Too many idiotic scenarios throughout the entire movie. Extremely predictable, even the plot twist at the end was. Mistake going to see this movie.

Cheesy

This furthered the narrative well from Prometheus in the ever elusive chase for the creators and the xenomorph origin.

Flips the Alien franchise on its head & gives us some answers we've been waiting decades for!! A must-see for the Alien fan

I fell asleep throughout the entire movie. Incredibly boring and they don't explain what is happening half the time. Wish I would have never seen this

It was nice seeing the "Alien" franchise but it didn't answer the questions of its previous film "Prometheus". This film could've been done better.

Not good at

Boring

Alien Covenant suffers from an unnecessary final act that puts a bad taste in your mouth after seeing a great rest of the movie.

👽

Toddler could've wrote a better plot..trash

I was expecting more.

I am a disappointment for Ridley Scott directing skills

It was good. predictable but still entertaining

Not a bad movie

horrible

Boring.

First half of the movie is almost identical to Prometheus. Horrible, lazy, CGI xenomorphs. This film was clearly heavily edited, throwing off the pacing and making character arcs short and confusing. James Franco is on screen for about 30 total seconds, even his scene from the trailer was cut. Hard to believe Ridley Scott is happy with the final product, i know I'm not.

WAAAAACCCCCCKKKKKK!!!!!!

Not as many jump scares as I would of liked

Opportunity lost....

really brings the Alien franchise storyline together.

I enjoyed it. It is a bit slow in some places but overall it was a good story.

AWESOME! ! Must see! Ties all of the Alien series and Promethius together

Expected a bit more, but it was an acceptable movie. Hope the next sequel is fleshed out. Rate the movie a B.

awesome job Mr. Scott! this is a must see for alien fans!

much better than the bad reviews say, genuine horror. improves on prometheus

Very good addition to the Alien series.

A nice homage to the original film. Must see

Da aliens were cool n all but like when we gonna bring back Mall Cop, I want a Mall Cop 3

It was terrible at points and i loved it for that

Everything that was interesting and frustrating about Prometheus is present in spades in Alien: Covenant. I really wanted to like this movie, but there is too much religious nonsense and too many blatantly stupid things being done by characters who should know better.

amazing movie would 100% recommend it to anybody that loves the alien franchise

It was decent.

4DX is a bust...

Had it's TENSE moments , but , way too many cliche'2

I felt empty at the end of the movie

bad

Felt like a retelling of Prometheus.

don't get me wrong I liked it, but it was missing something and I hope there's a 3rd one that's ALL action

If you like a good "bad" ending this is for you !!

Cliche space horror but the "real" story I found intriguing. Species, Giants, tries to create superior species, humans, fails so attempts to destroy humans. Humans fight back and win. Cycle starts over with humans creating David. Humans tries to create better David with Walter. Fails and David destroys humans. Cycle begins over with David attempting to create a superior species. The old paradox of trying to create perfection when the creator is not perfect told in a space horror plot.

stupidly written, entirely predictable, waste of money, what shame this will kill the franchise

I love this universe and now I want to know more!

pretty predictable but very satisfying. You are watching an Alien movie if you want an Alien movie that is what you get and it was a great time

meh, Prometheus was better...

Takes you back to literally where everybody has to be stupid to make the movie work

It's a good movie to enjoy but it leaves us wondering what the purpose David had to play God.

had no story line to why there is a need to vacate earth to colonize a new plant

im usually not into any kind of Sci-fi movies...i get bored and fall asleep, but this movie was excellent! I watched the entire thing.

This film is at once sumptuous with thrills and surplus to requirements. Let sleeping aliens lie.

This new “Alien” prequel is mostly a gore fest, which may be great news for gluttons of the genre.
