So, 'Alien 2 or: The Return of Valdis in 17 Chapters' is a quirky little gem that leans heavily into comedy while still playing with some nostalgic undertones. Valdis has been away for two decades, and his homecoming is a riot, not just for him but for the audience too. The pacing is a bit erratic, but it adds to the charm, right? Those practical effects have a certain roughness that feels authentic, almost reminiscent of low-budget flicks from the past. Märt and Ott are solid as his buddies, grounding the wildness around Valdis. The film's atmosphere is absurd yet heartwarming, with themes of rediscovery and friendship peppered throughout. It's the kind of film that invites you to reminisce about your own life changes while laughing at the absurdity of it all.
