Watched Alien Covenant last night. I enjoyed watching it but did feel quite underwhelmed by the film. I would need a second viewing to judge it properly.
Trouble is, my expectations are always so high whenever I see a new Alien franchise movie. Especially if it's directed by Ridley Scott. I think that I actually currently prefer Prometheus. Even though this film had the advantage of featuring a genuine xenomorph.
btw Bothered me that we didn't see a chestburster and that it was a mini-alien instead. Perhaps Scott explains the reason for that in his commentary track. Current film score - a grudging 7/10.
(Also I would have liked to have seen the Noomi Rapice footage in the actual film rather than being presented on the bd as a separate web-isode thing).
