Another disappointment

Rating: 3/10 (20 December 2018)

It's sad to see the Alien series go from classic scifi horror thriller to cheap scifi action. Not cheap in the monetary sense; the visuals in this film are pretty impressive. Everything else is basically a let down. Essentially a film about a reckless, irresponsible and unprofessional crew and the crap that happens to them as a result of their reckless, irresponsible and unprofessional behaviors. Also they say "f**ck" and its derivations a lot.
I wonder if it would have been less disappointing if not associated with the Alien franchise. The premise had potential, but a fairly weak script. The film does have some good moments, but it's so hard to enjoy it through the "ugh, why" feeling.
The awful, predictable ending loses a whole star from me.
