Reviews
r96sk: <em>'Alien: Romulus'</em> is actually very good.
Of the more modern day releases from this franchise, this is the one I've enjoyed the most. When I was immediately coming out of the cinema I was just plainly thinking of it as being solidly good, however the more I think about it the more I had fu…
CinemaSerf: I gather director Fede Alvarez made a conscious – and probably expensive – decision to keep the use of CGI to a minimum here and it really does work. "Rain" (Cailee Spaeny) and her "brother" are looking to get off-planet but she can't get travel papers from the all-powerful mining company. Desperate…
MovieGuys: Whilst not as awful as the Aliens franchise films that came after the excellent first and second films, starring Sigourney Weaver, Alien Romulus is not without its shortcomings.
Whats immediately noticeable, in spite of the rugged, industrial setting, is a cast that look like they just escaped f…
Louisa Moore – Screen Zealots: Color me thoroughly surprised at how much I was delighted by “Alien: Romulus,” a highly creative, beautifully executed, pulse-pounding science fiction film from director Fede Alvarez. This sequel is a rare gem in the world of big budget franchise flicks because it not only respects its predecessors …
Manuel São Bento: FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/alien-romulus-review-an-audiovisual-triumph-held-back-by-reverence-to-the-past/
"Alien: Romulus is an impressive technical spectacle that highlights Fede Álvarez's talent in creating an atmosphere of tension and horror, raising the audiov…
Mister BLAQK: Alien: Romulus is a love letter to the 1979 classic, and while I dug the whole philosophical space-god thing in Prometheus, this stripped-down, back-to-basics approach had me hooked from the first frame. It's been a while since an Alien film truly captured that sense of claustrophobic dread, and Ro…
Dean: This was a great movie and a great continuation of Alien series. I think it deserves solid, perfect 10/10. I couldn't see any flow, everything was great.
Rolpbert: This is a great B-movie for people looking for a bit of a thrill.
cineast78: **Maybe the best "Alien" movie after "Aliens", but at least as good as Prometheus (but in a different way)**
I enjoyed this movie a lot. It didn't try to be edgy or special – it seems to be directed by a guy who loved the first 2 Alien movies from the 80ies and wanted to add a movie as best as he…
kevin2019: "Alien: Romulus" is a visually admirable film, but it really has nothing new to show us and even worse than that it has nothing fresh to say. It is merely content to plunder inspiration from the preceding films and the only entry in the series which appears to be left unplundered is "Alien 3" (1992)…
JPV852: The Alien franchise has had its ups and downs with mostly the latter in recent years. This latest one, which takes place in between Alien: Covenant and Alien in the timeline, is a solid entry from Fede Alvarez and is more in the vein of the first film in terms of look and tone. The story is pretty b…
RoRo Nereus: Fede Álvarez delivers a film in Alien: Romulus that tries to revitalize the franchise but stumbles on several key aspects. While visually appealing and faithful to the oppressive atmosphere characteristic of the saga, the movie lacks a solid narrative and memorable characters.
The script relies t…
