A good start, but I need more.

Rating: 7/10 (22 November 2012)

This film is in no way, shape or form a bad movie, it's high above average, but only for a few reason's. I haven't been this excited to see a movie in a long time, I even went on opening day, that was a bad idea because our seats were in the second row from the front, so I didn't get to enjoy the 3D. Noomi Rapace and Micheal Fassbender were good, Charlize Theron was just there and the rest of the crew is garbage. I found the Charlie character to be annoying. It baffles me how all these characters, especially when they find the pyramid thing with the alien artifacts, you would think they would be excited as hell, but they even get mad about their findings. There are a lot of plot holes and some of the actions they do are ridiculous, at one point they even have an baby alien on board the ship and they don't care or do anything about it. And how a woman can give birth to a squid(face-hugger) is beyond me. But i'm just complaining now so i'll get on with the good things. The visuals are incredible, same with the original score. The sets look great, the ship is fantastic. The atmosphere is great at some points, although not many. The Fifield creature scene was great, very well done. The space jockeys or engineers, whatever, were disappointing at first, but you will get the reasoning behind, so it is acceptable. This film would feel much more complete with a sequel, after all it is going in a different way then the alien franchise, and i'm glad they chose to do so. This film should be experienced with a good sound system, maybe even 3D, but I can't say anything about that.
Recommend to any fan of science-fiction, I have watched this film a few times and I enjoy it more with each watch.
