What a load of bullocks. A lobotomized cosmetic surgery to prevent a civilization extinction event...just let that sink in. The pacing is among the worst i have probably seen. Leaving zero room to connect to anything or anyone in this storyline.

I love this franchise, unfortunately this addition did not feel as organic. The acting felt slightly off, but after so many years since the last one, it's forgivable. The main thing that bothered me was the almost overwhelming, corny use of cgi and increased amount of unrealistic stunts and events. I look forward to a 6th film, but if I had to rank each movie I'd place "dead men tell no tales" last on the list.

I specifically waited a few days to see how this film was going to be received and it did not disappoint. This is a great new addition to the franchise, with a storyline that didnt feel too convoluted, but was also not necessarily groundbreaking. Visually it was stunning, and the sound production was FANTASTIC. The overall acting and cast however, felt a bit bland with the exception of Andy and Rain. There were a couple of scenes specifically in the second half of the film that also seemed a bit too convenient and didn't have me at the edge of my seat. Personally, I still want to see a continuation of the events after Covenant, but this film set between the first and second Alien movies was a nice welcoming nod to the originals. Worth a watch.
