A Turkey Shoot, of the Wrong Kind

Rating: 3/10 (13 May 2017)

Saw this last night, a 5 year wait since Prometheus in which time Ridley assured us all the missing answers spanning Alien-Aliens- Prometheus would be answered, wrong, If you saw this before seeing any of the previous efforts listed above you'd be pretty happy with what was served up to you, all I saw was a convoluted pile of corporate by the numbers syfi (others will go into greater detail with the finer points), All your questions will be answered seamlessly Ridley assured us with all the conviction of a Snake Oil Salesman, yes Ridley you seamlessly interlaced all your previous movies into this one
1/ Walters/David fight resulting in the winner removing his hand to other wise convince the rest he is the nice safe robot - Hannibal any one ?
2/ The dispatching of the Alien via releasing the on-board HGVs via the open cargo hold letting then roll over the side into oblivion, - Thelma and Louise, Susan and Gina would have kicked the Aliens ass
3/ The Walter/David interface - The Counsellor, I know cheap shot , but did Ridley use Fassbenders acting in this to a precursor of W/D
Last night saw the death of this franchise, you deserve what you get if you allow yourself to be convinced again to spend your hard earned dosh on any more Ridley Scott infused Alien fodder.
But its just not him selling this tosh, before the main event we had up and coming previews of the Mummy and the next Transformers , and when they are presented to you one after the other its the same slam bam thank you mam, they have run out of ideas and are reliant of big name directors who's better days are behind them to churn out this.
I can only hope Bladerunner restores my faith , if not give it to the new directors coming through the ranks, they /we deserve better
