I saw the midnight show while I was at work tonight. Anyone else seen it yet?

My verdict: good looking, but kinda muddled.

It's not out here yet but I am excited to see; it's an Alien prequel (maybe?) and has a trio of awesome youngish actors: Idris Elba, Michael Fassbender and Guy Pearce.

From what I heard it is supposed to be a prequel set at an unknown time before the first one, me and my friends all liked the other ones so we're going to see this one.

There are a couple of things that set up for Alien and then there are others that are different.

It looks and feels like an Alien movie. It is absolutely set in the same universe as the other movies.

Not overly impressed, actually. Just saying.

Going by the critic comments on Rotten Tomatoes, it looks like this might be one of those films that you either love or hate, and that may get more interesting with repeated viewings.

I have no first-hand, yet, but hope to catch it in 3D.

Looked good, well acted, but massive plot holes.

I was considering going to see this, but if it's a prequel of sorts to 'Alien' I probably won't. While I enjoyed 'Alien' well enough, I'm so over the 'squicky alien monster' thing...

The local reviewers here said that if you want to enjoy the film you have to lower your expectations (don't think of it as a prequel to the Alien movies).
