Top Critic
The visual imagery and gloomy tone are the only two reasons to see this disappointing film which is burdened with pretentious religious symplism. Nonethless, in his feature debut David Fincher shows a lot of promise for better things to come.

Fox's DVD restoration/mea culpa of Fincher's original edit is cause for celebration. The studio cut seemed glibly nihilistic --this time when she jumps, it means something.

The advertisements promise '3 times the suspense. 3 times the danger. 3 times the terror.' The only thing Alien3 has triple of is the word 'f--k.'

The soulless Alien³ is essentially an amalgam of power shots.

Flashy, flawed sequel that doesn't deliver the chills of the first or the thrills of the second

Manages to get the job done if you temper your expectation to a modest level.

Filled with scares. Sigourney Weaver is winning once again as a tough woman warrior.

Top Critic All the groundwork laid by Scott and Cameron in the first two films is tossed right out the window by this nihilistic script. Only watchable thanks to Fincher's directing.
