100% Boring

Rating: 1/10 (13 November 2016)

I was looking forward to a decent Alien Movie and hoped this would be one. Not even close. This was so boring the guy next to me was snoring through it. Somehow I stayed awake hoping something might come together. Instead it stayed true in a disjointed fashion with no real plot to speak of. Most of the time the movie was spent trying to decode the Aliens language which was like deciphering an ink blot test. There was a bird in a cage that they brought with them when visiting the alien ship with no explanation why they always had it with them. Amy Adams had lots of flashbacks to being with her daughter back home which really had no coherent reason. I will give Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner a pass keeping in mind their great performances in American Hustle.
