Totally Unexpected

Rating: 6/10 (5 March 2018)

This film which I anticipated with eagerness after Prometheus was a bit of a letdown. Why? Because it didn't meet MY expectations. There it is folks, me the moviegoer being disappointed because the writers didn't do what I expected. I was hoping for Dr. Shaw meeting the Engineers and finding out their motivation for wanting to create such a weapon to destroy Earth's inhabitants. But I still got a very entertaining and suspenseful film and was pleasantly surprised about some of the unpredictable twists in the story. The acting was good as expected and Michael Fassbender carried the movie for the most part. However some plot lines were not that difficult to figure out as the movie rolled along. Since I waited for it to come on cable, it didn't cost me a cent. Was it worth watching? Oh yes, but I wouldn't necessarily watch it again.
