The new Alien movie is more cerebral than scary. A well thought out plot shows how the alien creatures came into being on the planet in the first place. Michael Fassbender plays a pivotal/duel role as synthetic robots, David who is evil and Walter who is good. One wins out at the end but you'll have to see for yourself what happens, which affects the plot. The suspense in the movie is great and the aliens are back in all their darkness. One gripe about the movie: the F**K word was used so often that I lost count of it. Was this script written by juveniles who are just learning how to swear? I'm not a prude but characters can express themselves without a lot of cussing and swearing. What could have been a classy movie was partially ruined by too much foul language. But good movie on the whole.
