Why You Should Avoid Watching Alien: Covenant - A Major Letdown
Are you eagerly looking forward to seeing Alien: Covenant? While it may excite some fans of the franchise, this movie is a stark reminder of how dire sequels can be. This review aims to provide a candid and detailed breakdown of why it would be wise to avoid this particular film.
The Underwhelming Experience
Strap yourself in for a ride on a roller coaster of emotions, because this is one of the most horrible movies I have seen in recent years. For those planning to watch Alien: Covenant, a profound disclaimer: you need to leave your brain and wisdom at home before immersing yourself in this cinematic disaster. The director has shamelessly replicated the same alien models from a plethora of past movies, making for a predictably uninspired experience.
The Ludicrous Setting and Plot Predictability
What adds insult to injury is the absurdity of the storyline and the setting. The movie imagines a planet with green mountains, water, and even wheat crops. It’s as if the film’s creators wanted us to believe in a highly credible depiction of alien cultivation. However, such overt attempts at world-building only serve to highlight the lack of originality and substance in the plot. This incredulousness might have led some viewers to chuckle, but it’s more indicative of the film's inability to enthrall and captivate its audience on a deeper level.
A Euphonious Take on Movie Parasites
The movie's failings are so profound that one can’t help but draw parallels to the infamous Indian film production company, the Ramsay Brothers. If you have a mixed feeling while watching, it’s because Ramsay Brothers also produced One of the Many Movies and Jurassic Park. The director seems to draw inspiration from the same source, resulting in a blend of disjointed scenes and tepid storytelling. The aforementioned parallels suggest that just like Jurassic Park, Alien: Covenant is a disappointing foray into franchise territory that fails to deliver on its promises.
Misplaced Hope and Financial Waste
The horror that is Alien: Covenant extends beyond its unbearable predictability and ludicrous world-building. If you have nothing to do on a Friday evening or are willing to squander your hard-earned money on something that won’t provide lasting entertainment, please do yourself a favor and refrain from watching this movie. Your brain and your wallet will thank you for it.
Conclusion
For fans of the Alien series who were presumptuously hopeful about the next installment, they may find themselves grappling with a sense of disappointment. The Alien: Covenant serves more as a cautionary tale about the pitfalls of attempting to recreate the magic of a beloved franchise without adding any significant value or innovation. Perhaps viewers will have more success finding joy in other sci-fi classics that don't fall prey to such egregious shortcomings.
