Great until the 2nd half, upon which whoever was in charge lost the plot and created a cringe fest.
I enjoyed it, until the ending.. WTF was that?
This is certainly a hot-take.
No way this movie deserves a 1/10 score.
The actor who played Andy was by far and away the best thing in it, so that's an even hotter takeOk call it 2/10 for the decent CGI and the violent bass shaking the cinema when they were in the spacecraft.
What I found poor about the movie:
The acting was poor.
The script was weak.
The plot was predictable and I didn't care about any of the characters.
The black guy who was the Forest Gump android was just laughable.
So yeah, 2 out of 10
I get that some people may not have enjoyed the film, but 2/10 ratings? I mean I've seen some shockingly bad films over the years and even those weren't 2/10, the Sharknado series for example normally end up around 3-4/10.
Some people have VERY high expectations!
If it wasn't for the Aliens connection and aesthetic as a stand alone movie I wouldn't have rated it very highly. I wouldn't rate it as a 2/10 though it wasn't that garbage despite a predictable, limited, plot and not really going anywhere interesting with it. The acting was at least serviceable with some better efforts from some and there was some neat concepts in there.
What I found more offensive about it was slapping in Alien(s) quotes which belong in a quite specific context and character into the movie.
That said I really hope they go back and develop on it - some things they got really right and some of the concepts were interesting/neat ideas so a lot of potential.
