Alien: Covenant [Blu-ray]

前作の秘密がわかります。 前作が好きな方にオススメです！ 派手さもあり、ワクワクします

ご存知エイリアンシリーズの一作。 プロメテウスからの続編で、そっちを観てからじゃないとちょっと訳が分からない。 この映画は、基本、凄いバカ。 いきなり、初めての星で、宇宙服無しで調査する。 しかも、見事に鼻から耳から、体内に変なものを入れちゃうっていうね。 もう、バカって言われること承知でわざとやってるでしょ、絶対。 初めて星に降りて、タバコまで吸っちゃってるしさあ。 バカで物語を動かすってのは、ハリウッドでは良くやるけど、 乗組員はほんと、全部ひどい。笑。 アメリカ人には絶対に宇宙探査をやらせてはいけないね。 ところで、この作品、時系列は一作目の前ってことになってるけど、 辻褄的なところでも、なんか、おかしくない？ 1でエンジニア出てたよね。あそこで、エイリアンがエンジニアの胸を破ってなかった？ でもエンジニアって、絶滅させたよね。 なんか、成長形態のまま、胸から飛び出てくるし、あれはなんなの？ そもそも、プロメテウスからの、このキリスト教になぞらえちゃった設定がね。 そんなの、B級設定も甚だしいでしょ。 でも、ここまで言っておいて、星は4つと高評価。 映像は良いし、なんだかんだ、楽しめちゃったからね。笑。

暇つぶしに見るぐらい、エイリアンの構成は大抵同じような感じ、これもそう、あまり書くとネタバレになるので 控えるが、エイリアン2と酷似している、リプリーのエイリアンが正史で2で完結してると思ったほうがいい、 これはあくまでも同じ名前のにたような作品

この映画公開当時個人が日常的にAIと触れ合う機会はそれほどなかったが、AIが日常生活に浸透した2026年の時点では様々な点で興味深い。AIの出した解答を別のAIが検証することは現実世界で必須になりつつある。AIの盛大なハルシネーションを経験したことのある人にはこの映画の「怖さ」に刺さるものがあるのでないだろうか。それにしても、ラストでワーグナー「ラインの黄金」をダーティーな方向で使うのはどうかな？

ミストやセブンと同じバッドエンド映画 映像だけは立派だが2度以上は観たいと思わない。

シリーズのファンならまぁ楽しめるかなぁ…という感じ あれだけの優秀な人たちなはずなのに、登場人物のリスク管理がB級ホラーの人くらいになってるのがなんか違和感ではあったけどまぁそれはこういう作品なのでね。

発売当初のBD持ってるので、投稿の為作業しながら垂れ流し。 正直、吹き替えは見る価値一切無しなので☆１。字幕は☆2。 作品自体が酷い上、気の抜けた日本語が拍車をかけ僅かな緊張感さえ皆無。 プロメテウスで3,4の落ち目っぷりを若干回復させたにも拘らず こいつでどん底へ突き落した。エイリアンシリーズはとうに終焉。 ※ロムルスは見るだけ時間の無駄。過去作の力を借りても☆1以下。

どうしようもない駄作というわけではないですが、ホラー部分に「今さらこんなコテコテ描写する！？」みたいなB級感が漂い、本家監督による重厚なエイリアン映画を期待して観た人はがっかりだろうなぁというのは察せられます。ただリドリー・スコットってモンスターホラーの人じゃないんですよね。初代エイリアンだって怪獣大暴れが主題ではない。なので畑違いな方向をヘンに頑張ってしまった印象。 一方、主人公達が植民団であるというシチュエーションを活かした緊張感や、おそらく一番描きたかったであろう「アンドロイドの人生観」部分は十分見応えあります。正直、エイリアン抜いて形而上的SFや探索パートに全力注いだらもっと評価高かったかも。なんにせよ観る価値ナシとかではないと思います。好評な次回作ロムルスと比べると、ハラハラドキドキ映画としては当然ロムルスが上ですが、雰囲気とか目指してるものは個人的にこちらのが好き。

Just to let people know the 4k disc has german writing on it and the bluray disc has english writing. I have tested the disc and its in english audio but once you open the case your faced with german writing which i dont like.

Si eres adicto a las películas de Alíen, ésta es recomendable por su imagen y sonido Película en buen estado, sin daños y llegó antes de tiempo Gracias!

Alien: Covenant in Blu-ray continua la storia dei primi film della saga e amplia la lore in modo interessante. La qualità video e audio è ottima, con immagini nitide e dettagliate, perfette per il grande schermo di casa. Trama coinvolgente, con tensione e colpi di scena, ideale per gli appassionati della serie e per chi vuole approfondire l’universo Alien. Consigliato.

