I honestly don't understand the naysayers. Alien: Earth (Neverland) feels like a return to what made the first two movies so great. Noah Hawley has clearly done his homework; all the little details are there, down to the same computer sounds and retro-futuristic items we remember from Alien and Aliens. The atmosphere has that same old school awesomeness while also carrying Hawley's high artistic ambitions in editing, cinematography, and pacing.
No distracting or heavy-handed messaging, just a gripping and intriguing story so far. It's both respectful to the legacy of the franchise and fresh in its execution. Suspenseful, visually stunning, and exciting; exactly what I was hoping for.
If the rest of the season keeps this up, we're in for something special.

A ship can just crash on a city with no attempt to prevent or even prepare? We have space object tracking in real life right now. I know it's not a documentary, but it's hard to suspend disbelief for that.
Horror and retro aesthetic are really good though. And all the nods to the earlier films are nicely done.

There's a lot to like-and some things to dislike-about this opening chapter of Alien: Earth. On the positive side, the characters and their backgrounds, as relevant to this story, are explained quite well. Along the way, the episode makes numerous nods to the iconic Alien films, even reusing entire lines of dialogue and recreating memorable scenes.
That said, there's an awful lot going on here: synths, other space creatures, a war between the big three corporations, the synths' own conflicts, and more. I've always enjoyed how simple and straightforward Alien stories tend to be, but this time that's not the case-probably too much is happening in this series. I hope the coming episodes will be more focused.
Overall, the acting is good, and the special effects are solid.

The overall premise was sound enough... A research vessel crashes to Earth after some of its specimen got loose (by the way.. how did they got loose? They were confined during most of the trip back and they got loose close to Jupiter's orbit?).
Then, things start to get weird. The doctor of an emergency response team wasn't actually a doctor? One of the big corporations who runs the world sends a bunch of kids (albeit, in enhanced bodies) to a disaster area with an unknown spacecraft? Really? Nobody had any hint of an idea how to do anything in such an environment, yet they went anyway?... Besides, the director's job looks terrible. I am no formal expert on cinematography, but I have seen many, many movies and series and this one looks wrong. The spotty takes of the disaster aboard the ship when some aliens get loose are terrible. The whole chapter is terribly boring.
I hope future episodes will improve. Episode 2 isn't better than episode 1...

Neverland is a strong start to an interesting premise.
A sensible amount of time is dedicated to introducing the great sci-fi concept of the hybrid characters. The exposition is fairly simplistic, but still conveyed strongly with good visual storytelling. I particularly like the well-filmed and edited transition sequence involving the group. Sydney Chandler looks and acts perfectly in the part.
As a setting, the corporate, A. I. dominated future could not be more relevant in 2025. It was a mere prediction during Ridley Scott's Alien and Bladerunner, but we arguably are now in the transition period.
The Maginot scenes are heavily reminiscent of the 1979 classic in style and tone. I like that it does not unnecessarily spend time building up to the creature we already know, but does, however, drip-feed the introduction of new species.
As the two main plot threads come together, the plot becomes more intriguing and makes me want to know what happens next.
Visually, it looks very promising. The retro designs mix well with the earth settings. I love the look and feel of the Neverland location. Certain aspects you feel are there for stylistic reasons, such as various characters taking weapons into certain situations, but I can suspend my disbelief for the sake of cinematic imagery.
All actors are solid so far, with the standouts for me being Chandler and Timothy Olyphant.

- TriviaThe Weyland-Yutani science vessel is named USCSS Maginot. Likely named after the Maginot Line, a defense system consisting of concrete fortifications, obstacles like moats & tank traps, and weapon emplacements like retractable machine gun turrets, anti-tank guns, and long range artillery. It was built in northeast France between 1929-1938 and named after its principal creator, André Maginot, who was France's minister of war from 1922-1924 & 1929-1932. Its main purpose was to stop another German attack, like the one that devastated the country in World War I. However, it was a failure for various reasons, including poor planning that caused gaps in the fortifications along the nation's borders (especially with Belgium), allowing the German army to bypass the western line by violating Belgium's borders to go around it at the start of World War II. Thus, "Maginot Line" has since become a metaphor for expensive and/or elaborate defenses that are inherently flawed, and offer a false sense of security.
- ErroresWhen Morrow is in the control room accessing Mother, the green lettering on the computer screen where he has just typed "Crew: Dead" is reflected perfectly on his face, where it should have reflected backwards as a mirror image.

Kirsh: You used to be food, you know.
Wendy: Me?
Kirsh: Humanity. Your lives were short and filled with fear.Then your brains grew. You built tools and used them to conquer nature. You built impossible machines and went to space. You stopped being food. Or, I should say, you told yourself, you weren't food anymore. But in the animal kingdom, there is always someone bigger, or smaller, who would eat you alive if they had the chance. That's what it is to be an animal. You're born, you live, you die.
