Huge improvements compared to the prequels. Loved the sets, retro Sci fi feel, alien, facehuggers, tension and the actual story was nice. The cast and characters were also the best since alien 3. Believable and you actually cared for them. What let it down was the continued easter eggs (1 or 2 is fine but it was literally every scene), lines used from previous films, scenes (pulse rifle training) and cgi synthetic face. I was also hoping for much more gore. Take those things away and it would've been a nice original story but for some reason we got another jumbled film that had things that let it down
