Aliens: A Redenção

First of all, I'm a sucker for horror and sci-fi movies. Second, I LOVE the Alien series. To me this looks and sounds like the first episode of the announced tv series, that Disney is going to trow at us, next year. I´m good with that, if not...just stick with this movie and you will have a blast, i did.

9.7 - A really true surprise of the independent portuguese cinema, directed by Rui Constantino (fix this name, you'll hear about him in the future), which is a kind of "hommage" to the work masterpiece of James Cameron - ALIENS! In fact, it's a short film, made with scarse resources, but with a very high quality degree achieved. Point out to the level of intensity, which comes to the situation where you end up vibrating when seeing this small work, to the point of being really thrilling to watch! For that much contributes the excelent soundtrack and level of sound effects of this picture and the acting of the main actor, who becames a true "RAMBO ALIEN KILLER"! Recommended viewing!!!

To me this is not just a short film it is an experience, never saw until today such a cool tribute to the aliens franchise like this. The lieutenant is our main hero and he kicks ass with a new weapon like the pulse rifle, very cool as the other one, killing aliens left and right (they are all over the place). When the action starts, you're in for the ride of your life. The post-credits scene is for the ages.

Final Grade: 8/10

There's some amazing combination of animatronics, and miniatures used in this short film from the drop ship to the amazing face huggers to the queen alien. As you watch the 36 minutes of unbelievable action in this tribute to the alien franchise, you can feel the love for the xenomorph here, the alien queen is simply amazingly done.

All in All, 10/10 an amazing journey into the alien world.

A glorious redemption of this franchise, i think they did a really good job here, the effects are good, story, characters, aliens, sets, spacheships, egg silo, engineers. i hope there´s another one, i don´t mind to see one each year, it looked like a tv pilot episode.

9/10
