It isn’t so much as in “retrospect” about Alien that makes it a decent film as opposed to a great film, so much as I one described it to my brother as Jaws in space. Which I don’t know if I coined that or not, as I think I read another describing it as such.
It is definitely full of atmosphere (*snicker*) and has a a unique style but outside of Ripley, the other characters were ill defined.
Good film, falls short of being great. But I do recognize it’s place in history and understand others who feel differently

EDIT: Hadn't read that Rodent had already addressed this way better than I did.
