A very underrated film in my opinion, sure it's very easy to compare to it to the film it claims to be loosely attached to (Alien, 1979) but as a standalone film it tackles some unique and fresh sci-fi. Focusing more so on the science and themes of the creation and origins of the human race, it doesn't boast to put action first which is a step in the right direction although not, what I assume the audience might have been expecting. Overall the film's pace does appear somewhat disjointed but the miraculous locations and CGI well but make up for the slower sequences set on places other than the ship.

In terms of acting, the casting and quality could not have done better. Both Noomi Rapace and Michael Fassbender deliver brilliant performances that have a chemistry that I hope will be expanded upon in the second film (if it comes to be). All in all it's completely understandable why some people may not bond to this film so easily but amongst all the fan boy reviews comparing it to Alien or Ridley Scott's other works I hope you go into this movie with an open mind and enjoy the film as it stands, not bringing in any exterior comparisons.

It is almost impossible to find any imperfections in this well paced and engaging film, from it's resourceful practical effects that shine brighter than even the most recent of films to its stellar cast of actors, to the entire crew. Alien is without a doubt one of the most deserving films of appraisal. It is my favourite film so it's hard to take off the rose- tinted glasses but this film will be remember through history as the one that spawned an entire sub-genre of films, an accomplishment that cannot be expressed in words. If I had to recommend one film to watch before you die, this would be it.

Special mentions to Ridley Scott for not only providing us with the gem, but also with Prometheus; A film providing a true prequel to the film which does in a sense downplay what made Alien so unique but still an enjoyable film to watch after this masterpiece.

This show is so awesome, any who enjoyed the randomness of shows like SpongeBob Squarepants and Adventure Time will love this. Animation is crisp and has great scripting and story lining. No flaws whatsoever. Bravest warriors follows the story of 4 teenagers who go around the galaxy helping people much like Finn and Jake in Adventure Time. They go on many random adventures and have amazing characters such as Catbug, Impossibear and The Emotion Lord. This show is recommended to anyone who enjoys great laughs while being appropriate for younger viewers although the TV show would debatably be recommended for an older audience to appreciate some of the humour.
