The need of a sequel is disappointing

Rating: 8/10 (7 June 2012)

I believe "Prometheus" has two different points of view. The view of sci-fi thriller fan and the view of an "Alien" and "Aliens" fan. If you watch "Prometheus" wanting to see a sci-fi thriller I believe you'll like it a lot. It hits all the points. Despite some small flaws, and despite some small details that weren't answered, maybe because 2 hours of film wasn't enough, you have a great movie. The film's visually beautiful and the dark scenes are excellent, the soundtrack corresponds with the density and intensity of the scenes and the script is great, get's you thinking about evolution and Darwin's statements. Noomi Rapace and Michael Fassbender are enormous and have huge interpretations, especially Fassbender, who once again delivers a very realistic performance. So, OK, you get satisfied with "Prometheus", you got script, actors, sound, suspense...all that you want. But, if you watch "Prometheus" wanting to get answers for "Alien" it will annoy you that you'll have to wait for a sequel, because this film does answer some things about "Alien" but delivers many other questions, and by the time of the movie that you'll want your answers it... ends! And so you'll have to keep your questions for a couple years and so that is somehow sad... So, I give an 8/10 to "Prometheus" because it's a great movie, the best sci-fi I've seen in years, but the end of the film by leaving so many questions unanswered is disappointing.
