A space ship, six crew members, a hostile extraterrestrial creature: we present you Life – Origin Unknown, today in the movies. Check out our review.
Ready to welcome the Alien Xenomorphs : Covenant with open arms (or almost)? If you still hesitate, we have a film of the same kind to propose to you by way of training: Life – Unknown Origin, of which you can discover the trailer on melty . Directed by Daniel Espinosa, this film is a good mix between Alien: The eighth passenger and Gravity and should therefore please lovers of horror and space. The pitch? Aboard the International Space Station, the six crew members make one of the most important discoveries in human history: the very first proof of an extraterrestrial life on Mars. But as they deepen their research, Their experiences will have unexpected consequences and the life form they have brought back into their ship will prove to be far more intelligent than they thought, and also very very hostile. They will therefore have to find a solution to get rid of it and above all, to survive. A space shutter panting in other words, where the tension is more than palpable and where the suspense that releases you hangs on your seat from the beginning to the end.
However, sensitive souls abstain because the creature that invited to this space station is very scary and clearly has nothing to envy the Xenomorphs of the saga Alien . The director did not skimp on the hemoglobin and the gore scenes that make you scream “Oh my God!” Add to this a controlled staging and a four-star cast consisting of Ryan Reynolds, Which brings here the humorous touch of the film, but also Jake Gyllenhaal and Rebecca Ferguson whose performances are striking, and you are with a good horrifying science fiction movie as you like them. One small flat in this spatial partition: If Life – Unknown Origin holds us in suspense all along, it does not bring anything special to films of the genre and so we do not really come out transcended. Even the final twist, which is not bad, is rather predictable at the end. But it still remains a good mouthing before Alien: Covenant, whose new details about Walter and David were unveiled! And you, will you see it?

Passengers, Alien, Gravity … When being alone in space is not a part of pleasure

To find oneself alone in space, it is not always nice. Alien, Passengers, Gravity … all these examples will prove to you that above the clouds, it is rather hostile.
In some films, space has already been conquered. Take the Star Wars franchise example: aliens and humans live together in the immensity of the galaxy. Some characters have even forged strong bonds of friendship like Chewbacca and Han Solo. But in other cases, find themselves clueless (e) in space is almost a sign of impending death . Especially when your ship is inhabited by a somewhat hostile alien presence, the latter begins to have technical worries or unfortunate events are connected. On the occasion of the release of Passengers , melty made you a selection of films in which being alone (e) s in space is not a cakewalk.
A little in the way of Passengers, including Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt have entrusted us video interview is the most reliable in a crisis , Alien opens with characters who come too soon for their biostasis. And for good reason: their ship received an unknown signal and our heroes must go investigate it as stipulated in their contract. Of course, nothing happens as expected. A member is found “fertilized” by a Facehugger until a Xenomorph (Alien’s famous title) decides to get out of his body in a huge bloodbath. Enjoy your meal. Therefore, Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) has to deal with this mythical creature who will return in Aliens: the return , Alien 3 or Alien Resurrection . The ultimate proof that encounters in space are not always very sympathetic, especially when one meets an aggressive and murderous alien life!
When in 2013, Alfonso Cuarón – filmmaker behind Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban – realizes Gravity , the latter decides to adopt a realistic approach. His two heroes, Dr. Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) and Matt Kowalski (George Clooney), find themselves trapped in the immensity of space following a chain of unfortunate events. With a lack of oxygen and unable to get in touch with the earth, Gravity quickly took on the appearance of survival claustrophobic . The hope is very weak and the sword of Damocles, which weighs over the heads of the two heroes, gets closer and closer as the minutes pass. Definitely proof that space is not always a friendly place .
In Passengers , Chris Pratt, who will soon be on display from Jurassic World 2 in which Bryce Dallas Howard will be much more badass , and Jennifer Lawrence are facing a major problem. The ship in which they were traveling to take them to a distant colonized planet awoke them 90 years too early. A good excuse to stage a romance between the two heroes who gradually get closer. Except that it turns out that the malfunction of the ship hides something far more serious and the trailer reveals several moments of action with new characters that will emerge. It will make up today in room to discover the mysteries surrounding Passengers .
