I will try to give an honest review without revealing too much. I am a fan of the Alien franchise. I didn't think Prometheus deserved the hate it got and I feel the same for this. Yes, it does have a few poor plot points and annoying characters but generally it's not a bad watch if you avoid trying to compare it to the original movies.

OK, It's not a great film, but honestly it's not a one star ether. I liked this as much as I liked the later movies in the original Alien series, which were not great ether. No, they really weren't! I think a lot of the one star reviews are because this wasn't what people wanted from a new episode in the Aliens franchise. That's fine, but comparing it with most other stuff out there its maybe middling at best, but realistically not in the same league as genuine 'one star' films. I thought it was OK in its own right, but different from the 'classic' Alien movies. I did like Prometheus quite a bit, and do think that was better than some of the original Alien films in many respects, although not the first two.

It's not as bad as Promethius, but it's still lacking that something. This is what I call milking the franchise. The studio are stringing it out for the sake of making a movie. I don't want to see a Ridley Scott cinematic master piece, I want a dirty movie, like with Aliens, with a story I'll love & enjoy. It's not the lack of gore here in this film, it's the lack of emotion & story. You don't care about the characters. You're left with a feeling of "is that it" all in all, next film, new director, better script.
