If you are a fan of the Alien franchise, you can't but enjoy the latest installment. Alien: Covenants offers more than a few thrills since Ridley Scott is in top form here while Michael Fassbender is great in a complex and determining role. In general Alien: Covenant is atmospheric as much as uneven. It combines the philosophical features of Prometheus with the horror features of the first Alien. It works but not totally since the sense of deja vu is very strong while the explanation of how everything started doesn't really fit, at least to my eyes, to the Alien mythology. Moreover the action sequence towards ending is boring and predictable. 6/10
