I found that the directors of this series of films may not be well-known at the time, but in the future they are all internationally renowned directors, and they all have great works.
The first part wins in the creation of the atmosphere. The loneliness and gloom in the universe make people look so lonely and helpless in the face of sudden danger. The sense of fear slowly penetrates into the skin, blood, and bone marrow, as if When the rainy days come, the rheumatism that will appear can be temporarily forgotten, but it will always follow. The second part was won by the sense of rhythm. The scene was changed from the first spaceship to a space base. The closure of the sense of closure eased the fear of the environment, so the director shifted the focus. Let the film always maintain a wave of narrative rhythms that have not yet settled, and can not tolerate a moment of nap, which makes people breathless and can't stop.
The first one is more like a thriller, with many suspenseful appearances. The first protagonist does not have many appearances, but it makes people shudder even more. It fully proves that invisible ghosts are the most scary horror principle. The second one feels more like an action movie, with a grand scene, especially the final battle between Ripley and Alien with a kind of tragedy like a strong man breaking his wrist and desperate to death.
But one thing is similar, that is, they all have a touch of warmth. At the end of the first part, the cat who lives with Ripley is the only spiritual comfort after a desperate fight. The second part interprets the warmth more deeply. The appearance of the little girl makes Ripley bear a heavy responsibility for protection, and also inspires her infinite courage and fighting spirit, so that she can win a big victory in the end and save her life. Cameron is indeed good at handling such subjects, and there is no lack of exquisiteness behind the big background and scenes, which is very rewarding.
