An interesting movie that kept me going to the end

Rating: 7/10 (16 August 2017)

There are a whole host of really bad reviews for this movie. Personally I enjoyed, if I had read all the negatives I wouldn't have done. What interests me about this story, is the story behind galactic colonization. The fact that just one micro-organism on a new planet could be harmful for human life and the dangers that presents. Yes, it was essentially an Alien clone, but I thought it was well done. The Alien was suitably dangerous to the point of being over the top, but that added to the suspense of the movie. I didn't see the end twist coming and it was a pleasant surprise. The actors were great, no they didn't spend huge amounts of time on them, but as the star was the Alien lifeform I don't see so many negatives coming from people. Special effects were great, and the movie never lagged or got boring for me. I watched Star Trek Beyond for 30 minutes before switching off in disgust, yes I'll probably re-watch Alien and Aliens again because of this, classic movies. This wasn't a classic, but I still rate it as good and give it a seven out of ten.
