one of the best in the series
I thought a YT variation was going to not be the best choice, then the instant I was put on a mining colony in space and our heroine was protecting her android 'brother' I knew it was going to be fun. The special effects, sounds, environment were almost exactly what was in the video game Alien Isolation which is a great thing.
It really felt like there might be hope, and you maybe could get away each and every time, but how to lead us there is what makes the tempo of this film work well. It really won't be one of those moments where you will think "wow, it's so new" but it is so good at what it is.
A horror film in space. A fear factor film about AI. The little guy (gal) against the corporate machine. Check marks galore and wow what a fun ride this one was. If you're new to the Alien franchise, you can go back and watch the original Alien and then Aliens to really get a feel of this one. I would love to see a really good PCVR ray traced version of this as a game with some variations on a theme (DLC etc) like Alien Isolation. The film uses a feeling of real time narrative in the second half which would really lend itself to a VR gaming treatment.
This is without a doubt a great addition to a sci fi series that keeps me coming back for more.
