Isn't "Elizabeth Shaw" the woman who makes the Christmas mints? Anyway, here she's been persuaded by "Meredith" (Charlize Theron) to diversify into the intergalactic travel game with a trip aboard the eponymous science vessel.…

Follows greatly the Hero with a Thousand Faces, very well executed. Probably the best science-fiction ever made, along Kubrick's Space Odyssey 2001, where you can actually learn something about true **technology**. Well done for those who can see. We need more!

Good Sci-fi 👍🏾 Finding a map left by our creators and then following it lightyears away for the search of the meaning of life, and immortality... Forget the horror part of the film, that plot alone had me fully immersed. _I watch this one at least twice a year. _

Aliens was a fun movie. But it was just Space Marines v Monsters. It was just a merger of action and science fiction.…

Although this is not a great movie, I was positively surprised, given the tons of bad references I got from this movie. The background story is interesting and the cast is quite decent. Theron and Elba played well but specially remarkable are Rapace and Fassbender. In any case, it does have many flaws in the script.…

The special effects are great, the scenery and photography is lovely but the film is as a whole a big disappointment. You would have thought that with such a budget they could have hired some guy to make a basic sanity check of the script but obviously that wasn’t in the budget for this one.…
