Alien: Covenant - Prologue: Last Supper

Okay, these prologues are kind of annoying. Especially when you have to hunt them down. Just put all of them into the movie or edit it down. Will make the overall experience much more enjoyable.

Instead, just leaves a bad taste in the mouth . . .

An obvious nod to the biblical Last Supper-and a fitting addition to a film that portrays an alien race as "gods" who created humans, with a human-made android now playing god-this clip has several highlights. First, it introduces the crew of the Covenant, gathered together in one room, partying and bonding like a family. James Franco appears only briefly, while the focus rests mainly on the lead actress, Daniels. Second, the clip cleverly echoes the original Alien film, serving both as a distraction and as a heartfelt tribute to the classic that started it all.

Ridley never smiles. The movie shows why, but I won't give away anything. Visually amazing, this is now the standard for Riddy now. Storyline did have a lot of twists that some were and others not so good. All in all a good story and visuals. Could've had a better ending, without giving anything away. It certainly is a niche market audience for these types of movies...don't watch while eating....but still decent.

It's just an introductory short film. Kudos to LGBTQIA+ visibility and that's all.
