  Alien3: 2003 Special Edition (Alien Quadrilogy Boxed Set) (1992)
I admit that I initially was somewhat displeased with Alien3, mostly because of the shocking character developments that occurred in it.
Part of the reason Alien3 was almost doomed to receive less than a terrific response came from the fact that Aliens left them little creative wiggle-room.
Alien3 appears in an aspect ratio of approximately 2.35:1 on this single-sided, double-layered DVD; the widescreen image has been enhanced for 16X9 televisions.

 INKPOT MOVIE REVIEWS: ALIEN3 (Julian Lim)
That the prisoners resemble monks, with their bald heads and their "vows of celibacy", is first seen as something of an ironic joke by the inmates, but it takes on a certain reality : a sealed, monastic community forced to contemplate the end.
As in SE7EN, Fincher's most unsettling images linger not on killing but on the remains of bodies -- the autopsy of the child, the diced flesh of a convict hanging off the walls, and a scene where one survivor's face is sprayed with the blood of a friend as he watches him killed.
Alien3 moves from sin to ambiguous redemption, SE7EN goes the other way, beginning with a weird but mundane depression (living in New York) and gradually attains a critical level toward sin where the process of enunciation implies an agent whom Freeman and Pitt must capture, in other words define.

 Alien 3 (1992)
However, I think that's a fault inherent in the script itself, not a problem that resulted from Fincher's direction; he keeps the picture flowing along at a nice pace, and his knack for the visual realm helps spice up quite a lot of less than scintillating material.
Alien3 includes the same four trailers (one per film) that come with the Aliens and Resurrection DVDs.
The final extra found with the Alien3 DVD is in the booklet, in which we get some passable biographies of cast and crew.

 Alien3 Mainpage
ALIEN3 wasn't received very well by the general population, I don't blame them for that, the first time I saw it, I didn't really care for it much either.
The only real problem with ALIEN3, is that it has major holes in the plotline, such simple things as:"How the devil did that egg get onboard the Sulaco?" and stuff like that.
A shame, because ALIEN3 really has it's bright moments, especially the birth of the "bambi" Alien and the death of Ripley (speaking in the way they're filmed, not what they portray).

 Emanuel Levy : Review - Alien3
The visual imagery and gloomy tone of Alien3, which announces the debut of gifted director David Fincher, are the two chief reasons to see the movie in the theater--unless you happen to be a fan of the film series that began 13 years ago.
Alien3 is mostly noteworthy for its visual conception (the cinematography is by Alex Thomson) and art direction.
A grim tale with religious overtones about people at the end of their rope, Alien3 could be read as a metaphor for AIDS.

 the agony booth forum - Alien3 - Assembly Version   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
To me, a highlight of the disc is that they managed to do a rather thorough documentary on the film, and yet the director (David Fincher) wasn't involved with it at all, due to continued bitterness over what went on during filming.
I agree, the Quadrilogy's bonus disc on Alien3 was one of the most interesting to me. That movie went through many extremely different incarnations before ending up as it did.
Alien3 does it with amazing speed (I think it may be a full three minutes after the opening credits), and slightly less amazing speed in the assembly version.

Now, when I first saw Alien3, I fell in love with it.
Taken apart from the series, Alien3 is a fine film.

Alien3 is a much slower paced movie than the rest.
This is my favorite of the four simply because it has such great visuals and in my opinion a great storyline.
Let it be known however that most people will not agree with me. In many cases, Alien3 was the least favorite.

 Alien3 - Movie Review
Problem 2 is the lazy script-writing which for some reason deems the relationships Ripley formed with Newt and Hicks (Carrie Henn and Michael Biehn) in the last movie surplus to requirements.
When the alien gives chase it's as scary as it ever was previously in the series, but the major difference this time is that you'll struggle to feel any empathy for its prey.
If Ripley was a survivor in 'Alien' and a fighter in 'Aliens', in 'Alien3' she's a cold-hearted quitter, operating entirely without even the smallest smattering of hope.

 American Cinematographer: DVD Playback April 2003
But a direct comparison of both sets reveals that there is still much to be seen in the velvet darkness of deep space from the points of view of four very different directors.
What is presented alongside the 114-minute theatrical cut is a fascinating glimpse of what might have been: a 144-minute work print that features some storyboard sequences and occasional subtitles in lieu of missing dialogue.
Supplements for Alien3 run over to disc six and include The Making of Alien3, another incredible package that documents all aspects of production; its emphasis is on the origins of the story and some of the ill-conceived ideas that sparked disagreements between Fox and the filmmakers.

However, this film is largely considered to be a financial and critical failure.Nevertheless, his career rebounded with the dark thriller SE7EN, and his rise as an innovative filmmaker has continued, putting him in the forefront of his post-video director contemporaries.

Her employers then tried to incubate one in her and she up having to fight the mother alien, one bitchy piece of slime.
She shortly finds herself on the prison colony Fury 161, home to an all-male sect of violent repeat offenders who have turned to religion in their own twisted way.
Despite the title's promised two new dimensions of acid-blooded terror, Alien3 is much more like the original, with a single alien creeping around those omnipresent ventilation ducts.

 The World According to Allyn · On Alien3
(The odd thing is, I said at the time Alien3 came out that I could imagine Danny Elfman’s Batman score over some scenes in Alien3; ironic since Ronenthal followed Elfman on the Batman films.) Rosenthal doesn’t write music, he writes noise.
Alien3 didn’t have horrific music in the background, it had a lot of loud brass instruments blaring.
Alien3 was content to be its own film, and a visually stylish one at that.

No sooner is Ripley speeding away from the napalm-laced carnage of Aliens than she finds herself crashing into a prison planet full of Brits.
Relentlessly dark and filled with unsympathetic characters, Alien3 is not loved by many.
While there is undoubtedly some fascinating gossip still to be told about the fraught production of Alien3, at least Fox has allowed frank comments to be aired.

11 years later and the extended version reveals the near masterwork Alien3 should have been.This version is a worthy successor to the works of Scott and Cameron.
The subplot of the religious cult on Fury 161 fully fleshed out, the alien effects properly developed, the outside walk by Charles Dance used in the trailor but cut from the movie and the caging of the beast sequence a revelation not even hinted at in the original version.
This is a wonderfully dark 3rd actwhere arguably the series should've ended(unless they do the alien homeworld movie Alien3 was orginally going to be)The excellent documentary films on disc 2 are a masterclass in how NOT to make a film and show what inspired ideas were wasted in the development of the film.

It's pretty much unanimous among fans of the movies that "Alien3" is awful.
The film is dull, depressing and uninteresting Director David Fichner ignored the ingenious vision brought forward by Scott and Cameron and made "Alien3" more of a straightforward horror movie, whereas the other films went much deeper.
But in the interest of saving time, I'll leave you with a word of advice: don't ever see "Alien3".

Movie (Alien3): The zooming view down the tunnel in "It's War!" is an Alien3 reference.
Note: Because the camera is twisting upside-down, and Conker runs to the end of the tunnel and closes a door shut on the spider-like enemies that are chasing him, I am inclined to believe this is an Alien3 reference, but I could be wrong.
Movie (Saving Private Ryan): The war chapter also spoofs Saving Private Ryan.
