Alien: Covenant [Blu-ray]

Scary and gives me the creeps, but loved watching it, I hate the Alien but a brilliant film. Watched the whole set in order and it's worth being scared to death.

Good film

Not for the first time I’m baffled by the one star reviews awarded by Amazon customers. I can only assume that they feel personally cheated or let down by Covenant, because there is nothing about this film that deserves such a harsh reaction. Yes it is flawed, but it’s still entertaining with great design and effects and features an impressive performance (or performances) from Michael Fassbender as androids Walter and David. After the lukewarm response to Prometheus, which disappointed fans by not being sufficiently Alien-esque, Ridley Scott clearly decided to bridge the gap but ended up creating something of a hybrid: Covenant still carries forwards themes established in Prometheus but brings back facehuggers, the xenomorph and ratchets up the blood splattering. This appears not to have pleased either camp in the Alien franchise fanbase as (a) it leaves many questions raised in Prometheus unanswered and (b) the philosophising gets in the way of the pure carnage some fans want. Personally I quite like the fact that Scott is trying to create depth and interest in a franchise that had descended into bog standard sci-fi horror mayhem, though like many others I do find the number of loose ends rather frustrating. Not only does Covenant not answer the questions raised in Prometheus, it asks more questions which are then not themselves resolved. These mainly revolve around the motives of David: for example why (spoiler alert!) did he wipe out the Engineers? Is he just deranged, or is there some twisted logic behind his actions? And if David created the facehugger eggs, how did they end up on a derelict juggernaut that had clearly been rotting on LV-426 for several years when the Nostromo crew found it? Others critics have talked about the stupidity of the Covenant’s crew and while I can understand this complaint it’s worth pointing out that the whole franchise started with an intelligent man sticking his face into an alien egg which had just opened. I don’t recall anyone complaining about the implausibility of Kane’s actions (or for the matter Ripley and Parker’s when they send Brett off alone to look for the cat), probably because so many place the first movie on a lofty pedestal where it is immune from criticism, but really the Covenant crew aren’t really that much more imprudent than the folks aboard the Nostromo. Let’s not forget that they don’t know anything about Engineers, facehuggers, xenomorphs or neomorphs and don’t know that David has blown a few spark plugs. While Fassbender is brilliant, the rest of the cast have more of a struggle on their hands with their one-dimensional characters. Katherine Waterston is fine as the female lead but she’s no Ripley and the scene with her swinging around below the lander while battling the xenomorph looks like something out a Marvel movie. Billy Crudup makes an impression as the man of faith who is forced to take command, though this angle is not explored deeply enough, and the rest of the cast is basically there to provide fodder for the monsters. I was actually surprised that there were not more howls of protest at how this movie treated Elizabeth Shaw, the heroine of Prometheus – it’s (another spoiler alert) reminiscent of how Hicks and Newt were written out of the equation in Alien 3 and is very disappointing. And another bizarre issue with the cast is the fleeting appearance of James Franco. One can only assume that when he signed on the part of Captain Branson was more substantial and it ended up being reduced in rewrites. The film looks and sounds great on blu ray, though the extras are a bit underwhelming. There are a few short films featuring members of the Covenant crew which are hit-and-miss. 'The Last Supper’, where the crew enjoy a meal together before going into hypersleep, is good (and features not only an amusing reference to the first Alien movie but also provides Franco with more dialogue that he has in the film itself), as is ‘The Crossing’ which shows what happened when David and Shaw reached the Engineers’ home world, but 'Phobos', which shows crew members undergoing a harrowing psychological examination, is overlong. Also here is an absurdly exhaustive library of David’s artwork; while this is interesting to a point, having to click on the categories one at a time is laborious and it would have been better if the images had been split into fewer separate galleries. There are also some deleted and extended scenes which not only feature yet more James Franco, but also include further dialogue between David and Weyland in the prologue in which the former explains the story behind Wagner’s 'Entry of the Gods into Valhalla' where he describes men as 'cruel' and their creators as ‘false gods’. Could this form the basis for his later actions? The meat of the bonus features is a decent ‘making of’ documentary bizarrely titled ‘Ridley Scott - Master Class’. It covers all the bases including writing, casting, design and effects, though does so in a somewhat superficial way. Finally there is a commentary, a gallery of concept art and a couple of trailers. I really enjoyed Covenant, though perhaps the fact that my expectations had been lowered by reading the negative reviews was a factor, and I’d firmly place it in third place behind the first two movies in the franchise. I for one hope that Scott does get to make more Alien movies, if for no other reason than to tie up all the loose ends he’s created. I’d also be more than happy to spend more time in the company of that delightfully bonkers android.

