Alien is obviously much slower paced and less action, but that is what makes it special. I love how paced it is, its more tense and more thriller horror style rather than action. Much better scripted and the whole set is amazing. I'm an Alien and Terminator man more than Aliens and Terminator 2 sorry James Cameron of course his movies are amazing but they don't trump the originals!
@@Franksmediaandreviews He liked it! He’s 13 and loves movies. We have been hitting all the summer releases and I love taking with him about his opinion. He has seen Fury Road and even though he enjoyed this film he liked Fury Road better. That’s fair. I personally think it’s a great movie for the saga and both are great. Tomorrow we will finally watch the 4k Blu-ray! I will let you know our take on it. I think it’s going to be amazing.
@@Franksmediaandreviews I’m a big Alien fan. The whole idea of the franchise fascinates me. I didn’t know Fede Álvarez was the director until I saw your video.
Great review buddy! I really enjoyed it too. I had some problems with it but overall this was a really good movie. The cinematography and score were both phenonminal .
I really enjoyed the film with its subtle references to other films. However, the ending was too much. The sound was incredible, surely an Oscar contender in this category.
Wow, putting Alien Covenant before AvP is a crime. I know AVP had its flaws, but Alien Covenant took the characterization to another (hyper)low, with literally everyone but David Fassbender making insufferable bad decisions. It looks absolutely gorgeous, and i also agree on the fact that it's a mix between Alien and Prometheus. The movie had a good idea behind it. But the decision making of the characters absolutely ruined the movie for me.
I may go and see this. I love alien and aliens. I think im in the minority but I prefer the original over aliens.
The original is way better better it's a masterpiece
@@021om6 I agree. I see tons of people putting aliens over alien. Both great films but the original is amazing

@@021om6 I do prefer t2 over terminator. Either way he made both so it’s a win for him regardless.
Hell yeah! Alien is a masterpiece. I love how it's just a horror film, while Aliens is a blend of action and horror elements.
I'll watch tonight when I come back from the theatre 🤟
Can't wait to hear your thoughts of the film!
I have to rewatch them all but I remember kinda liking requiem.
There's some pretty good kills in Requiem!
Saw it with my son on Thursday night. It was really good! I would love to see it again.
Love it! How did your son like it? Has he seen the previous films?

@@Franksmediaandreviews I'm scared I won't like it but we will see! haha

I wanna say it's a hybrid of Alien 1&2 , but Fede spun a new story and stayed faithful to the OGs
Yup, pretty much! How did you like it?
Great review buddy! I really enjoyed it too. I had some problems with it but overall this was a really good movie. The cinematography and score were both phenonminal .

That would be awesome if it was nominated for an Oscar!

Then lock me up 🤣. I really enjoy all the Alien films, except for Requiem.
