Any positive reviews?

Rating: 9/10 (17 October 2012)

I found this film to be exactly what I expected it to be. Ridley Scott did what George Lucas could not. He took an established franchise and made a decent prequel. Below is one of the more negative reviews. I think by answering some of the questions posed you will have a better understanding of my opinion of the movie... *Some parts have been edited out to save space.
PROMETHEUS Plot holes AND IRRITATIONS ***SPOILERS***
Q1.) The dreams sequence. David can watch Shaw's dreams. Amazingly this technology also cuts from scene to scene like a movie camera...Please. No one dreams like that.
A1.) So you suppose you comprehend the structure of our dreams then? Do you suppose your brain processes a dream sequence in 2D only? Do you think the human brain is limited to only perceiving what is right in front of it, or is it also possible that it can perceive it's surroundings even in an imaginary setting? Considering for a moment that this is a science fiction film, and the technology exists to view dreams, don't you think our understanding of the brain has expanded by leaps and bounds since our time now?
Q2.) Why was the landing so soft and easy?
A2.) Maybe because it's an incredibly advanced ship from the future?!? What the hell does this question even mean? Have you ever seen a craft like that land before?
Q3.) Why on earth would a scientist remove their helmets in a possibly infected temple? I am just a civilian and even I understand the concept of VIRUS CONTAMINATION ON AN ALIEN FRIGGIN PLANET. They then have the cheek to talk about Shaw's strict quarantine fail-safe procedures...please
A3.) So we're assuming their instruments are only capable of detecting levels of gases such as oxygen, hydrogen, and methane?
Q4.) How did Shaw know the Jockey was heading to Earth to destroy it? Pretty big assumption from a couple of punches thrown.
A4.) Considering they had just discovered that the jockeys were going to Earth to kill the human race before being overrun by their own creations. It's a safe assumption that Earth would be the first destination after 2,000 years in cryo-sleep.
Q5.) How does David know the Space Jockey is heading to kill Shaw on the Medical Bay?
A5.) Considering the recent crash, and David's convenient place perched inside the freakin' cockpit where else would the jockey possibly want to go except to wipe out the rest of the crew of the Prometheus?
Q6.) How does Shaw know her baby will attack the Jockey?
A6.) She doesn't? How about she just saw the damn alien in the room, then was attacked. Hmm do I submit to certain death at the hands of a clearly advanced alien race, or do I chance it by letting the "baby" out of the door RIGHT NEXT TO MY ATTACKER?
Q7.) HUGE ONEHow the hell does Shaw walk after abdominal surgery? If abdominal muscle is cut you can NOT walk, the muscle needs to be sewn backBut no, a few staples and she is good to go
A7.) I'm really surprised at how many times this came up in reviews I read for this movie. Let's see here. We have an advanced human race capable of interstellar travel, dream monitoring, surgery by auto-doc, and your question is why does she have mobility after abdominal surgery... Those staples couldn't possibly be anything more than just plain medical grade staples could they? The machine clearly didn't have time to do anything to help the healing process after stapling her up in less than 3 seconds. Oh and there's no way that our medical science has advanced during the same period where we discovered how to travel such vast distances in just over 2 years. That anesthetic applied locally couldn't possibly have any other medicinal value other than just anesthetic...
Q8.) Why does the space jockey want to kill, kill and killYou'd think an advanced race would be a little civilized?
A8.) I thought they had established during the movie that they had reconsidered their creation of the human race. Did you miss that part? To me this indicated that they considered us an eventual threat to them, or maybe we were just an experiment that had expired. I'm fairly certain that was one of the last lines of the movie as well. When shaw is flying off to find out why they changed their minds.
Q9.) What was the point of Guy Pearce as Weyland? Why was he even there? So he just assumed this temple would contain a fountain of life..right.I guess he 'chose to believe' toof**k me
A9.) No. This one is just stupid. He assumed that the doctors were right, and that maybe he could at least get some answers before his death. The possibility of a regenerative technology clearly was never off the table, but I don't think we're supposed to assume that is his main goal. Doing so seems to miss the entire point of the movie.
Your conclusion: Honestly there are so many more I can't even write them allBut this movie has more plot-holes than the Iraqi Navy
My conclusion: Honestly you just didn't think these through before writing them. Please consider what it is you're typing before hitting the confirm button next time. This movie was better than 99% of the drivel Hollywood is spitting out these days. It's too bad Michael Bay didn't direct or produce this one, otherwise you might actually have something to complain about. Consider Mr. Bay's recent works next time you're criticizing Ridley Scott for "plot holes".