ALIEN:COVENANT (2017) had the deck stacked against it going in. It had the arduous task of both trying to live up to Ridley Scott's more revered '79 Alien masterpiece as well as James Cameron's widely acclaimed action sequel, '86 Aliens, PLUS it had to both somewhat make up for Scott's dubious '12 prequel Prometheus with it's mixed reaction. Prometheus was a movie that was hyped to the hilt and made a ton of money, but alternated between being hailed some ethereal "people just don't get it" masterpiece (a la 2001) versus a pretentious, bloated, flashy, terribly acted CGI exercise that was nothing more than hot garbage. Count me in the latter group! LOL I really dislike Prometheus and can't get past it's utterly stupid characterizations which sank the film for me. At the end of the day, I think character trumps CGI, something I randomly preach in my reviews. I'll take character over effects any day of the week and twice on Sunday. For myself, in terms of characters, Alien:Covenant absolutely craps on Prometheus for the simple fact that not a single character in Covenant ANNOYED me, while virtually every single character in Prometheus accomplished that dubious feat! To me, Covenant is the 2nd best Alien film (minority opinion, I know) and it's not really saying much as Scott's '79 film Alien is one of the great multi-genre (sci-fi, horror, thriller, character study) of all time. The overrated '86 sequel Aliens is just an abrasive summer action flick, nothing more. Then there's the underwhelming Alien3 and Alien:Resurrection. And of course the massive disappointment Prometheus. So Covenant didn't have much to overcome. What Covenant did that Prometheus failed to do is keep it simple: simple story, simple characters, simple plot and in doing so, culminates in a very re-watchable, enjoyable summer movie experience. Also, unlike Prometheus, Covenant actually makes me look forward to the next sequel! Covenant starts with a prologue sequence of the creation of the android David (the best character from Prometheus, reprised by the great Michael Fassbender) in the early 21st century by billionaire Peter Weyland (well played in esteemed fashion by Guy Pearce, also reprising his role, but this time as the young version of Weyland). Peter and David converse about the human condition and the irony that even though Weyland created him, David will actually live forever while Weyland is destined to expire, like all humans. Flash forward to the early 22nd century and the colonial spaceship Covenant, maintained on it's way to the habitable Origae-6 planetary system by the ship's synthetic being Walter (also played by Fassbender in a completely believable dual role). The ship encounters a solar flare which causes it's life-support systems to malfunction, compelling Walter to get the ship's main computer "Mother" to awake the 14-member crew from cryosleep and fix the ship, which is also carrying 2000 colonists still in cryosleep and over 1000 embryos for building a new world. With the incident causing the original Captain's cryotube to fail and burn up, the leadership role is taken over by Captain Oram (excellently played by veteran actor Billy Crudup). Oram is a man of faith and a bit shaken by the incident and unsure of if the crew trusts his leadership style. The 2nd-in-command is the feisty Daniels (strongly played by Katherine Waterston), the wife of the original captain who must soldier on without her husband. Rounding out the main characters are down-to-earth ship's pilot Tennessee (winningly played by Danny McBride), stalwart crew biologist and Oram's wife Karine (stolidly played by Carmen Ejogo), crew shuttle pilot and Tennessee's wife Faris (confidently played by Amy Seimetz), security team leader Sergeant Lope (cheekily played by Demian Bichir), and married crew co-pilots Upworth and Ricks (solidly played by Callie Hernandez and Jussie Smollett). Upon repairing the ship, the crew discovers a transmission on a nearby (and apparently life-sustaining) planet and go to investigate the distress signal as well as research and map out the planet as a permanent home in lieu of traveling for another 7 years to Origae-6. Upon touching down, the planet at first appears perfect, but as the group further investigates, it's not long before things turn out to good to be true, and the group runs into trouble and must navigate their way out of it somehow. Surprisingly, the film has a healthy amount of action and the scenes are all tense and edge-of-your-seat. The aliens are pretty intimidating and agile in this as Covenant combines elements from the 3 most popular films of the franchise Alien, Aliens, and Prometheus. Yet I feel as if Covenant stands well on it's own as an entertaining horror-thriller-action movie. I feel as if Covenant took the "less is more" approach and succeeded in spades! I had to re-watch Covenant (glad to do it) to realize how perfectly modulated the supporting performances were and how in sync the actors played off each other to resonate as a real crew. Just subtle things showed these people had known each other for a long time and I liked the way their rather by-the-numbers dialogue bounced off each other very naturally. While Fassbender easily stole the show as Walter/David (doesn't he always?), the rest of the actors should be commended for being very natural in their performances, unlike the characters in Prometheus who felt like cardboard cutout cartoons most of the time. I think the people roasting this movie for bad performances and weak, stupid characters do it a major disservice. I think they are conflating it too much with Prometheus, which is an abomination in terms of both character and acting. The characters in Covenant behaved very real to me, the way they reacted to the rather crazy circumstances they encountered. The shocks, the jump scares, the reactions all felt genuine. I might say that I tend to agree that the CGI wasn't the greatest, but as I've repeatedly said, I'll take character over CGI anyday and for me, the characters worked in this film, along with many other elements that kept it entertaining from start to finish. I would say this movie is underrated and give it a few years and people will re-visit Covenant as the deserving addition to the Alien franchise it truly is.

Very very good ! Highly recommend amd ive purchased other things that were successful amd good condition quick to arrive! 5 stars !!!
