I've been waiting for this Ridley Scott epic "prequel" to Alien ever since the movie was announced about two years ago. It has been released in Europe thus far. It will be released here in Canada June 8. For those of you that have seen it. What were your impressions? Does it live up to the greatness of the first film? Does Sir Ridley have a winner on his hands? I've heard the "scary" bits are over the top in comparison to the legendary "chest burster" of the first movie. And most importantly, does the story do justice to the theme at hand? That being the search for mankind's creation at the hands of alien entities.

and please...no spoilers!!:covermouth::covereyes::coverears:

Great movie, fantastic photography ("eye-candy"), and true to the Alien universe. There will most certainly be a sequel to the prequel. To be recommended.

A "prequel" of sorts. Apparently the "alien" we've all come to know and love is not in it. The story revolves around the "Space Jockey" creature from the first film. Check out the previews on Youtube. There's about 3 of them. It looks great.

Actually be careful with the trailers. They reveal wayyy to much of the film. This film will be great if you like dark science-fiction. Simple as that.

Well ive watched it!

Un-be-friggin-lievable.

One thing i will say there is only 1 very subtle reference to the other alien films and the film isnt actually a prequel.

Storyline and cinematography are great and it will keep you gripped throughout, fans of the original alien flicks will be glad to know that they used animatronics instead of cgi wherever possible, but obviously the film is mostly cgi.

So i thoroughly recommend seeing it.

7.5 out of 10

Completely agree I want to see it. Bad thing about living in a small town we don't get all of the movies.

I have just come in from seeing it. Very enjoyable.

Now I just need to sit down and digest all that i saw.
