if this is the future of mankind, we are doomed

Rating: 5/10 (3 July 2017)

Start with the good news.
Scott is probably the best producer of space travel sets, backdrops, gadgets and paraphernalia. I cannot think of any other producer/director who comes close.
The bad news? Scott appears to have forgotten everything he ever knew about story-telling and dramatic arcs. Worse, he seems to have ignored all the reviews of Prometheus -- all 10,000 of them -- and become even more determined to make these kinds of films. Whether anyone wants to see them or not.
There is not one empathetic character in this story, not one. By the 45 minute mark you will find yourself wishing that the cast and even the production crew all die a horrible death.
