Life is the newest horror sci-fi inspired by Alien (1979), it is pretty fun, has a great cast, some action scenes are very well directed, but the problem is: Life has absolutely no reason to exist.

It doesn't show us anything we haven't seen before in Alien, Gravity, or any other great science-fiction. It's predictable, uninspired and completely devoid of compelling characters.

I mean, it's not a bad movie. You'll probably gonna have plenty of fun watching it, but it could be so much better, and there are so many better movies of the same genre out there, that you have almost no reason to watch it.

But if you're still interested and just want some scares and exciting scenes, go for it. Although Life is not a memorable movie, its fast pace and terrifying villain will keep you entertained until the very end (which, believe me, you'll never see coming).
