Owing a strong debt in design to Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977) and 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) (from which it also takes one major character point), some people hold this as good but inferior to James Cameron's sequel, Aliens (1986) which I have never understood or agreed with. It takes its time to get going, but the whole experience is quite remarakable. Bonus for Lord Of The Rings fans as we have a ship which contains both Aragorn (from the lesser-known Ralph Bakshi adaptation) and Bilbo (from the better-known Peter Jackson adaptation).
