Vixo S @vixo_six 1d Alien: Covenant disappointed me because its best ideas are surrounded by a story that constantly tests my patience. The contrast between David and Walter is fascinating, especially through questions about creation, free will, love and whether something needs a soul to experience any of them. Michael Fassbender easily carries that side of the movie. Unfortunately, supposedly experienced characters make baffling decisions, while David’s experiments and the biology surrounding them operate with rules that are never clear enough to feel convincing. Prometheus left me wanting answers, but Covenant somehow gave me even more questions. There is plenty of ambition here, but the ideas could not save a story whose internal logic kept pulling me out of it.

The film also goes into high stakes action thriller and horror in the first like 40 minutes of te film rather than playing it slow for most of the film.

Then leaving out the stupidity of being on another planet without helmet the film is good. It's a real shame Scott didn't go through his original plan from Prometheus and we didn't get a trilogy.

It was not good or interesting at all. And they basically wasted a good opportunity to do an amazing sequel to Prometheus...it wasn't it. Very busybody film, no direction, no explanation, no really depth either. It was just about David being jealous of humans, mad he was created to serve humans so he used the aliens so he could be creator and play God. Not worth watching and money wasted making. Definitely don't recommend unless you just like gore and aliens you will like it but if you need things to make sense and good acting don't bother. Also horrible casting, there weren't any good actors nor actresses in this film that should have been the first red flag it was gonna be trash! See more Beingalive I @Rarwww Jul 18 Can't recommend at all, all the characters that are smart seem to make the most foolish decisions,what David's intentions are could've just been explained in 30 min. (As someone having only watched this movie and prometheus since im watching in order)Atp I find myself more interested in a revenge of the civilization killed by him rather than the humans...every other action can be predicted. Good movie for a drinking game to drink whenever one predicts the action but not to discover plots . Very little of aliens and too many relationships with too little backstory too be interested in and not really even one character that is bearable at all times. Really wanted too like this movie, was sadly even more disappointed than when watching prometheus. See more Read all reviews
