Public expectations remain high for Alien: Romulus, but reviews suggest that the film doesn't seem all that original.

Alien: Romulus is about to hit theaters, and people are pretty excited. Sci-Fi fans have been eagerly awaiting this one, not just because it's another entry in the classic franchise, but because it promises to be an outstanding film that lives up to the hype, which has sort of faded over the years.

The film was initially given an excellent rating by critics, but now, just before its release, it has been downgraded, which has caught people's attention. The situation is still quite unclear as points are still coming in. Even so, it could be a sign of dialing back those super-high expectations.

Anticipation for Alien: Romulus has been high ever since the film was announced. It debuted with a 97% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which really got people talking online, especially among fans.