ALIEN: COVENANT [2017] [Blu-ray + Digital] Ridley Scott On Terrific Form! Witness The Creation Of Fear! Spine Bursting Action! Ridley Scott returns to the universe he created in ‘ALIEN.’ With ‘ALIEN: COVENANT,’ the second chapter in a prequel trilogy that began with the film ‘PROMETHEUS’ and connects directly to Ridley Scott's 1979 seminal work of science fiction. Bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, the crew of the colony ship Covenant discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world, whose sole inhabitant is the "synthetic" android named David [Michael Fassbender], who is the survivor of the doomed and ill-fated Prometheus expedition. FILM FACT: Principal photography began on April 4, 2016, at Milford Sound in Fiordland National Park, New Zealand, and wrapped on 19th July, 2016. Effects houses Odd Studios and CreatureNFX provided the film's makeup and animatronic creature effects. Director Ridley Scott reported that the first cut of the sci-fi film was two hours and twenty-three minutes long, and was eventually edited down to the two hours and three minutes of the released version.

When the director Ridley Scott released the film ‘PROMETHEUS’ in 2012, he was strangely reticent on the question of whether it was a prequel to the famed ‘ALIEN’ sci-fi franchise, maintaining that only “the keen fan will recognise the strands of Alien’s DNA structure.” More importantly regarding the cinematic genealogy, is the fact that ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ is actually pretty darn good and extremely very scary, and totally your worst nightmare. The year is 2104, 11 years after the events of the film ‘PROMETHEUS’ and we find ourselves, as we so often do, on a space ship in the midst of a long journey. This is the Covenant, a colony ship bearing 2,000 frozen souls and 1,140 embryos on a terraforming mission to a planet called Origae-6. Along the way, however, a “neutrino burst” damages the ship and the android on call, Walter [Michael Fassbender] wakes the crew up early. The Captain Branson [James Franco] is tragically killed by a malfunction in his sleeping pod, leaving his first mate, Christopher Oram [Billy Crudup], in command. While repairing the damage to the ship, the pilot, Tennessee [Danny McBride], detects a signal from a nearby planet. Remarkably, it could even appear to this naïve crew, that this world appears even more suitable for colonization than the ship’s original destination; the crew decides to reroute and find out what’s going on. The landing party descends onto the planet’s surface and soon discovers, however, that all is not as it seems. Suffice to say that this is the home world of the Engineers, the towering race that seeded Earth with human beings millions of years earlier, and towards which the survivors of the film ‘PROMETHEUS,’ Elizabeth Shaw [Noomi Rapace] and the android David [Michael Fassbender] and of course we saw them charted their course at the end of the sci-fi film ‘PROMETHEUS.’ There is plenty to admire here, especially the stunning awesome sound design that is totally masterful, and especially the deadly silence on this petrified planet crackles with icy dread. Michael Fassbender’s performance is an elegant pas de deux that effortlessly delineates between the two identical androids, but the only difference with this android is that he talks with an American accent, which I cannot understand why they decided to do this? But the film is laboriously talky, filled with expository dialogue as stale as the recycled air on a spaceship. Long gone is the naturalistic banter that made the film ‘ALIEN’ so potent and, with it, the ability to explore its ideas through image alone rather than pages of over-written words. An eerie prologue reintroduces the android David [Michael Fassbender], one of the films Prometheus’s few survivors, whom we see talking to his creator Weyland [Guy Pearce] in flashback. Piero della Francesco’s Nativity hangs on the wall beside them, and David regards the painting quizzically: something about the notion that the most enduring gods are born rather than just invented seems to seep into his circuits. This is the first of the film’s near-countless allusions to devotional and gothic art. In 2017, no one can hear you scream for an existential sci-fi thriller. To director Ridley Scott’s credit he has taken the best aspects of the first ‘ALIEN’ sci-fi film and put in extra shock scenes together in the sci-fi film ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’. There is the typical slasher film horror scenario of the first sci-fi film, punctuated by the gun firing mayhem of the second one. There is as usual plenty of gore and people get killed in deliciously gruesome ways, and your appreciation of said scenes depends on your proclivity towards horror cinema. The ‘back burster’ Xenomorph is a nice update to the original chest burst scene with the actor John Hurt, and the new age special effects take things to their ultimate extreme level, getting a sufficiently squirmy reaction for sci-fi horror fans. It is also never a boring sci-fi film, especially in the scenes featuring Michael Fassbender as a potentially dangerous character of the evil kind, in fact he acts like a typical Machiavellian character where he is in control, meaning the android is devious, cunning, crafty, artful, wily, sly, scheming, designing, conniving, opportunistic, insidious, treacherous, perfidious, two-faced, tricky, double-dealing, unscrupulous, deceitful and totally dishonest. We are all for more ALIEN franchise sci-fi films in trying to give us the answers we seek, as long as the storyline is inventive like what Ridley Scott has done with ‘ALIEN: COVENTANT.’ But the question that remains, where does the ALIEN franchise sci-fi films go to in the future? Ridley Scott is now 80 years old and plans to make more ALIEN sci-fi films, but going by the formulaic nature of this sci-fi horror film, hopefully someone might suggest a new angle on how to stop these monsters procreating. It’s difficult to figure out what other surprises are left for these grotesque and horrific Xenomorphs, as sometimes it feels slightly exhausting to watch another ALIEN film waiting for the eggs to attack these not very smart people on these spaceships. Perhaps it’s time to let someone else to take a stab at this sci-fi franchise to explore a totally new avenue. ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ is director Ridley Scott’s latest ALIEN sci-fi horror film finally answers some important questions while returning to the serious horror roots and one that was not afraid to ask big questions but, more often than not, it does so by unsubtly spouting them out of the mouths of its characters. It is unapologetically bold and brash in its handling of intellectual material, but it sort of works for a few reasons. For one, the reveal of how and why the xenomorphs were created is rewarding within the terms director Ridley Scott laid out in the film ‘Prometheus.’ And none of this would’ve worked without the performance of Michael Fassbender, who once again plays the ship’s android and delivers a lot of the stodgier material with ease while gracefully wading through the rising melodrama, conducting Scott’s bombastic sci-fi symphony with total conviction. Even when things become faintly ridiculous, he remains utterly compelling. ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ strikes a more favourable balance between the unwieldy philosophical ideas of Prometheus and the classic horror and suspense of the 1979 original film. Despite continuing the film ‘Prometheus’ questionable line of inquiry into the xenomorphs origins and occasionally adopting its histrionic tone for entire scenes, and ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ framework and exciting action put enough new spins on the series most reliable touchstones that the cast is able to carry it through to a satisfying end. Those who enjoyed the film ‘Prometheus’ and I am one of them, will really enjoy how the ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ sci-fi film continues on the themes and story from director Ridley Scott’s return to the franchise, which really excited me whenever these sci-fi franchise films are released and now the wait is over. The only slightly negative aspect of this film, is that it is crying out to have been made in 3D as follow up to the previous ‘PROMETHEUS’ sci-fi film.

