Suspense, gore and a perfect 10 for Alien: Covenant

Rating: 10/10 (19 May 2017)

I saw this movie with my partner, 5 days after its release in the U.K. Going in to the movie we were both fans of the original quadrilogy and the after mentioned Prometheus movie. The following may contain *Spoilers*
I was frustrated to read such poor reviews and an IMDb score of 7.0 before watching this movie, however I kept my mind open and was eager to enjoy this movie....and. Oh boy did I enjoy it!! I loved it!!!
From the cast selected to the suspense and the loss of loved ones in this movie along with the creative kills and use of the xenorphs, this is a special entry in the new alien franchise. Will I ever take a shower with music on again?! Nope!! Will I go for a pee in the forest?! Nope!
This movie is accompanied by a fantastic score which adds the tension especially in the 'med bay' scene.
I cannot wait for the release of this movie on blu ray.
I recommend that you forget that original alien movies (especially 1&2) and enjoy this for what it is. Big fans of the franchise will see that moments from 1,2 & 3 of the alien movies were used in new scenes and I loved the fact that these were included.
10/10 for the cast, the score, the screenplay and the tension!!
