I enjoyed it a lot overall. Mostly well written, the tension was great, the creature design was pretty cool, and I'm impressed how much they did with so little dialogue. Some scenes definitely took me out of it though; the lead-up to the birth while the alien was stalking her was intense as hell, but then she pops it out in like 2 minutes and there's very little blood. Easiest, fastest, cleanest labor ever. That, and the daughter watching the earpiece screech driving the alien away but not figuring out that the two were related. Fine on its own I guess, but then it made the later scene where she still struggles to put it together until the camera shots very obviously focus on it feel like they either think the audience is too dumb to get it, or she is.
