This guy is such an underrated actor, he’s one of those greats who regrettably only get smaller but kind of important parts. He really prepares himself and throws his everything at it and it elevates everyone in the room.
Everyone hated this film in 1997 but I’d say it has aged very well. It’s definitely inferior to the previous Alien films but it’s a really great monster movie. It just has that freaky 90s vibe and a great cast
@@punothebear my friend hello anyway I saw Alien Resurrection in the early 2000s as a preteen and I still enjoy it and it is my 5th favorite sci-fi action and horror movie but The Thing (1982) directed by John Carpenter is my number 1 favorite sci-fi horror movie because that one scared me a lot more than all four of the Alien movies as well:).
It’s a bad Aliens movie but a cool monster movie indeed. The direction (and art direction) is amazing actually. The director and most of the team are french and did some amazing movies. I think they based this one on comic book adaptations of Aliens. They tried to go in a new direction since dark and mysterious had been done. Tried to make humanity feel like the real monsters and there is a horrific deep nihilistic feeling. Which one could argue is the biggest horror we can imagine. Also The characters are pretty cool, but Unfortunately the story itself is just not good and up to the level of previous Alien movies. But truth be told, after Aliens, the quality just kept dropping gradually until we reached the rock bottom with the AvP movies.
I think part of that is because the subsequent sequels/tie ins just got progressively worse and worse. Looking back at this you think; you know what, it wasn't so bad after all. Similar could be said for the Star Wars prequels and the more recently sequel trilogy
Dude that guy was epic he went out like a boss well as boss can be with an alien bursting out your chest he took the evil head dude down with him and saved their lives
I enjoyed Alien Resurrection for being the most deliberately crazy, nutty, over-the-top Alien sequel. You can never say this whacky Alien sequel was boring!
Who doesn't love Ripley's ultimate speech: "There's a monster in your chest. These guys hijacked your ship and sold your cryotube to this.....HUMAN.....and he put an alien inside of you. It's a really nasty one. And in a few hours it's going to burst its way through your ribcage and you're gonna die.....any questions?"
There's an Industrial Death Metal band called Dawn of Ashes with a song called " Abyss" that has this clip on a loop... but the lyrics are a bit degrading/derogatory. Lol just a heads up
@@Lachgummei The Company lab had a series of 'failures' in jars. Ones that were much less human. In the resurrection of this Ellen Ripley she has the predators instincts, yet she's human enough to have discipline & control, as well as be controllable. Something the Xenomorphs would never, ever be. that poor guy used himself and the alien like a meat Claymore to take out one of the Company bosses. It was ages ago when I last saw this movie. Ripley seems like she could have had the ability to command the aliens herself.
To be fair, if you suddenly were told you had hours left to live, your options are either break down crying and screaming for what little remains of your life, or just...accept it and move on. I mean, at least if you were suddenly told you have cancer, you have weeks to live at minimum. EDIT: Part of me thinks he just couldn't process what she was actually saying. Like he couldn't connect what she was saying to reality.
@@mq5731also imagine that, given cryosleep, for your brain saying “see you soon” to your crew mates in your original ship and going to sleep nice and tidy was just minutes ago. Only to wake up suddenly to the worst nightmare that your brain can’t even process. And suddenly someone tells you the nightmare was actually real and you have hours to live.
This is the only person in the entire film that is truly a victim and sympathetic. The Betty crew were kidnapping humans to sell to the military. The military were doing horrible experiments on humans and aliens alike. Ripley is a clone that actually survives anyway, and the Android was hooked up with the Betty kidnappers and survived as well. But this poor guy didn't ask for any of this horrible shit to happen to him. He was just a working stiff that got kidnapped, experimented on and died a horrible gruesome death that he knew was coming for him hours before it happened. The only thing that makes it a little easier is that he hadn't seen it so he couldn't really know how bad it was, or whether it was really true. If he could have really known he probably would have begged to be shot right there on the spot.
His experience, as you described it, sounds a lot like mine facing my ex-wife. " If he could have really known he probably would have begged to be shot right there on the spot" .
J.E.Freeman (Dr. Wren) is also great. Absolutely hateful character. It's funny how the audience forgets about small roles or antagonistic ones only to acclaim the hero roles.
You make it sound as if she's dead, bro. She's still alive and well and acting in movies and TV-shows. If you're such a fan, you can still follow her career.
@@Avatarzillus2000 It's almost impossible to recapture the greatness of the first movie. Even James Cameron knew he couldn't do it and that's why he went in a more action heavy direction for Aliens.
I would've taken this guy. All lives matter. It is possible to remove a chestbuster, it is revealed in this movie and in the comics. However, Larry Purvis didn't make it for the chestbuster did erupt from his chest. But at least he died with honor. He used the last moments of his life to get revenge in Dr. Mason Wren for impregnating him and his friends with facehuggers. The chestbuster burst out of his chest through Wren's head. So he died getting revenge and avenging his fallen comrades.
Im with rob zombie when he said and I'm paraphrasing here, " alien resurrection sucks, you have the most terrifying movie monster ever created and there's winona fucking ryder skipping along the screen"
I know this is wrong, insane and sadistically stupid, but why the in the fuck would they bring them with them? Personally, I would have shot him then and there! And they must be dumb? This is the same crew that has 3 hours before the ship with xenomorphs comes to earth!
2:12 "I'm triple OG Ellen Ripley. The last good thing this franchise will ever know." Resurrection wasn't great but it was entertaining enough to watch multiple times. Basically the Predator 2 of it's franchise.
@@seanbrown2589 Yeah, Predator 2 is way better than Resurrection. Predator 2 is closer to being the "Alien 3" of the Predator movies. This crazy shit is closer to that The Predator trash
I can see why this scene is cut down in the theatrical cut. Some of the extra bits make it funny. And the pause after “what’s in-fucking-side me???!!!!” In the theatrical cut works better than the Doctor immediately screaming back “a parasite” imo.
Does the question ''who are you'' hits a strange cord with anyone else? Kinda remarkable, with those emotions... Your situation layed open for you, just before you were completly in the dark and the most supreme question you have is ''who are you?''...

