- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 December 2024I was a little trepidatious when I saw some reviews about this movie, but I love the Alien franchise so braved it and bought the DVD for myself.
I'm so glad I did, I thought Romulus was fantastic! It harkens back to the feel of the original Alien, with a more grungy feel to the ship, and bridges into Aliens throw backs in the second half of the movie too, with more action.
It's not on a par with those two absolute classics, but it's certainly a worthy installment, especially when compared to some recent efforts in other franchises have fallen really flat.
If you're a big Alien fan, this is a worthy watch, and even if you're not, it's still a good film to pass a few hours with.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 December 2024Having taken delivery of the DVD yesterday I have already watched it twice. The Dolby vision and the Atmos come together to make a brilliant movie overall. I have been an Alien fan since 79, some movies have received high praise and others not so much. The alien franchise needs all the help it can get these days and I honestly think that this latest movie has helped the overall credibility of our favourite extraterrestrial beastie. I do accept that Ridly Scott is the grandfather of the franchise however just like Simon Pegg should be kept away from story writing (Star Trek beyond) of my other science-fiction passion Mr. Scott must be reminded that other producers and directors may have new fresh ideas on which direction to take the franchise from here. Overall alien Romulus is a good blood dripping scary movie. 7.1.6
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 December 2024Disclaimer: I liked Prometheus. So there. Which I thought told an interesting story. It's a shame Covenant tried to go on with that and go fan pleasing alien stuff at the same time. Trashing what Prometheus had set up and not pleasing anyone as a result.
So now the franchise has to try something else. Which is a new story. Can be said without spoilers it's set between Alien and Aliens.
It has an opening scene which is rather like many books I've read. Where there's a prologue that doesn't feel as if it's anything to do with what follows. Yet if you bear with it things quickly make sense.
Lead character is Rain [Cailee Spaeny. Also seen earlier this year as Jessie in Civil War. I never realised it was her till looking at imdb just now]. Living and working on a Weylan Yutani mining planet, she looks after her brother Andy. Desperate to get away, she accepts an offer from four other individuals who need Andy's help to get into an abandoned company station and get things from there. They should be in and out in thirty minutes. What could possibly go wrong?
This grabbed me pretty quickly, because it makes you care for Rain and Andy right away. The main cast is small [including Isabella Merced. Who will be Hawkgirl in Superman next year] It does fill the other four characters in as it moves along. They do end up being three dimensional and rounded individuals. Also, I noticed the lighting right away. It's dark. But it's never too dark. You can always see what's going on. Which is nice.
Can't talk about the plot without spoilers. It does have a good story though. It fits itself firmly into this world continuity wise. It keeps things moving along. There are some very good set pieces and some very scary moments. The actor who plays Andy in particular shows some superb versatility.
There's some very impressive film making technology on display. Some wonderful space visuals as well. The shots you get are stunning. Some good physics involved also. The characters held my attention and I did want to see what was going to happen to them. It really does keep the tension going also.
However:
The last act of this just goes on a bit too long. It could probably do with losing about five to ten mins for pacing during this bit. So that let it down just a little.
Even so, I had a really good time with this and thought it was a great experience. It's not quite as stand alone as Prey and Rain is a little less potentially vulnerable than Naru. But was still a very good lead.
Continuity can sometimes become fan service, but....nothing that this did hit the wrong mark with me. Spoilers.
Well worth seeing on the big screen. In the dark cinema and with a big screen, it was an involving experience. Really enjoyed this. Also I think what this franchise needed. Although any further films will need the same level of attention to make them work as well.
Nothing extra during or after the end credits.
The dvd goes into the main menu when loaded with no ads or trailers.
There's no extras at all.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 December 2024I wrote a perfectly good review for this film, but Assazon decided it he something in it which it didn't like.
It didn't tell me what the issue was, or allow me to edit the original text. So it's all lost. Thus, this pointless rant.
Meanwhile, Alien Romulus is a great film with exceptional special and visual effects.
My only gripe would be the wince worthy lines taken from the previous films for nostalgia.
A worthy entry to the canon.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 December 2024VERY POORLY MADE ALIEN MOVIE,POORLY DIRECTED WITH A SEVERE LACK OF IMMAGINATION AND LINES STOLEN FROM OTHER ALIEN MOVIES.FROM A POOR SGI OF IAN HOLM TO ,,STAY AWAY FROM HER,YOU BIT/H''TO A REVERSE OF AN ALIEN QUEEN GIVING BIRTH TO A HYBRID TO A HUMAN GIVING BIRTH TO A HYBRID.....AND A BUNCH OF TEENAGERS RUNNING AROUND TO ACOMPLISH.....NOTHING
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 December 2024Very very disppointed with this and i was so looking forward to it.The cast are unbearably young.Must be between 15-21.Nothing against kids but the casting of youngsters makes a mockery of the whole thing.Mind you the newly born little aliens are a bit more vicious,as if they wernt vicious enough.But for me the movie doesnt work.Theres obviously a lot of money spent on the special effects but I just cant get past the age of the cast.Based on this,Alien 3 and Alien V Predator requiem look like classics..Wait till it comes down in price and you just might not mind paying less.

juanramillanReviewed in Spain on 18 December 2024
4.0 out of 5 stars Sà que tiene el audio en español, pero latino.
Si no te importa el audio en español latino, que es seleccionable en el menú del Blu-ray y 4K, Bastante buena calidad en dolby visión y audio, no se aprecian artefactos raros en las imágenes y no tiene grano. Por lo demás, me gusto más la segunda mitad de la pelÃcula. Una más de la saga, cada uno dirá si le gusta o no.
