    Oh boy. I was really hoping to love this, but there was nary a character in this movie that I gave a damn about, and the most interesting curiosities that I might have had for a sequel to Prometheus are largely ignored here. What it does carry over from Prometheus are the "supposedly intelligent characters making amazingly boneheaded decisions" routine. Alien: Covenant mostly plays like a mediocre 80s slasher flick, but without the low budget charm that often makes those movies dumb fun.

    Maybe a director's cut can turn this into a more interesting movie, but as it is, this personally feels like the least re-watchable movie in the mainline series. I really can't believe that Ridley Scott thought he was going to turn heads with this movie, and in retrospect makes it seem silly that he ever had a problem with James Cameron's Aliens (or any other movie in the series). I expected so much more out of this.

      Editing … Hehe...You're not the only one, as the movie did get some positive reviews, but I agree much more with the negative reviews this time. If anything, the movie does end in a cliffhanger that admittedly makes me very interested in how it will eventually play out. Ugh....I'm in too deep to not want to see the next movie.
