"Some critics consider this chapter to be better than the first, but the two movies are vastly different: Ridley Scott's is a scary horror film, whereas James Cameron's is a high-tech actioner with superlative set-pieces."—Emmanuel Levy, EmmanuelLevy.comhttp://emanuellevy.com/search/details.cfm?id=13796
