Great cinematography.
The actors do a good job with what they have. No Oscar worthy performances but they do fine. We just don't really get to know any of them at all.
The effects for this budget are fantastic and the money is clearly spent well. Proving big budgets aren't necessary.
Good sound and overall production value
The thing that lets this movie down is the script. It starts off well, has a bit of a wobble in the middle, and goes kinda off the rails at the end. There's too many unnecessary throwbacks to other alien movies that just weren't necessary or were even kinda cringe and forced.
It does have some good action sequences and cool ideas.
I heard that the third act would split fans and I'm on the side of the people who it didn't work for. If you didn't like alien resurrection, chances are you won't like this.
Overall it's far from the worst alien movie and it's worth streaming but it's not the banger that people are saying it is. 6/10.

This movie has a crazy amount of fan service. It's everything a comic book movie fan could ask for from an R rated Deadpool & Wolverine movie.
Great acting from Hugh and Ryan, they were born to play these roles.
Great soundtrack. Not the songs I would have chosen personally but they make them work.
Literally hilarious from the first moment to the end. Opening credits are the best opening credits i've ever seen. The movie is very self contained so it doesn't really set up a future movie and doesn't really 'save the mcu' but its definitely a return to form.
Some amazing action and fight scenes.
Some great expected and unexpected cameos. Plenty of Deadpool variants and Wolverine variants.
Excellent closure for some old Fox Marvel characters who maybe didn't get a great showing until now (or at all).
Great nods to current state of Marvel.
On the negative side, it was a little too goofy at times and I had a few nitpicks with a couple of the costumes.
9/10 go see it and maybe see it twice.
