Alien: Covenant

The title is an exercise in false advertisement.  This isn't an Alien film , but rather the story of a group of idiot scientists who get caught up in a fight between two dull androids, one of which has an affinity for small extra-terrestrials that will eventually grow into creatures similar to the title creature from the first film.  This film is simply given the Alien title so that they didn't have to call it Prometheus II, instead opting to officially attach it to a more successful franchise rather than continue trying to continue on from the lambasted Prometheus.  The problem is that its predecessor was a far superior film, even with all of its flaws.

 

If there is to be more films in the Alien franchise, then they need to move back into the already established timeline of the franchise and do something set after Alien Resurrection.  This prequel nonsense, which focuses so little on the title character(s) that one has to wonder what the point of it all is, needs to go away.

Mother!

 

If you watch this movie prepare yourself to be like wtf?!? by the end of it and leaving the theatre hating what you just watched but upon deeper understanding of the movie and the symbolism behind it it turns out to be an amazing movie. Jennifer was so good in it too. But it's a slow build and then there's just this crazy intense sequence that feels like it never ends.
