"Nice try" Ridley

Rating: 5/10 (31 March 2013)

I wont write what is bad, what is good, I'll sum up the main parts and make you think is this a good move or bad. It will be pretty simple decision. I was expecting much more from Prometheus - yes, I am disappointed. I haven't watched Ridley Scott's movies lately so I don't know does he suck at writing in past years or what, but I loved his "Alien" so I was like, "I have to watch this". Trailer was pretty good and it, I would say, sums up the all good parts from the movie. Yes, it means there were not so much good scenes in the movie. So this is the whole script: At the beginning some weird guy drinks some potion from which he falls apart and decays in a river. That part is made in bad computer animation for 2012. After that some history researchers find some kind of graphic inside a cave which they recognize as invitation. So yeah, it's 2089. (If I remember) so why won't we just go there. And they did, about 20 of people on board of intergalactic ship called as title of the movie - Prometheus. And they were in the system of the planet in matter of time (about 2 years of travel). So they just land on the planet in the middle of some artificial look alike valley. There were some kind of caves inside full of hazardous creatures inside of vases.
They don't suspect anything, they just find a dead guy who is there 2000 years head separated from the body by a door (they will take the head to the ship). Poor guy. And the robot from the team pick ups one of those vases. They open the door which created a huge storm. Of course 2 guys from the team have been lost already after the first night, they didn't make it to the ship before the storm. Guess what, they were ate by a some kind of reptile creature. Of course, rest of the team arrived at the last second. I was already - "geez man, cut the alien stuff already, can you just make a normal sci-fi movie?" Well I managed to watch the whole movie. The rest goes like this. The undercover robot from the team finds an alive "Creator" (as they call them - apparently they "made" humans.)and takes the essential part of the team to wake him up to ask him questions. They have all been speckled around by the guy when they wake him up, and he just sits in his chair and starts the engine. The whole caves, as some of you would imagine were just a big ship. He heads to Earth to destroy it... One of the passengers managed to get in the rescue capsule and the other one (that told the guys on Prometheus that the "Creator" is heading to destroy Earth) managed to escape from the caves in last bit of a second. So the heroes (they all die) from the Prometheus just fires up the ion propulsion system and takes down the ship. The ships crashes down, and because of its circular shape, it starts to roll and two survivors just start to run in the direction the ships is rolling (lol). And they ran, ran and ran when one of the survivors remember that she could just strafe to the side. And she did, the other one didn't (she dies). So the last survivor and the robot (just the head of the robot, because when they woke up the "Creator" he detached his head from body in rage) were alone on the planet, there were bunch of other ships there so you could expect another part of the movie.
What does this tell you? Bad writing? I think so. There were also a bunch of stupid details in the movie to which one fan of science fiction movies will certainly pay attention. The movie is watchable but if you have something better to watch, watch it. If you have "Alien" somewhere near, better watch it again instead.
