don't understand all the extreme negative reviews

Rating: 10/10 (19 June 2017)

first, i am NOT a die hard Alien fan, I simply enjoy this kind of movies.
So many reviews say the plot is not believable or characters do stupid things, what about James Bond? Fast & Furious? Star Wars? Spiderman? etc.. , are those plots believable? are the characters always taking the most rational decisions? NO , that is because those are movies, not real life documentaries, exactly same thing for Alien Covenant.
The special effects are very well done, the story I thought was not that good and there were some things rather silly but all in all its an enjoyable sci-fi / action movie, however in the same style Life is better.
