Fantastic Addition to the Franhise... but Too Much "Hack N Slash"

Rating: 9/10 (19 March 2018)

This isn't really a good "standalone" movie, but being that I have seen all 6 films, it is a fantastic piece to the puzzle. It relates directly to Prometheus, and perfectly introduces the strain of Alien present in "Alien".
It is a bit more gory than I could care for.. I prefer the "lurking in the shadows" sort of Alien from the 1979 film. But, if that is your cup of tea, this functions very well as that type of film.
I don't really understand the complaints here. Yeah, it's not the same vibe as the original Alien, and I do believe Alien and Aliens were better films. But this is a very well done movie and in my opinion, really provides some needed answers to the questions raised in the first films.
