Poor Milla, even her sexy fighting couldn't save this poorly written and directed film. Points for the stylized cinematography, but the supporting actors, esp the main villian and over the top and bordering on ridiculous

I hated this movie! cheesy and pathetic. Trading superpowers, bad jokes, and just poor character development. Why did they have to make Sue Storm and witless bridezilla?

Pain not only in my ears but my eyes too...have to see the movie to understand it. Just dull and annoying, my least favorite of the STNG movies. Had some good potential but just never met it unfortunately.

I was so excited to see the third installation. One was good, Two was great, and then Three just sucked. The scene with dancing Peter Parker was painful to watch. Was there some competition to squeeze as many villians in to the movie as possible? It was near impossible to explore the villians character and connect with them. They just ended up being a collection of people in colorful suits throwing things at spiderman.

Sad near ending to the terminator series. Poorly written obviously forced in to production for the bucks. Now the prequelesque christian bale as john conner looks pretty good.

Not Kevin Bacon as his best, at least he made it a bit easier to play 6 degrees of kevin bacon.

I still liked it, just because its an Alien movie, but it really didn't have the feel of the other 3. Winona Ryder was a fun addition and I liked Ripleys hybridness, added a bit of darkness to her character. But the alien baby was just horrible and silly. I could go for an ALien 5 with Ripley going crazy and killing people lol.

First of all I'm not a huge SW fan, so take this review with a grain of salt. Overall it was kinda dull, boring story, horrible dialogue, and annoying characters (esp the idiotic droids). The only redeeming part of the movie was the one unexpected piece that made us all laugh. Stop reading if you want to see it still...Drag Queen The Hut was hilarious!! Supposedly its Jabba's uncle, but the guy is covered with makeup, wears a feather headdress like a 20's flapper, and sounds like Truman Capote. "I love that little hutlet!!" Just think of it as the pilot for the animated series that is suppose to come out later.
