Shameful money grab

Rating: 1/10 (14 August 2017)

If you've seen Prometheus or read its reviews, this movie has all its flaws and none of the nuance. Characters are even more unbelievable in their sheer stupidity, especially. Every step of the plot is caused by some degree of it, or is visibly forced and unsatisfying. The answers and interesting paths Prometheus teased us with are unceremonially discarded at the very beginning. It presents inexcusably massive plot holes and inconsistent rules. The ending takes this up to eleven, being an outright infuriating insult to intelligence.
Clearly, Ridley Scott lost his passion a long time ago but knows Alien fans are still nostalgic and hopeful. He thinks they will buy anything he throws at them, even thinly veiled mockery... and apparently he's right.
