Creates more questions than it answers

Rating: 5/10 (21 September 2018)

Prometheus is visually spectacular, but, in the end, it creates more questions than it answers. The writers spent so much of their time trying to be deep or philosophical that they forgot to fill in plot holes. I do applaud the filmmakers for choosing practical effects over CGI when possible, though, which helps create a sense of horrifying realism. However, when you start to really think about the story, the loose ends start to show and this movie falls apart.
