Complementary to the series BUT nothing special!!!

Rating: 6/10 (21 May 2017)

Having followed the Aliens Franchise since its inception in 1979, I have always approached every movie in this franchise with great anticipation. Most fans would agree that Aliens 3 and 4 were disappointments and although many felt the same way about Prometheus... I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Having said this... Covenant didn't move me like Prometheus. I realize that it is always difficult to improve upon an original but this movie has brought the series to a plateau.
There are moments in the movie that excite and thrill but overall it really doesn't add anything to the franchise. Honestly, I believe that the franchise needs a fresh set of eyes and vision. Ridley Scott has taken Aliens as far as he can take it!!!
