Here’s some advice for future filmmakers: if you’re going to rip off other movies, make sure they’re good ones. Fede Alvarez may have borrowed from the first two Alien movies when making Alien: Romulus, but at least he stole from the best. It’s hard to make a bad movie when Alien and Aliens are your templates.
And make no mistake, Alien: Romulus is not a bad movie. Frustrating, perhaps, and derivative, but nowhere near bad. Other critics have described it as a “Greatest Hits,” movie, a criticism it’s hard to argue with. I would, however, point out that if you are going to cover someone else’s hits, there are worse artists than Ridley Scott and James Cameron to emulate.
