| Boris Rozhin: Alien. Earth | |
| 2025-08-16 | |
| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin [ColonelCassad] On the road I watched a couple of episodes of the series "Alien. Earth" about how xenomorphs and the ghouls of varying degrees of vileness that join them end up on Earth. Even here the series is not original, this has already happened in "Requiem".
In this case, we have rather fantastic action films with small elements of horror. Filmed mediocrely, there are a lot of questions about the script, the atmosphere of suspense is completely killed. The picture is mostly good and in places quite beautiful. Mediocrely unless you are 71 going on 13 as I am... In general, a purely commercial product to milk the franchise a little more. The authors tried to be innovative, but in the end they rolled out a hodgepodge sprinkled with references. Of course, you can watch it and it looks even better than the recent "Romulus". But nothing more. Although, who knows, maybe in the remaining episodes the authors will be able to surprise with something. | |

| #3 I have not seen it. Written by Noah Hawley is a good sign. He did a decent job on the Fargo tv series. Being streaming, it is probably filmed on the cheap, but that doesn't mean you can't tell a story. |
