Utter tripe

Rating: 1/10 (17 August 2017)

Should be a zero, but that isn't an option unfortunately.
It's bizarre that both Prometheus and now Covenant have more or less trashed the Alien franchise. What's more shocking is the 3 books released to coincide with the new films are immeasurably better. That's 'Sea Of Sorrows', 'Out Of The Shadows' and 'River Of Pain'.
It's a shame that the books weren't used to script the films.
Equally a shame that Neill Blomkamp never got a shot, as the newer Alien films are dire. Honest Trailers got it right when they said there are now more bad than good Alien films.
Prometheus was bad but watchable. Covenant is just bad.
