Alien: Covenant 2017

Covenant tries to mix between Prometheus philosophically inclined on the allegory of human creation with its trademark Alien series that is body horror and thriller, but the presentation ends up a bit dodgy.

Iconic scenes such as the almost homoerotic relationship between Walter and David and David's monologue on his twisted notion of creation are slipped among the xenomorph hunt for humans. Neither develop to its most potential - few rooms for pondering, and action scenes that left us wanting for more. The ending is a bit surprising, yet at the same time it is almost to be expected. What is remarkable from this film is Fassbender's performance on acting as the androids, so hats off for that.
