It had some interesting characters, good action, and tense moments. The Prometheus stuff is something that some might complain about, but I find it to be alright. Alien Romulus is the fourth best after the original three.

I agree and I think it's got some replay value as well, at the very least for the gorgeous environments, juicy visuals and action scenes. It's a fun Alien rollercoaster experience while it lasts.

I found it an easy watch. It had basic ideas: escape a planet, escape a space station, defeat monsters. It was much simpler compared to the complexity of the other Alien movies.

I liked how they reversed the de-orbiting sequence from Aliens with a dramatic escape into orbit!

Out of all things Fede didn't imitate from the other Alien films it was a ship or a module (Alien  3) entering an atmosphere, which is practically synonymous with the series at this point. Here, it leaves(!) the atmosphere (twist!) but jokes aside that scene was indeed especially similar to the drop ship sequence in Aliens, with Bjorn here sort of mirroring Hudson's character by being the only one not sitting down and also acting cocky. Loved the scene nonetheless, especially the thrusters igniting, and Navarro's "here comes the hug" (probably referring to the g-forces) was a nice detail.
