Alien

[Wolf Kanno]

As a child, I always preferred the more actiony Aliens over the slow thriller Alien, but coming back to the films when I got older, I must say I prefer Alien. It's the superior film in it's execution and how it tells you things without actually saying things. Aliens on the other hand has slipped down a bit since it's basically "Vietnam in Space" as some people have described it. I don't know, as I get older, I seem to like James Cameron's work less and less.
