Tried and failed to remake the original

Rating: 4/10 (30 September 2019)

This movie is the equivalent to the new Jurassic World/Star Wars/Terminator. Pretty much the same set up as the first. Too much CGI Alien, too much of the Alien in open well lit shots. The chest bursting scene looks so terrible Alien vs Predator is a better movie than this. And that is very sad to say that I prefer that "origin" story to this failure. How many times is the chick going to survive in Alien movies it's kinda overdone. Danny McBride's character just didn't work for me. They make every stupid decision known to man which makes no sense they're suppose to be really smart scientists. Why haven't we seen what earth looks like in the Alien universe? There is so much to explore but they just wanted to try and make an Alien remake on this one. If it wasn't for Fassbender it'd deserve a one star.
