Alien: Romulus

Awesome return to form! Best alien movie in literal decades

so an alien is chasing people around a dark dingy space station. which alien am I talking about 1 2 3 4 5 6? why do they have to make it another movie about the same old premise over and over again. stupid people going on abandoned spaceships to find why it's abandoned? yeah because there's dumb aliens there ready to kill you. be a little bit more creative next time

Panalo. Basta Fede Alvarez talaga e expect mo na maganda. Ang ok din sa direktor na to e nag stick sya sa original na material nya pero medyo predictable na sa akin un pagkakaroon ng human hybrid sa huli

Watched only 15 minutes. Started off well and then the channel flipped. I felt like i was watching a tv production with my nephews on kids tv. Slightly older kids than them doing unrealistic goofy things.

loved the movie. had some nostalgia, great new things too.

One of the best Alien films since Alien 3 the Assembly Cut. it captures the suspense, pacing, and atmosphere of the original films while introducing something new to the alien universe even without changing what we know so far. the only real negative is some questionable digital compositing that really was not needed and could have just been done on screen, or with another character.

A much more in your face take on the film than the original. As opposed to the slower, tension building atmosphere of the first film we have a much more action packed and gory version here.

Guys, Alien Romulus was awesome. This was the first genuinely suspenseful movie I’ve seen in a very long while. The premise is super simple, and there’s only six main cast members, yet the stakes in this movie feel so heavy! This film IS scary. But like so many before it, it’s scary because of the atmosphere. The sense of dread builds from one scene to the next constantly. Once one obstacle is cleared, a more danger one presents itself. I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a movie in which a situation escalates as consistently as it does in this one. The cast does a fantastic job. Cailee Spaeny and David Jonsson are the two standouts as the main characters. They carry this movie on their shoulders and do a phenomenal job. The other four characters are fleshed out well enough that they feel like real people more so than cannon fodder. You really can’t tell who will survive and who won’t until the end credits roll. The visual effects in this movie are great. There are some truly beautiful shots of outer space, and some very convincing set pieces. I’ve seen online that almost 100% of the face-huggers are practical, and around half of the Xenomorphs are. It is impressive how tangible these aliens feel compared to other sci-fi films. They do some very creative things with the setting in this movie as well, especially with artificial gravity. Gravity plays a huge role in some of the action, and it makes for some very creative sequences. Nonetheless, this movie’s third act! Hohoho… You think it’s over, but again, the tension never stops building, and I’ve never had a visceral reaction in my seat like this film’s final reveal gave me. You just wait for the nightmares that you’ll get that night! 4 out of 5. Very happy to see such an iconic franchise get the TLC it deserves!

Amazing Alien sequel. From the great characters to the amazing digital effects this movie has a lot of things. Andy is an amazing character and I love how in the beginning he is depicted slightly like he has autism which I found a very sad thing as he slowly went into the path of evil like Ash. I know it is very controversial but I loved seeing Ia. holm again and I fully supported seeing him. The climax was great as well as seeing the giant hybrid was disturbing and terrifying and I loved it. Wonderful movie in general.

Excellent story and action. Great creativity and storytelling.
