Kinda experienced the unexpected, as the new Ridley Scott 'Alien: Covenant' film was far better than I thought it would be. It was pretty great. Scott remained focused on the 'Prometheus' existential backstory of the mystery of creation and faith, and even inserted an Abel and Cain theme between two cyborgs - a power struggle between soulless beings made by man's power hungry mind and God complex. The film was pretty well cast and really didn't need the dumb creatures running around eating folks at all (they were just placed into this script to increase ticket sales, I'm convinced), all the movie needed was the human horror story of how bad things get when our faith is lost and left to blindly believing in objects that lack souls. Thumbs Up to M. Fassbinder, D. McBride, and R. Scott, you guys worked so well as a team and kicked ass in performances and film direction.