The black levels are natural throughout and very deep at times. The scenes that transpire at night in the wheat field look totally amazing. Since it’s a dark space opera so to speak I would go as far as to say the colour palette is pretty well spot on for how you would want it to look. There’s nothing exaggerated or overblown and when those explosions go off it blinds you like any good explosion in the dark of night should. As to the skin tones, they are all very pasty white and natural throughout because of being stuck in outer space for the very long period in travelling outer space and I didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary and every one had a healthy glow to them unless they were ill, you know sick from the alien bug in them. But there is one very negative aspect of viewing this film, is that it should have been shot in 3D, especially being a follow up to the previous film. Please Note: Playback Region B/2: This will not play on most Blu-ray players sold in North America, Central America, South America, Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia. Blu-ray Audio Quality – 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment presents this Blu-ray disc in an awesome 7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio experience and gives a great deal of soundscape expansion here and all the sounds we hear are fine and totally pristine down to hearing a pin drop. Other good sound effects is when you experience the harsh weather environments, crashes, explosions, rain, bumps in the night and so much more in a soundscape audio experience and absolutely nothing gets lost here. Even the quietest whimper is heard above it all and I really have to commend on the way they brought this track to life with the utmost of authenticity. The rear speakers were constantly engaged, but never at a level that sounded forced or unnatural. What is also very atmospheric is the interior of the spaceship, especially whenever the doors are sliding open and closed and the smoke steaming up all around you and to hear the growl of the alien hatchlings and the screams you get to hear as a result. The rain sound effects are another totally cool sound effect, which lends in credibility to putting you in the middle of it all here. The dialogue levels were always clean, prioritized and intelligent throughout and I never strained once to hear any of the spoken words from the actors, which is another total plus!

