Alien Romulus
a year ago
IN NOMINE SALVATORIS DOMINI
Ever since Aliens 4 where the clone of Ripley, and that damn thing that followed her around like a lost puppy while murking everyone else, the Alien movie series has been going down the toilet. Same thing can be said for the modern games with great exception to Alien Isolation and Aliens Fireteam, which I really liked. F*** you, Colonial Marines.
It just seems like fictional evil corporations Weyland Yutani manage to get an IQ of every human alive in existence and sent the most incompetent the ones to colonize planets and explore space. If this was canon then yeah it make a ton of sense. "Clean the human gene pool! Send in the dumb ones to space to deal with the dangers first." Were it true that the Xenomorphs haven't out smarted their scientists and engineers that built failed contraptions to try and collect Xenomorphs. I am talking to you Aliens 4. The metal cage to hold creatures that have acid for blood!
I thought Alien Romulus would be different from the trailers. And the trailer did not fool me, it was 2/3rds of the movie that did. The beginning and middle of the movie was great superb.
*Spoilers*
The hallway full of face huggers and the characters that had to run through them, the Xenomorphs coming in waves as the character solo kills them in Zero G. And you feel for these Teenagers willing to risk it all to find a better world to live on and not die like their parents cause the mines are causing sicknesses and cancer to the inhabitants.
Then the last 1/3rd of the movie is like having slurry of sand and mud slung at my face. The combined the endings of a humanoid Xenomorph from Aliens 4 with the ending of covenant. This hybrid that came out of a pregnant teenager, the frontal upper side looked like the engineers while the back and lower side looked like a Xenomorph. It some reason had a mission to kill the final surviving character who is the protagonist. It looked LAME. https://www.scified.com/u/IMG_20240818_113346.jpg
It grins like a psycho, which no Xenomorph would. Canon: Xenomorphs don't have advance emotions, or gain satisfaction from hunting. They're biological weapons that are a mind hive and will do anything for the colony. They can only experience anger if their kind is threatened or killed, or fear if they know something is a threat to them and needs to be ether neutralized or it's too much to take on and flee. All the while they're smart and crafty, especially the ones that emerge out of human hosts.
*Spoilers end*
The ending left me extremely dissatisfied that I give this movie a 3 out of 5. It would get so much lower if the movie was mid, but again, the beginning and middle of the movie *Chef's kiss!* The ending though I thumbs down on it very hard.
