I’ve always thought JPJ was a terrible choice to direct this movie. His abstract tone doesn’t fit in with Aliens real-world stakes. What I loved about the first two films was how the characters felt so relatable while dealing with such an unimaginable situation. Alien Resurrection gave the whole thing a fantastical quality that took me out of it.
