Script by James Cameron remains true to the previous movie, even borrowing some crucial elements of its plot; yet, despite all those similarities, script manages to add new twists to the story and remains original. The most notable difference between those movies is in a genre; the first one was dark, disturbing, and slow-paced horror which relied on a thick atmosphere of anxiety and claustrophobia; the second one is an war movie, that relies on a clever combination of suspense and non-stop action thrills, that brings ALIENS clearly to the action genre territory. | |
