Lots of screaming and gore; blurry camera motion; deliberate. Seemed that some loose ends from first earlier viewing tied down. It kind of made more sense this time... I think. Anyway, I didn't fall asleep on it this time and actually wouldn't mind a 3rd viewing down the road - hopefully that will pull it all together- if that might be possible. 3rd time's the charm, eh?

I was dissapointed TBH, definitely expected more. It wasn't bad but the ad campaign really made it look great and it was just ok.

I'm in the apparent minority who enjoyed it thoroughly.

You have to watch it at least twice.

Just to confirm that the entire story was written on a tiny drink napkin in some bar in Pasadena at 2am.

The napkin said
"This story is an Alien prequel....
Wait, no it isn't.
Yes.
Maybe.
Jesus.
The End."

I'm a brilliant scientist who is scared of everything.

Now I will forget how to read a map and play with the alien vagina worm.

Yes, absolutely. If you watch it enough times, it eventually stops sucking. It's like magic.

I enjoyed it. Don't understand the hate it gets here.

The hate may come from those who don't feel spoon fed by simplistic plot and dialogue, and like only one dimensional characters.

I really liked and fail to see how it doesn't work as an Alien prequel. It ends with the xenomorph.

I'm a scifi fan and enjoyed it. It wasn't great but it was good entertainment.

I liked it. I don't mind a movie that's not clear cut. I don't require answers to every question.

The DVD release was promoted as "questions will be answered".

Then they weren't.

Any time you have to market your dvd to answer questions then you have a problem with your film.

It was utter shite. It was a terrible terrible movie.
