The actors in the first movie were great. It was like watching real people rather than actors. Really drew you in. This one doesn't seem to have that and the cast seem too young for the roles they're playing. But maybe I'm just too old, or maybe it's aimed at a younger generation.

I’ve heard and read the age concern before but some of the actors in Alien were pretty young too. Also, film as an art form has evolved since then. I’m normally pessimistic or cautiously optimistic with franchise reboots these days but Romulus has me hopefully optimistic. Director had a lot of creative leash to make this movie. When inspired creatives are allowed to cook, tasty usually follows. 🤞🏻
