- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: Alvarez has come up with a way to tie the original 1979 “Alien” to “Alien: Prometheus” in a third act stunner of creature design and visual effects.
- [New] | Herman Dhaliwal @ Cinema Sanctum
- Sarah Gopaul @ Digital Journal
- Excerpt: Director and co-writer Fede Alvarez understands the horror aspect of the assignment with monsters lurking in dark corners and saving the most ghastly creature for the end.
- Richard Gray @ The Reel Bits
- Excerpt: A visually stunning but narratively hollow Alien entry that struggles to escape the franchise’s repetitive and nostalgic traps.
- Harrison Martin @ Flixfrog
- Excerpt: Alien: Romulus is a great addition to this long-running franchise! Fede Álvarez is a master of horror. David Jonsson is a scene stealer as the fidgety synth Andy. I wouldn’t mind another midquel showing what went down on the Renaissance.
- Matt Oakes @ Silver Screen Riot
- Excerpt: A legacy sequel that thrives when it taps into what made the original ‘Alien’ such a tense outer space outing, ‘Alien: Romulus’ proves there’s still plenty of life in the Xenomorphs—and that life is best served with a hefty dose of death. Cailee Spaeny emerges as a strong final girl in Fede Alvarez’s nail-biting space horror venture, delivering a Ripley worthy performance that anchors the film’s tension and terror.
- Eddie Pasa @ DC Filmdom
- Excerpt: Director/co-writer Fede Álvarez makes Alien: Romulus slam headlong into the series’ canon, jolting us with scares and racing our anxiety off the scale.
- Allison Rose @ FlickDirect
- Excerpt: Alien: Romulus is a wild ride that will have your blood pumping from beginning to end.
- [New] | Diego Salgado @ Sofilm [Spanish]
- Josh Thayer @ The Forgetful Film Critic
- Excerpt: Alien Romulus feels like content produced to fit established IP specifications instead of being what it should be: an engaging and pulse-pounding story.
- Andrew Wyatt @ The Take-Up
- Sebastian Zavala @ MeGustaElCine.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Mixing the aesthetic of the original film with new ideas related to migration, limited opportunities and oppression by super-powerful corporations, and references to previous films, “Alien: Romulus” works as a solid new instalment.
