Aliens l'éveil

First of all, things are really well explained on this one.

And that is what makes it so fascinating to watch.

They do a lot with animation, and most of the film uses a lot of cgi to add the fights with the aliens in a more realistic way.

Many science fiction films love to draw attention to their futuristic technology but the characters in Aliens o despertar react in a different way, the company already knows about what happend in Aliens, and we see a lot of the story connected to it, and that draw my attention even more, i liked the way both Alien and Aliens exist, within the universe of this fan film, and that´s cool.

This is a film of great tension and subtly, well worth seeing over and over again.

This nail-biting picture contains tension from start to finish , gory scenes aplenty , thrills , some strong scares , slime , emotion , entertainment and good acting.

The atmosphere is pure genius. Gothic, claustrophobic and sometimes baroque. The use of light and dark is beyond description, the use of sound is as creepy as it gets, specially in the scenes inside the spaceship were the alien goes from air duct to air duct killing all the crew, and what´s left of the mercenaries are tracking him, we can see the force and speed of the alien even in animation, with a few shots also in stop motion, this fan film is taken to it´s limits in budget to stay faithful to the franchise, and i was impressed by the amount of information it creates making a bridge on alien and aliens, with the future of Weyland Yutani corporation only caring about the alien itself again, and sending various teams to the planet in order to get one alive for army division.

A very good sign in terms of making a good tribute.

So it´s.

The settings in this film are exhilarating and claustrophobic, the characters are funny and likeable and we want them to survive, the creatures are horrifying and vile, and the storyline is tense and exciting.

The aliens do have humanoid form but they don't give a single emotion, they attack in packs and kill all humans.

What I particularly like is how the characters are written. They are not Hollywoodized heroes, in fact, there is no hero. They're just people which makes them even more threatened.

The main villain is Weyland Jr. He appears only in the beginning, but we see that don´t care about the lives they sent to lv426, they only want the aliens.

There´s much of animation used but it think that´s because of the budget, to make a movie like this.

From the intro of the movie, till his last breath in the post credits scene, this is a outstanding fan film mixing two of the best movies of the alien franchise together, and also mixed into live action and animation.

The music is fantastic, the direction is incredible, and as for the Aliens, there are various types of them in the movie, i´m also a fan of the aliens comic books, so it was a surprise for me when i saw something connected with that.

They did a terrific job in investigation for this fan film, no wonder there are still people interested in this franchise, and seeing in the beginning how it all started with the engineers, awesome, awesome movie.

I am just going to add my voice to the chorus of praise for this movie, suely it has some flaws, but all is excusable because it´s a fan film.

The director is well known by making these kind of tributes to old movies, and i always love what he can do on a small budget like this.

From start to finish this is perfectly made entertainment with every frame minutely conceived to be the best. The music is eerily gripping and suspenseful.

The horror and gore quotient hasn't been reduced at all, this is definitely not a film for the kids. But oodles of gripping suspense and guns blazing action violence is the main thing here.

The cast is efficient and all do a good job.

Although it runs for 110m, this is a film that never runs out of steam.
