Customer Ratings & Reviews

The critics are wrong, I like this movie. You can't have the whole Alien collection without this movie.

I have all the other Alien movies on Blu Ray. Couldn't resist buying this one since it was on sale

My review is based on the dvd, since my blu-ray player has no remote. The movie itself is fun though predictable, since we all know how it eventually ends: Alien. This movie plays with the mythos created by Dan O'Bannon's hardcore sequel to his and John Carpenter's Dark Star. The result, originally titled Star Beast, eventually was re-titled Alien after extensive re-writes by (David) Giler, with input by (Walter) Hill and Gordon (no android avatar...yet) Carroll. This is a deeper exploration into the alien lifestyle, with some devastating death sequences, much better in the end than the much-maligned Prometheus. I prefer this over the prequel, though some of the alien infants look too thin and fragile. That don't last long, though. The characters are well drawn and don't do as many stupid things as their Prometheus predecessors. For that, and for creating more Gigeresque aliens, I give it 5 stars, but subtract 1 for making David the unholy annihilator of an entire species of humanoid, and creator of the xebomorphs. And that terrible bowl cut for the current 'Ripley'. Quite a fascinating, refreshing and downright terrifying film.

Alien series Always been one to keep me on edge. Love it. Hope they continue on with this series. A big fan!

This is a good sequel to the not very good but quite hyped up movie Prometheus & I enjoyed it a lot more.

I enjoyed this sequel to The Alien movie legacies. The special effects were up to par and the story was good.

Only alien I liked more was “Aliens” one of the first movies I watched in 4K. Only way to watch this movie with all the dark scenes. Detail is awesome

This film would make a great addition to any fan's collection. Even if you're new to the series there's just enough catch up to make you interested in the prequels.

I liked parts of this film (Ridley Scott movies always look great), but the film-makers seemed more interested in producing a horror-film product, than a tense alien sci-fi film. Also, this was the first Alien film where i did not find a majority of the cast members particularly likable. It's harder to care what happens without those feelings.

I liked the movie but I was expecting a little more knowing it’s a Alien movie but it’s worth a buy.

I know I’m in the minority but I really liked this movie. I thought it was better than most Alien movies.

I didn't really like Prometheus but this one was better excited to see if they can keep going from here!

I’ve been watching the Aliens series since I was a little kid. They did a great job of continuing that in this new sequel. Found on 4K is awesome

The visual effects, when watching in the theater, didn’t look all that great. However, once I saw the film on 4K, certain aspects definitely imporved.

This movie is awesome, especially in 4K! The steel-book case is also an awesome display piece. A must for anyone who loves the alien franchise.

I like this movie better than the last movie. This movie told more of the Alien story. Worth watching.

It really baffles me how much negativity some Alien fans express towards this film. To me, Alien: Covenant is one of my favorite films of the year and ranks in my top 3 Alien films of all time. It's the best film in the franchise since James Cameron's Aliens in 1986. I really enjoyed Prometheus and the more philosophical themes it explored along with the Engineers so I was really happy to see director Ridley Scott return to the Alien franchise again with Covenant. To me, Covenant is the perfect blend between, Prometheus, the original Alien, and Aliens while also feeling like a modern film and giving us the best-looking alien creature designs and scenes yet. I feel that those who disliked it just wanted a straight-up rehash of Aliens and never even gave this movie a chance based on its own merits. If you look back at the originals, they were much more straight-forward survival stories. Covenant, on the other hand, is much more ambitious in the story it is trying to tell with its themes of creations and creators. The story is nostalgic yet fresh, the cinematography and directing by Ridley Scott is stunning, the soundtrack by Jed Kurzel is eerie and atmospheric, and the movie is a dark and entertaining sci-fi horror film worthy of the Alien franchise. What I love about Covenant is all the risks this film takes and where it may go next. I really hope this film gets a sequel so I would recommend all fans of this movie to pick it up on blu ray and show Fox that we want to see this story continued. This 4K set gets my highest recommendation!

It's an Alien film...people have bad stuff happen, but it does help to explain the overall storyline.

Great design and feel with the matte finish. The digital code provided however wasn't 4k

Very good addition to the Alien universe. Advances the story line well. On par with Prometheus.
