When the title Alien: Covenant appears on the screen in Ridley Scott’s third entry into the six-film Fox franchise, it slowly emerges in deep space scored by Jerry Goldsmith’s beautiful haunting theme. After the different, divisive Prometheus, it seems like a reaffirmation of core values: this time, in space, no-one will hear you scream. If that is the intention, then Scott succeeds in fits and starts: it feels like a companion-piece with Prometheus, still talky and heavy-handed, but edges closer to the original in terms of gore, imagery and excitement.
"If you are already a fan of this franchise, this is a very good option this weekend at the cinema. It's well made, the actors are great and the story/world setting is very interesting." - Bryan (Resident Entertainment)
Ashley Madison-Sex Lies and Scandal Review: The documentary refuses to take a stand on whether or not it wants us to feel bad for cheaters, infuriating viewers with its wishy washy attitude.
Monster Review: While this film delivers elements of horror and thriller, they're only sporadically effective, leaving the overall experience falling short of expectations.
