05:00Another one wrote, Alpha is a cringe-fest that puts the final nail in the coffin of the spy universe.
05:12Overall, Alpha delivered stylish action, strong performances and high production values,
05:19but its story has become the biggest talking point online.
05:23If you're looking for thrilling action and spectacular visuals, the film is likely to entertain.
05:29However, if you expect a gripping screenplay and emotionally powerful storytelling,
05:35Alpha may leave you wanting more.
