Their Alien review has been attracting a lot of publicity on YouTube. There’s actually a video on the subject made by a YouTube user who is a fan of the series and I think you should check that video out. The user’s name is Alien Theory, who is actually a fan of Ebert.
Hey Patrick, I appreciate you telling me about this video: it was very informative and very entertaining! Here is the link for the rest of you who are interested in seeing a well-crafted documentary. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9x_qCASfFg
I always wonder why they would give it a mild positive review, then criticize the film in their Invasion of the Outer Space movies special. Of all of the Ebert reviews of the Alein series, I like his 2003 Great Movies essay the best.
