I think it's a bad film on the whole. Brutally offing Newt and Hicks leaves a bad taste in your mouth from the start, they kill off the two most interesting characters back to back at the halfway point, the rotoscoped Alien SFX are worse than Resurrection, and then the third act is a drawn out, poorly paced brown mess of tunnels.
But at the same time, there's just something about it, you know? I really love the aesthetic, the performances are all consistently great right down to the lowest no-name prisoner, and I appreciate what the film tried to do even when it's so clearly been through development hell and barely works as is. It should have been far better than it was.
