You know it's easy to pretend to be superior and hate something that's genre fun! But I'll tell you flat out I enjoyed Alien Covenant! I like that it was a sort of duel between the androids and that we were dealing generationally with a long running situation. That gave me a segue into the story so I could make it mine! It was great to see some things coming and it was fun to share some surprises. Add to that likable characters, realistic setting and people who simply would not listened when you tried to warn them not to do something! - Haa! - Way Fun! Specially when watched with some of your mates! ~;0) VivaChas!

Boring .In the original Alien, when the first alien comes out of John Hurt's body, it came as a shock. The Covenant movie repeated this schene several times, which got to be boring.

The special effects are great, the characters are interesting, and the movie makers made interesting use of the original concepts, such as the bio-mechanics of the late H.R. Giger. This newest of the ALIEN series is disturbing in its violence and bloodshed, the Alien creatures are a lot more deadly and vicious, and seem almost like demons rather than alien life forms. The homosexual content would have been better left on the cutting room floor. Overall, the movie is worthy of my ALIEN library of movies, unlike ALIEN REQUIEM, which is filled with horrible profanity and vulgarity, needlessly.

Pros: It was entertaining, had good visuals, continued the story line, and good believable acting. Cons: The story could have been better written, and more believable. Characters made stupid decisions, that hurt the legitimacy (interrupting the flow of the movie), conflicted with the professionalism, logical course of the storyline, and it's believability. It could have been so much more. The writers, directors, and producers sold the movie short of its greatness! Fell short for me, left me wanting more, and a better ending. Disapointed!

Definitely was not what I was expecting for this show series. The characters were engaging the plot was okay, they did Stretch A few to fill in the time. The ending was not what I expected well for that fact neither was the beginning. It does leave you with some questions that are unanswered. With the way they ended this I'm not sure that they'll be able to do another alien movie.

I feel Ridley Scott left out some scenes that I hoped were in the film. Why didn't he show Noomi (E. Shaw) fix David,s head back on? Why didn't he show more about David's unethical work during the 10 years? Thank you, icandudat

While looking on E-Bay, I came across the DVD Alien, even though it is much like the old Alien movies, It still gives great performances and kept you guessing. I Think this is a Great buy and Price.

I enjoyed Prometheus and thought this sequel would explain more of the history of the creators of the alien Creatures and their home world. was a fun watch but expected more from the story.
