Not too bad but the science was lacking

Rating: 6/10 (9 June 2017)

Basically a remake of Alien except that the alien is more like the Blob. Absolutely no new thoughts went into the making of this movie. They did attempt to make it more scientific but they failed badly at that. The glaring problem is that you in reality, you would never try to resuscitate an alien life form even if its just a cell. The reasons are plain as day for anyone with an inkling of biology knowledge. Given it was biological in nature (dna based or similar), if you do revive said organism, it is highly likely that your microbes will destroy it or its microbes will destroy you. The odds of two organisms from two completely separate ecosystems to be compatible on a micro scale are practically zero which is the flaw of almost all alien based movies that have physical interaction. So anyway, the science was borked from the second they found the cell. No scientist over the age of 12 would have done what these morons did. But then you wouldn't have a movie right? Not an action movie at least. Which is where this one was not too bad in the same way that Alien is not bad. But the big difference is the age of each movie. Alien was great in its time, but today, such films are a dime a dozen and boring. Since there was no originality here and even less research, I cant see myself ever wanting to see it again.
Watch it once as an action film if you like semi-realistic action. Skip if you are expecting sci-fi. Its not science, just plain fiction.
