Alien: Covenant | 5/19/2017 | Who needs mystery?

Recommended Posts

Just got home after seeing this, will post a more in depth review later when I have all my thoughts together. For now, all I'll say is that it's definitely nowhere Alien or Aliens, but at the same time it's not as bad as Alien 4 or Prometheus. It's def in the middle where it has some good parts and things going for it, but then at times can be frustrating.

I know it doesn't mean much but I've been hearing good things on Facebook about this from people who have seen advanced screenings. I'm sure it's exaggerated, but someone said "best alien movie yet".

That is a factually incorrect statement. The best Alien movie is the first or second.

I enjoyed the film but...

 

 

one of biggest things I feel Ridley Scott is trying to show us is how you get the perfect alien...the Xenomorph. There's been a lot of different ways to get a alien, in Prometheus and Covenant. In Covenant we finally see it, but are we to assume Walter figured out how? How did he know you need a facehugger in the egg? This is where is disconnected and feel like I missed something.

Damn. This is a big event movie, what is Deadline doing?

Oh well, thank you.

For previews I mean. Generally people are saying 40 give or take for the weekend

Finished watching this movie at IMAX.

 

Was pretty much disappointed.  Good acting but the story wasn't as good and the first half the movie was boring and slow.  Felt like hour and a half of slow.  Some few good action scenes.  Ridley Scott says he is making a interquel as he called it explaining what happened before Covenant and after Prometheus, I would kill him myself!  At least make the next sequel after Covenant!

Spoiler

 

Just got back. It really is Prometheus 2. Dumb characters and really bad decision making. One early twist makes you think the movie might be interesting, but it still manages to be dumb.


 

Eh.

 

(Non-spoiler very brief four sentence reaction to the movie above)

Saw it. Was excited for it. Expected an Alien movie. Got "Prometheus 2.0" instead.

 

Most disappointing release of the year so far. Ridley Scott is out of touch with the franchise that he gave a spark of life to. Let it die.

Just got out give this like a 6.5/10 had some great sequences but the whole film just felt really blah to me and left far more questions then it answered. I think it is time for Scott to hand the franchise over to someone else.
