Could have been better

Rating: Null/10 (10 June 2012)

I am disappointed on this one, although this is not a bad film.It is nice visually with an interesting plot to start with but the execution did not deliver. Perhaps the main problem of the film's director and producers was that they did not decide if they wanted a sci-fi film or a space-horror film. The movie tried to balance in between and simply it was not convincing in either front.
As it stands 'Prometheus' lacks the depiction of humanity's progression into the future (with its implications) that e.g. 'Gattaca' delivers us and also lacks the raw terror present in every scene in 'Alien' and 'Aliens'.
I only recommend this movie if you are a fan of Sci-fi and horror movies but do not set your expectations too high.
