It's something like Prometheus 2.0 but worse!

Rating: 4/10 (21 May 2017)

I was expecting to see an Alien's prequel instead a bad sequel of Prometheus slightly connected to the original franchise.
Prometheus 2... Sorry, Covenant starts with an accident in a spaceship, some people die and the spaceship's team finds an unknown planet, they decide to visit a stranger planet because they're stupid and a lot of bad things happen.
This movie can be resume in an attempt of Ridley Scott trying to resurrect the Alien franchise, however he doesn't make it right. The character development is poor, we don't feel anything when someone dies (sometimes we ask who's that character we've seen being killed), the actors are on the movie only to die in some scenes without charisma and tension. The plot is weak, full of BIG plot holes, full of uninteresting scenes. It's all about what happened after Prometheus and David's plan, I must confess he's so annoying, only thinking about creation and boring things. However, this film has some good things, Michael Fassbender and Danny McBride are good on it, Katherine Waterston looks good but her character could be more used. The special effects are fine for the budget and the cinematography is awesome.
Alien Covenant is boring and has lack of suspense, thrilling scenes and a good story. It could work if they produced a good sci-fi thriller with deeper character development, showed less about David's purpose and gave us more scenes with the big black villain because even Alien VS Predator had more blood and aliens on screen.
Ridley Scott should move away from this franchise, the fans would say thanks.
