*No development of suspense. First movie did a good job of it.
*Too many annoying characters provided for comic relief. The first one was cheesy, but still had depth that made you care about and enjoy the characters. This movie had virtually no character development. I couldn't even remember a lot of the names, and I didn't care when any of them died.
*Terrible pacing.
*The camera shots in the original were well done so it helped develop suspense and you got a real sense of scale with the aliens. This one failed miserably at this in my opinion.
The nostalgia factor was nice, but with everything I wrote above, this was a failed reboot. The direction they left it in with them all pumped to go take on aLiens in the rest of the universe after they nearly had the planet destroyed again was moronic and made no sense to me
