Personally, Aliens is the best one for me. It has an amazing mix of drama, horror and action that has no visible flaws aside from a somewhat weak performance by the Weyland-Yutani guy.

Alien is an excellent film and one of my top 10 horror movies of all time but the whole thing with the cat at the end seemed rather silly to me. I'm not a pet person so you can call me callous but going back for the cat seemed like a really stupid decision by such an intelligent character as Ripley.

So Ripley would leave the cat to die because she's "intelligent"? She obviously cares about the cat, it's a living being like any other and at that point in time, the only companion she can have if she does manage to save it.

I think when you say you're "not a pet person", really what you're meaning to say there is that animal lives don't matter. Ripley clearly wouldn't agree with you.

I like animals, but nope it isn't a smart decision to risk your life to save a cat.
