The BMD review suggests it's next best after Alien & Aliens. Only skimmed either one tho, fearful of spoilers.The writer of the Forbes one liked Alien: Resurrection and claims that Prometheus was just a variation on the "haunted house" formula, so I'm a little hesitant to trust their opinion. But they did say it was good for what it is trying to do, they are just bored of it and want an Alien film set in a different genre(?), not sure what genre however...It also got 4/5 in NME: http://www.nme.com/reviews/movie/alien-covenant-review
