Boy was I wrong.
Now it's not that this is a bad movie. It just has so many plot holes and there are too many answered questions. It is also no where near the suck-fest that was Alien: Resurrection, but it was also no Alien either.
The acting is good. The pacing is a bit slow in the beginning, but I think that is on purpose to set the last acts.
There are some nice thrills in the Engineer's base. Still have no idea what they were all running from in the holo-recording. The creatures were interesting of course.
I noticed a lot of nods to the first two Alien movies. And because I had heard about it, little nods to Blade Runner as well.
There are some scary moments. I mean they won't rank up there with Alien. Though this movie did make me want to re-watch Alien.
Tally: Watched 24, New 19

I also kept my hopes high for this movie despite the poor reviews. I agree the acting was good however like you mentioned there were a lot of plot holes. Oh well it was a decent effort.
