“Alien” is my favorite franchise of all time, so naturally, I have a special kind of appreciation for the sci-fi genre. Anything with creatures in space or a mission gone wrong gets a yes from me, and that’s probably why I love “Life” so much. Now, I wouldn’t put this sci-fi thriller on the same level as “Alien” because it certainly doesn’t compare, but that doesn’t mean it’s any less worthy of a watch.
In fact, “Life” is one of my top picks in the genre, and I’m glad it was added to Prime Video at the start of March after leaving Netflix a few months ago. It's nice to see it find a new streaming home instead of floating aimlessly in the vast emptiness. This movie delivers a genuinely intense experience with some of the biggest stars in Hollywood facing an incredibly chilling threat.
