Its really well shot and manages to have a large cast of characters all of whome have their own believable personalities and act in a realistic fashion.
Watching the prequels recently what struck me wasnt the FX being CGI, honestly I think they look pretty good but rather than its just a generic monster movie and the characters are merely fodder for the beast.

Correct. First movie was fabulous. An all time great. Nothing more associated with the "franchise", if you can even call it that has any value at all.
The only effects scene that doesn’t hold up well in the original is when Windows is being thrashed in the blood test scene. The fake legs whipping about are quite bad. But, it’s not a huge deal.
