The trouble with Yara (2021) is that in its attempt to tell the whole story, it struggles to tell a consistently engaging story.

James Cameron’s “Aliens” (1986) is a pinnacle of science fiction storytelling. Within this classic monster movie lies a powerful female character, Ellen Ripley (brilliantly portrayed by Sigourney Weaver).
