I enjoyed the movie and didn't find it confusing like other reviewers did. But I've watched the other Alien movies, so maybe that's why. Otherwise I don't understand their confusion.

A nice sci-fi adventure entertaining piece with superb visual effects.
However, you definitely need a willing suspension of disbelief.
For example, Dr. Shaw stands up right after a self-induced cesarean operation to get the octopus-like…
A great movie. I don't understand all the "confusing" comments, but I do tend to pay attention, so... Anyway, it's a worthy entry in the Aliens mythos that Scott has created.

A Ridley Scott sci-fi adventure that touches on subjects like ancient civilizations and questions about the origin of man. The story follows an exploratory team to another planet to find answers.

I thought it might be good, there is a pool table. Then they put a tree 🎄 on the table. Worse, later they put a bottle with liquid on the table.
Throughout, I could only feel like another Alien movie. Turns out there is good reason…

As a stand-alone scifi movie, it's pretty good. As a prequel to Alien, it's mostly good. For the life of me, I can't figure out why the movie ends as it does, and why a certain thing is not a little more clear. It is as if the special…

I recently watched this for the third time, and appreciate more every time. An interesting story, giving the answer to where Earthlings came from, and leaving the proposed Alien prequels, the possible answers to why?
Nice film on it's…

Visually stunning and thematically ambitious but otherwise weak and disappointing. An overly complicated plot seems intended to distract the audience from the forgettable characters and the filmmakers' unwillingness - or inability - to…

Bunk. Hi tech 'Alien' franchise wannabe. Do crew members ever read a science fiction novel? You don't put your hand out to a slimy tentacle emerging from gooey black liquid mysteriously filling the chamber you just entered. And what's with…
A film that needs to be seen on a large screen to appreciate scale of aliens, alien ship and planet. A little hokey, violent, intense, and great sound make it a good movie to see.

Pretty much this movie gets you thinking and you will search the Internet for answers.
1 The first scene is showing that the engineers will sacrifice them selves to create life on other planets.
2 The movie takes place on planet…
=SPOILERS= What I don't get is: 1- If the Engineer that tried to fly away to Earth to kill us humans exit the ship and get killed, what did we see fossilized on the chair in Alien? 2- If the Engineers created us, then, what created all the…
