diogo13 T @Tua_mera 15h Revisiting Alien recently, I realized that much of the film's magic lay in discovering things in real time alongside the characters. Almost nothing is explained through expository dialogue; instead, knowledge is gained through discovery. See more Matt S @RT99157564 Jun 27 Pretty bad. Ridiculous decisions by all crew members throughout the whole movie. Was shaking my head throughout almost the whole thing. Some decent scenes, but to little too late. (why was the bioweapon released? just because? this needed to be explored/ explained way more) Almost turned it off halfway through. VERY predictable ending, saw it coming a mile away (apparently none of the crew did). Only positives are Michael Fassbender is great and there are pretty cool visuals and effects but that is not even close to enough to save this one. What a shame. This could have been super great with proper writing and realistic decisions made by a competent crew. Just save yourself the time and skip this one. Shame. One word describes this movie: Stupid.

See more Kay T. @kayden633 Jun 24 The people in this movie are sub 80 IQ. I mean absolute ridiculous stuff . Nearly turned the movie off midway through because of how ridiculously stupid the people in the movie are. What terrible writing See more James R @RT71252014 Jun 4 Alien is my favourite movie of all time, and even I hate this one. The thing about Covenant is that Ridley Scott seemed more interested in making a movie about an AI jealous of humanity that tries to create its own artificial life, and then realized "Oh crap, we need to throw a Xenomorph in there." The actual alien portion of the movie is really at the very end and is only maybe 10-20 minutes long. This movie is kind of just too long and boring. I don't feel connected to the characters (I don't even remember the main character's name), and they all make stupid, irrational decisions. The best part of the movie was Michael Fassbender's David. He's always an interesting character. But, yeah. The Alien franchise has a few bad movies, and this is one of them. See more C J @X300-Chris May 24 Ridley Scott needs to stop! I’m sick of his bad writing and dumb characters who are infamous for poor decision making. Great visuals aren’t enough, it also needs good and coherent writing. See more Read all reviews