6/10 movie
This...... human..... put an alien inside you. The way she says "Human" with such contempt.
yes. she makes the word positively pregnant with monstrosity....
The same thought occurred to me.
At least she remembered the term. Rick forgot it when he was talking to Morty and Summer. :D
Probably more along the lines of saying the person who did that doesn’t deserve to be called human
Probably more disgusted with fact humans do this for the damn percentage or some greedy motive, Xenos just do it because that is who they are.
This actor can play a total freakout like nobody else.
Truth nailed 🎯.
Dude that guy was epic he went out like a boss well as boss can be with an alien bursting out your chest he took the evil head dude down with him and saved their lives
Man, I fuckin love this movie. Watching all the characters interact with their campy banter always entertains me.

Her amazing acting was the best thing about this film. Her performance was so different than in the other films.

It’s because she’s the monster’s mother.

because she was entirely different character.
She is a clone..she is another person.
There are also memories in her cells from Repley..
She is not the real Ripley. So her actions are like the Aliens. Cold.

Leland Orser is the man. He plays a psychotic guy in Very Bad Things, and a crazy hologram in Star Trek Voyager.
and his performance in SEVEN,...also a movie called FAULTS...good movie
He was also in Taken 3. Not a big part but I knew I recognized him from Alien 4.
He was also in an episode of Enterprise, during the Season 3 Xindi story arc.

As a Joss Whedon fan I agree.
That dude played a psycho hologram on Star Trek voyager. He did an outstanding job
I love how she tilts her head and looks at him with pure curiosity.
i love that line 'any questions?' lol.
Q: Who are you?
A: I am the monsters mother!
Any questions!
Sigourney Weaver was so amazing in this Film that she was hardly to use for another Roles cause everyone would just see the Alien fighter in her.
She's a great actress. I've watched several other movies with her that I loved.
"I'm the Monsters Mother..." damn well you are, Ripley
"I'm the new Bitch." Says Ripley.
Gnostc Sophia whos child is the Devil God aka Flying Spagetti Monster
This movie is very VERY underrated for what it is
No idea what makes this so greatly underrated. Jeunet brought a very different tone to the saga. And the staff was refreshing.
Feel bad for this poor guy. And makes me hate Wren even more.
“WHAT’S IN FUCKING SIDE ME!!!???” 😁😄😆😂
wow, that guy really had to make it all about him... lol
A PARASITE!🗣️
I might have done the same after hearing the groups conversation 😂
I swear the funny thing was when they was traveling and he started coughing and everyone pointed thier guns at him I died laughing.
"There's a monster in your chest." There's no beating around the bush with Ripley.
BASED!!!!!!!
I feel so bad for him
Poor guy. He went out a hero though. Went down swinging so to speak. He saved the others by killing Wren.
Ripley's performance was cold as ice. Excessively unsympathetic.
Even her mannerisms, here, are Alien-like. You can tell the difference with the 3 previous roles.
It's a trait she inherited from the xenomorphs. She's becoming more like them, a remorseless killer.
Yeah, notice how she says the word "human"... like she is disgusted by it
I loved it.
I loved alien four. It had a really complete and unique atmosphere. Amazing addition to the franchise.
