Review of Alien: Covenant (2017) by Angryfunnydog — 19 May 2017

The worst movie of Ridley Scott, that even makes Prometheus much better, in comparison. Stupid characters, who created just for duying, broken storyline from prometheus, that made the character of Dr Shaw look really dumb, Michael Fassbender is really good here, but the whole movie concentrates about him. Stupid storyline, where, again, stupid colinists go th an unexplored planet without any precautios, like space suits? Hazmat suits? Or maybe a breathe mask? You know, in case of some infections (spoiler - there are some very nasty infections). No? Ok, good for you, you did the right thing to die in this movie, dear colonists. All the deaths are made dramatically, like we must feel something about it, but we don't as there is absolutely no character disposition. To understand who is husband or wife of whom, you need to watch youtube videos about it, some "extra" features, but I want to see this in the movie, because movies are to tell stories, correct? Without any wheelchairs, like such videos.

And the most dissapointing is actually alien, who is not "perfect organism" anymore, because it sucks, for the whole movie it killed only guys who were laying on the ground, and the ones who were naked in the shower. In any other situations alien get his ass kicked by everybody. The lore is broken, as there is no more mystery around the alien, the scene of the birth of the alien is stupid, alien here looks as not something scary, but as something wrong and idiotic.

Guys, really, I can't believe that anyone give it 10 out of 10. I understand that there are different opinions, but obvious stupidity and the plot wholes must be obvious to everyone. The filming itself is nice, really, beutiful and nice. I give 1 point for this.

P.S.
