Just stop. Go make Alien 5 instead.

Rating: 5/10 (11 September 2017)

I'm an Alien fanboy. Loved the original stuff and I thought Prometheus was a decent film but I have to say, Ridley Scott, thanks for bring us Alien and Ellen Ripley but just stop with the rehash, bro.
Do you really need to do the whole alien deposited into space thing again? Does the protagonist need to be a female again? Why are some of these characters so dumb (not as bad as Prometheus tho)? I guess when you have a large cast of humans, you need to find a way to kill them off.
I'd recommend the book over this film. There are some subtle differences in events but I feel like you get more out of each scene with the book. It fleshes out the whys and hows a lot better.
The new aliens were cool. I like how they made references to other films. I don't know how I feel about David being the creator of the xenomorphs though but I guess you could tell it was going in that direction in Prometheus. This movie was just okay. It's better than the movie Life...come on sci-fi horror genre, bring your A game.
