An enjoyable but flawed entry in the alien franchise taking place ten years after the events of Prometheus, colony ship Covenant takes damage and the crew awakens to fix the ship and detect a signal coming from what appears to be a human being where there should be none, they decided to investigate, but this is the beginning of their problem's. For me this feels like an alien movie, unlike Prometheus. I can see how and why people didn't like how Scott handles the "birth" of the xenomorph we know and love, but I did find the character of David to be fascinating and chilling and credit must go to Fassbender in his duel roles as the caring Walter and unhinged David, while not as good as the first two films I rank it up there with alien 3 , which also wasn't well received. 7.5/10
