Watch Wreckage and Rage: Making 'Alien³' For Free

Memorable, crazy movie

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

I didn't like Alien 3, in fact I'd say it's the worst one by a decent margin.This feature length making of documentary fails on nearly every front. The interviews are minimal and quite frankly with the wrong people. There is very little on the sfx or making of stories and tales.The entire thing in fact has very little content. I know that sound strange considering its hefty runtime but it drags, repeats itself and doesn't cover many of the essential things these types of documentaries generally do.For the fans and the fans alone.The Good:Couple of interesting bits nestled away deepThe Bad:So boringPoorly constructedDoesn't follow the tried & tested formulaThings I Learnt From This Movie:The general vibe I got was they sabotaged it from the outset and knew it was going to fail

"I think that they knew that I had given my blood and my every milliliter of my sweat trying to make it work, but I guess that I just wasn't clever enough to come up with something that would really blow everybody away and be something completely different.""It was just set up wrong to begin with. It was a very sort of bad period for us, in this film, because we were fighting a losing battle all the time."This is how this documentary starts out; an honest and painful admission of failure. I found it thoroughly refreshing, and it went a long way towards endearing the third film which this documents, to the Fiend.This Making Of documentary is every bit as informative and inclusive as are the first two; more so, even, in that it goes to great pains to explain exactly... what went wrong. By the time it was done, I was in a much better frame of mind, where Alien 3 is concerned, because when I started this run of reviews, I seriously hated this installment, where now, I give it a 6.2/10. That's a good three point jump from where I initially had it rated.This is a wonderful experience which I highly recommend to anyone who loves this franchise.It rates a 10/10 on the Documentary Scale from...the Fiend :.

All DVD's should come with extras as exhausting as the ones in the new ALIEN QUADRILOGY box set. When ALIEN 3 first came out, I was disappointed with it. Later, as I was able to ween myself off of the expectations James Cameron's relentless ALIENS set up, it became a favorite of mine. This documentary goes to great lengths not to just dissect the movie, but also to show just what film studios typically put creative people through. We get interviews with Michael Biehn, detailing how upset he was at the killing off of his character. We get a look, in story boards, at an abandoned version of the film that was larger in scope. And we see some of the studio ineptitude that prevented the film from being all it could be. That David Fincher could nonetheless create a film as uncompromising as he did is a true testament to his talent. I loved this!
