jrd30121994 Posted August 14 Posted August 14 Just got out of this. LOVED IT. Personally my fav Alien film. Once the action starts it genuinely doesn't let up until the credits. 3
Shelter Posted August 15 Posted August 15 83% on RT after 127 reviews. Highest RT score for the franchise since Aliens. 1
toast Posted August 16 Posted August 16 I knew it would be good, but I didn't know it'd be THAT good 2
enchanted0 Posted August 16 Posted August 16 Watched it on IMAX and wow it was soooo fantastic i need 10 more of it movie of the year 1
Kevin2803 Posted August 16 Posted August 16 The insane thing about this movie is (and only read if you already watched it) Spoiler that i, only hours before watching the movie, was thinking about how cool it would be if there would be like a Xenomorph/Human hybrid and THEN THEY ACTUALLY DID IT. I was so shook. 1
Shelter Posted August 16 Posted August 16 It was good. I'm so happy they did practical effects and less cgi. Looks so much better. Sound was insane. Quote 'Alien: Romulus' Devours $6.5M In Thursday Previews – Box Office It's heading for a 45 - 50 million weekend. 1
mitochondria23 Posted August 16 Posted August 16 (edited) The Xenomorph is such an iconic creature design. I love that Spoiler They introduced this new v@gina cocoon thing as part of life cycle of the creature. Which highlights the sexual motifs of the design Edited August 16 by mitochondria23 1
suneclipse121 Posted August 16 Posted August 16 (edited) This was excellent. A return to form for the Alien franchise and easily sits with the first two films. Fede Alvarez is a great horror director and a great director in general. Edited August 16 by suneclipse121 2
halcyonday Posted August 16 Posted August 16 Just watched it and LOVED IT. Easily the best modern Alien movie. The last 20 minutes had me gagged. I was in a chokehold. 2
Lawssance Posted August 16 Posted August 16 (edited) This was so ******* good. Best film in the franchise since Aliens. I loved that they brought back a stalking xeno from the first film but also still kept the action from the second. I also loved the throwbacks and references to the films like Spoiler a birthed alien. Although I prefer the Resurrection design solely because I thought it was cute in a tragic way and it was very heartbreaking, this was very creepy and terrifying. Sad to have seen Isabela die too, I was rooting for her. I also appreciated us getting a redeemable synthetic given that we'll never see Walter again most likely. The acidic blood scene was phenomenal. Cailee is such a star in this too, her and Jonsson gave the best performances in the franchise since Sigourney in the first two films. Isabela was great too. Final ranking of the films: Alien > Aliens > Romulus > Promtheus > Covenant > AVP > Alien 3 > Resurrection > Requiem The director said he'd be down for another AVP movie with the Prey director but I think that plot should stay in the 2000s Edited August 16 by Lawssance
Kings. Posted August 17 Posted August 17 If anyone is planning on seeing this soon please respond to this post ASAP. I have a $5 code from Fandango (that expires in less than one hour, but it's good for any future showtime) I would like to give to the first person to quote this since I won't be able to see this as soon as I thought
