What is the problem here? (Spoiler)

Rating: 7/10 (8 August 2017)

So many bad reviews about this movie. Most of them because the movie wasn't realistic enough? The crew didn't make realistic decisions, etc etc. It's a movie folks. These bad reviewers are just whiners. Who goes to an ALIEN movie expecting a solid storyline? You go to watch people get mauled by xenomorphs and watch things pop out of people's chest. If all of these bad reviewers made this movie, no one would die and there would be no aliens because the crew would be perfect and not land on the questionable planet. They would stay on coarse and start a colony on the intended planet. End of movie, roll credits.
Yes, the crew makes bad decisions. Yes , people in the real world would not do what these guys do. Yes there are some story flaws. The alien grows at an accelerated rate from other movies. Yes they walk on the new planet without space suits. (These are all complaints from other reviews).maybe the crew is incompetent. And so what if there is an airborne method of the spores being ingested. Who cares? Maybe the filmmakers are trying to introduce new things to the franchise to freshen it up. Every other alien movie has a crew making decisions that end up getting them killed. This is no different.
As far as I am concerned, this fits right in with the other movies in the franchise and it's certainly better than 3 and 4. The only issue I had was the length. There could have been a lot cut out without taking away from the story (ie. the flute scene)
Overall , this movie gets off to a good start and has good action throughout, but also some boring stuff in between. The story is flawed, but not flawed enough to give it 1/10 stars. Don't listen to all those whining reviews that such and such wouldn't happen in real life. It's a movie. Most of those reviews are written by people who need to put down the dungeons and dragons and get out of their parents basement for some sunshine. The special effects were great and the movie is visually amazing. The new alien creatures were a nice touch and there are some new twists on old gimmicks. I think it works well with building up to the first alien and I'm looking forward to the next one!!
