THIS MOVIE THRILLS and Then KILLS!
After being totally disappointed by 2012’s Prometheus I wasn’t too eager for alien Covenant. It seemed to be the same old Alien formula and the trailers did nothing to provide any sort of excitement.
So I went in with no expectations and while I wasn’t blown away by the film, I was not disappointed at all. It’s a rather well made horror thriller and does the name 'alien' TOTAL justice.
Let’s start with the positives.
Though the film has a lot of bland characters they somehow DON’T bog down the story as it moves along in a relatively smooth pace and the ominous feeling of dread slowly increases as the plot moves forward.
Ridley Scott is having a bit of a renaissance... |
