Aliens on DVD is fantastic. I've been a fan of this film out of the 4 films made because of its pure action packed nature and it keeps you glued right up to the edge of your seat.
The advantages of this DVD is that there are extra minutes which were cut out of the original release. Some of these extra scenes are a complete waste of time such as Ripley chatting to Burke before the mission. But some of them really help to set the scene and add to the tention.
The animated scene access controls are one of the best things about this DVD too. Its like you are comanding a group of colonial marines around as you select what you want to do.
This DVD is like all DVD's should be, extra scenes not added to the original prodution, photo galaries, behind the scenes documentary. FANTASTIC - the Dolby suround sound in this feature is boombing and very well produced, adding a whole lot to the tension. The only DVD I have seen better than this is perhaps "The Thing".
Cheers All Alex
