Yup. It should have been a movie abut enforcers hunting bad bloods. That would have been a good movie. This was bs.

These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.

I think that was a video game plot earlier in the franchise.
Would make a good movie plot, too. For sure.

But we're long past the age when such characters can exist.
Agreed. Ripley was what you get when you take the 'final girl' all the way to her logical end point; a total bad ass whose bad ass because her experiences made her that way. Underrated brand of character that in this new fangled age of super soldiers and super powered whatsimawhosits.
Pretty much. Ripley's most famous superpower is the ability to run a walking forklift really well. Other than that, her combat prowess is mostly amateur level, it's just her dogged mental attitude that makes her a great heroine. She just grits her teeth and gets stuff done when pushed to the limits, rather than being an expert.

What a piece of sh....
I saw the first one when I was a kid.. This movie destroyed my illusion of watching again a good film of one of my favorite characters.

Got round to watching it - fun piece of nonsense 
Amusing one liners, good action - enjoyed it.
