Quote from: Darth Vile on Jun 16, 2012, 04:44:20 PMHard to tell, RT lists Ebert's review as being posted in 2000, though it's from 1986. Either way, the film was critically lauded on release. Probably the only Alien film to receive such positive critical reviews upon its theatrical showing. Critics were kinder to Alien later.
I think it's a safe bet that most of those are retrospective reviews...