AUDIO COMMENTARY BY DIRECTOR RIDLEY SCOTT: Here we are welcomed by Ridley Scott who informs us he was the director of the film ‘ALIEN: COVENANT,’ and he also informs us that with this audio commentary of this film, it will be off the cuff and that nothing is really planned, just making comments that will be totally fresh. Ridley talks about his first film ‘ALIEN’ and he felt he had to revisit the Alien story by making the sci-fi film ‘PRMEHTEUS’ and asking the questions, who would make such nasty bio mechanoid intergalactic hideous thing and for what reason, so Ridley felt ‘PROMEHTEUS’ was a step forward to discover how and why, so Ridley felt at the beginning of ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ he felt we needed a link between the two sci-fi films and then starts to talk about the PROLOGUE at the start of ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ and the banter between the two people that were seen in the sci-fi film ‘PROMETHEUS’ and explaining the scenario, especially via the A.I David and how dangerous the human realises David could be and how the human is vulnerable, because the human is jealous of David as he cannot live forever, but of course in the sci-fi film ‘PROMEHTEUS’ the human gets dealt a mighty blow in shortening his life. Ridley gives great praise about the genius film music composer Jerry Goldsmith and why Ridley Scott decided to use again the original composed music from the film ‘ALIEN’ for the start of ‘ALIEN: COVENANT,’ as Ridley really feels Jerry Goldsmith is a genius and always does the best film music scores and very relevant for ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ as it links the two films so perfectly. When the space craft Covenant hits the solar flair and causes damage to the solar flares and wakes up the main crew, Ridley talks about all those actors and why they were chosen for this mission and what their jobs would be in real life. Ridley explains about the massive solar panels and what they would be made of and says NASA is thinking of using the same material for any future long distant space travel and in reality would be the same size as four English football fields. Scientists have spoken to Ridley in saying they get their ideas from watching his sci-fi films, as Ridley seems to solve any problems beforehand that might happen with real life space travel and so they feel Ridley Scott has helped the advancement of space travel. When the team from the Covenant land on the planet, Ridley talks a lot about the locations in Fiordland National Park, South Island in New Zealand, and informs us what is real and what was CGI computer generated images. A lot of the time Ridley just rambles on about the technical aspect precise details of the filming and why they did certain scenes and just talked in general terms that would be more interesting to people who work in the film industry and just went over my head, as some of the details was not very interesting. What also made me annoyed is that with certain scenes we view near the end of the film, unfortunately Ridley states the obvious and something we can work out for ourselves what we are viewing. When you see the control room on the Covenant, with the round table that was used in the ‘PROMEHTEUS’ sci-fi film, you see in the middle the nodding toy, well Ridley informs us that this is the same object that was seen in the original ‘ALIEN’ sci-fi film. One bit of exciting news Ridley informs us, is that he is in process of doing a screenplay for ‘ALIEN: COVENANT 2’ and ‘ALIEN: COVENANT 3.’ As we get to view the start of the credits, Ridley hope you enjoyed his little chat, and also asks if you enjoyed the film, bye! Special Feature: PRODUCTION GALLERY [2017] [1080p] [1.78:1] With this special feature you get to view four individual gallery images, where you get a selection of massive amount of awesome still images and with each titled gallery, you can either select AUTO ADVANCE to launch the images slideshow, where the images you view will change every five seconds or you can select MANUAL ADVANCE for your own individual preference in view the different image galleries and they are as follows: RIDLEYGRAMS [19 images]; CONCEPTUAL ART [115 images]; CREATURES [34 images] and ;OGOS AND PATCHES [34 images. THEATRICAL TRAILERS: Here you get to view two stunning theatrical trailers and they are as follows: Theatrical Trailer 1 [2017] [1080p] [1.78:1] [2:26] and Theatrical Trailer 2 [2017] [1080p] [1.78:1] [2:04]. One added bonus of viewing these trailers is that it is viewed in 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround Sound. Finally, ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ [2017] Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment presents Ridley Scott’s return to the universe he created, especially with this follow up from his previous directed film ‘PRMETHEUS.’ ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ is the newest chapter in the ground-breaking ALIEN franchise. Some harsh critics say that the film and pacing could be much better, but after all it is what it is, all about nasty Aliens! ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ is an unrelenting action movie where the horror arrives from unexpected quarters. But more importantly ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ pulls together some of the story threads thrown our way with the previous film ‘Prometheus.’ But with this Blu-ray disc release includes a series of refreshing extras to explore that further flesh-out the Alien ecosystem. ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ is an unrelenting action movie where the horror arrives from unexpected quarters. But more importantly ‘ALIEN: COVENANT’ pulls together some of the story threads thrown out with the previous ‘PROMETHEUS’ sci-fi film, But most of all it has magnificent visuals, mayhem and loads of buckets of the usual gore ensues, so enjoy! Highly Recommended! Andrew C. Miller – Your Ultimate No.1 Fil Aficionado Le Cinema Paradiso United Kingdom
