1 star for the cat

Warning: Spoilers
Basically, tho g's happen in this movie for no reason.
Have a crew on a spaceship? Sure. Oh, btw, here's a Cat for some reason.
Having a perfectly smooth descent to a planet? Sure? Oh, but the ship all but explodes the instant they touch down. No explanation given.
Oh, ok, so "the company" wants to capture an alien, ok. But we're going to reveal this in a message "for the science officer only." Except he's not there to give clearence- oh wait, he's suddenly there in the computer room when he's supposed to be locked out.
And about that mission to capote an alien? "The company" obviously knows it's there. Why send a mining ship out, and have it check out the planet on its way BACK home? Why not just send a ship full of robots (oh, yeah there's hyper-human-like robots, too) to recover it?
It's like if earth suddenly was hit by a meteorite, except, no meteor came through the atmosphere. There was no crash, but there IS an impact.
Is it atmospheric? Yes.
Is it a classic? Yes.
Is it a movie that paved the way for grwat things? Yes.
Is it good? Maybe…?
Is it enjoyable? No. Unequivocally, no.
The cat was cute, and I'm glad he made it out. Ripley too, but it's hard to get excited by that.
The whole thing is a plot hole, the acting is… Bad. Even Weaver doing her best can't save this. The writing (dialogue) is… Asinine the writing (plot) is abysmal. The sets would be amazing to look at if the DP wasn't performing their own colonoscopy instead of filming.
I could keep on going, I really could. I want to keep ripping on this. It's been touted as such a great film by so many people and it was such a huge disappointment it has made me angry, actually. I feel robbed.
But,again,the cat was cute. So… shrug

The Company doesn’t know about the alien, only someone who works inside the company and was looking to make a fortune off it. Said person didn’t have a ship full of robots lying around to send into deep space to recover it,
Whoever wrote that review was too stupid to pay attention to the movie
