Alien: Rubicon

Don't waste your time watching this... Bad script, bad acting (really bad), bad CGI. What more could you ask for?

I could only stomach this for 10 minutes, then bailed on it.

Never saw the Alien. Never saw the Rubicon.

I went back and re-watched "Aliens" just to get the taste of this thing out of my head.

Don't get it confused with Alien: Romulus which might be a better flick.

This movie should be up for a Grand Prize in this year's Golden Raspberry Awards.

I wouldn't be surprised if it swept those awards and took home a bushel of raspberries.

It's that bad. Honest.

Take a nap instead of watching this, it will be time better spent.

Like another reviewer I thought it was something to do with the Aliens franchise but this movie doesn't even deserve the title of movie, instead it should be called a hodgepodge of how not to act. All the main actors were over doing their roles, especially the man playing the helicopter pilot. Possibly the only actor who played their role correctly was the daughter, she sort of held back her "enthusiasm" and seemed the most normal.

Some of the special effects were good, possibly the only saving grace, though someone needs to learn how to do explosions properly.

All up a waste of money and time.

Ok, it's a bad movie. But I kind of enjoyed it as a 'background movie' while I was doing some other stuff at the same time.

The helicopter conversations are visibly fake and so is a lot of other stuff. The character of captain Jeffe is laughable. Paul Logan is probably doing what is expected of him but the nonv-erbals of the captain are soooo over the top, it's funny. So still kind of entertaining.

What really annoyed me, however, is the fact that the makers used the naming syntax AND image of the original 'Alien' movies. Even though we get to see some aliens (that look different, by the way) for about 3 seconds total. This is very misleading marketing and that alone is enough to not score higher than 5.

I cannot believe Asylum got Michael Paré to play in this Alien Romulus copywrite infringement garbage. This studio has got to be breaking laws somehow by duping unsuspecting theater goers who may mistake this for the latest Alien movie Romulus, or even a newer one than that due to the "different" title "Rubicon" It is a crying shame that resources have to be wasted on trash from people who obviously have nothing to offer original in their lives but to steal others ideas and trash them so miserably. I couldn't get through just a few minutes in when I looked up the studio company and saw "Asylum" then I shut it off. Don't waste your time unless you have NOTHING else to watch at all.

I've enjoyed some of The Asylum's movies and have to admit their special effects have gotten better. Many times their movies fall into the so bad and ridiculous they are great category, but unfortunately this is not one of them. For all it's OK effects, 99% of this movie is just actors standing around in a room talking about the action. If you've seen the trailer you have seen the entire minute of good stuff in this fiasco. As usual there is some LOL absurd dialogue but not enough to make this enjoyable. While watching this and being bored by it I did wonder what these actors do when they get a call telling them they got the part in a movie from The Asylum ? Cry ? Laugh and curse fate ? Wonder how they're going to spend the $45 paycheck ? Not worth watching.
