching, she wondered if the alien would break free from her hand and jump away. Ripley was annihilated in the incinerator, and now there is only one of the 25 prisoners in the prison. The rescue team took him away, and the prison was closed for auction. Alien is so scary", the second part is "Finally defeated Alien, Ripley is too powerful", but the third part has a feeling of sigh.

Alien 3 quotes

  • Andrews: We've 25 prisoners in this facility. All double-Y chromos. All thieves, rapists, murderers, child-molesters... All scum. Just because they have taken on religion doesn't make them any less dangerous. I try not to offend their convictions. I don't want to upset the order. I don't want ripples in the water. And I don't want a woman walking around, giving them ideas...

    Ripley: I see. For my own personal safety...

    Andrews: Exactly...

  • Morse: [When Dillon proposes to fight the Alien] When the fuck can't we wait for the company to have some guns on our side? Why - why should we go on a fuckin' suicide run?
