1) Sigourney Weaver's character: she's rude, arrogant, smug, completely unlikeable.
...and yet we're constantly being told how beautiful, intelligent and desirable she is. Every man she comes into contact with seems to fall in love with her. Um, no.
2) Sigourney Weaver is woefully miscast. This role MIGHT have worked with another actress. I kept thinking what other 80's actress might have been able to pull it off. Jessica Lange? Michelle Pfeiffer perhaps? Not sure. But not Sigourney.
If you want to see Sigourney au naturel a lot, you might like this. Thankfully, Sigourney went straight from this set to another little film called "Aliens," which much, much better suited her abilities.
