Questionable opening scenes of a fiery spacecraft engulfed in thousands of degrees flames as it enters the atmosphere to crash into our earthly soil at thousands of mph which should have shattered the craft into little burnt pieces; it's somewhat intact, and someone survives along with, of course, the slime alien. Source of alien is a stretch, and corporate won't pass on its chance to make a killing (pun). Alien has all the right attributes - creepy crawly slimy sucking extendable's; loads of predation razor teeth; a tongue to tickle your palette; and it sort of talks. Is Marvel trying to broaden it's declining superhero market? Plot weak; slime CGI nastiness was a bit of a plot rescue.
