Excellent Movie

Rating: 8/10 (20 May 2017)

Alien story unfolds and it keeps you on the edge of your seat. Waiting for this movie to hit theaters seemed like forever and I really enjoyed it for what it is - Giger style, space horror, expressive, powerful, graphic and dark. I could probably write a really long explanation about space ship quarantine, visiting a new world without a special pressurized suit and all but if those guys from Star Trek did not need explanations for it so why should Ridley Scott spend valuable screen time on this. I really liked how possible length issues were solved with releasing parts of the movie on the web and this really helped stitch the story together and make the plot complete rather than having to wait for another cut to come out in time. Although predictable at times, the movie did not ruin the scare and it was more believable than Prometheus. Don't wait for the DVD version! Go and see it while it's hot! If you still didn't like it after seeing it then maybe Marvel is your thing. 8 out of 10! Can't wait to see what the next one is about.
