The first alien movie was good. It was nothing special and certainly wasn't as good as people said it was. This movie however, blew the first one out of the water. It one ups its predecessor in practically every possible way.
Sigourney weaver was a much better, and more developed main character and as a result felt so much more likable then in the previous one. Also the side cast in this movie felt like real characters meaning you could get more attached to them and also that their deaths felt more meaningful. And while this movie is more action based and almost completely cast off the horror aspect of the previous one, I would say it was more scary and intense. 9/10.
