I was mislead...

Rating: 7/10 (13 July 2012)

I thought this film was about the concept that humans were a GMO developed by a superior alien species. It sort of is but didn't really address that issue. All the while the film was running I kept thinking this is just a rehash of all the once original Alien devices.
Leaving the theatre my son informed me that it was actually a prequel to Aliens. Love Aliens as I did, I am tired of all of that genre and this film is really just a rehash.
Michael Fassbinder was great; as was Charleze Theron.As usual there were the "usual suspect" character types. The cocky black pilot... the angry menacing crew member...the damsel in distress... and robots. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Stunning visuals.
