Review Detail

I saw Prometheus upon release and really felt it was a total miss. The acting was bad, it had a ton of bloat. Fassbender must have a strong back because he carried the film. Covenant hit certain sweet spots, but missed on a lot. This takes the best part of the films, the best character, and shifts focus to a clear story and you really see how both unfold together. I quite enjoyed it.

A few of the scene changes are pretty stiff and stick out a bit, but it didn't detract from my overall enjoyment of the film. I agree with a previous review regarding the song change during the ending. I think with a little more polish this could be the gold standard. I feel it could be a bit tighter in certain spots like the Weyland reveal that he is on the ship.

JobWillins did a fantastic job with this and it's quite the feat. A great ride and the only way I'd prefer to watch either film.
