This one works. Good movie.
This is a stand alone spinoff of the original that doesn't follow the time line. The cast is all new young actors introduced to prepare you for a TV series to follow. You will see the expected shift from FOX to Disney produced movies. If that is to your liking, enjoy the movie, if not then save your money.
Should win Academy award for special efffect.Very Entertaining movie. I don't understand the Aliens purpose. He grow up too fast. He doesn't eat what he kills. How does he get educated. The first movie he had a ship how did he build it when he needs humans to hatch his eggs. What does the human want wth this dump dangerous creature. Harvest his acid. ..The Alien is just a serial killer. That's the problem I have with the movie the Alien has no purpose in life..it should be in his mom's basement not reeking havoc in the universe
I liked it. No slow spots. The Characters were good. And the action and special effects really works. Thumbs up.
I like Magic Fire Alien movies! Dirty Birdies that no like are just Silly Goose! Admiral Ackbar I love Bacon!
I am tired of the same formula. Woman lead. Reusing the same scare formula. Very reminiscent of the older movies. Same punchline, elevators, stupid people. Also the timeline of going from face hugger to full grown Alien is way too fast. Like minutes. I know it is a movie but there is no time awareness. Mixes Alien 1, 2, Prometheus and Covenant.
I was always an alien fan. The first one was like an answer to Star Wars from the dark side. An excellent movie, the second Alien film was great, and on and on the franchise went. Them came Disney and all the greatness of the franchise went away. After watching the trailer I can clearly see that it is a B level attempt at making the next Alien film. I will not go see it, and I would suggest that the REI crowd stop wasting time and money making movies. Leave it to the geniuses among us.
No sigourney
Pure excellence.
Repeats all the key moments from the 1979 original.
