So…. I am not sure if you saw it or not, but let me save you some time….. wow it sucked.
I have really enjoyed Ridley Scott movies in the past, Alien, Blade Runner, and Black Hawk Down are all great movies. Prometheus is not a good movie. Unfortunately it was not thrilling, scary, provocative or even very entertaining. Countless others have already commented on the most baffling aspects of the movie, which was pretty much all of it. The motivations of the characters are a mystery and even more questions arise as the movie progresses and none, that is right none of them get answered. i don’t care what the promotional material says, none of your questions get answered.
I must say however that the build up for the movie was great. I loved the TED talk video Peter Weyland (Guy Pearce) did, and the David the android videos. Unfortunately the movie did not rise to the expectations.
