Not perfect but enjoyable...

Prometheus is probably one of those movies that you would appreciate more after seeing it for a second time. There's a lot to put together and you may miss something the first time you see it. That being said, it's definitely not perfect. Many viewers have complained that not enough questions are answered and there are too many plot holes. I find this forgivable because I think that "being TOLD" all of the answers takes away a sense of mystery. There is a MYSTERY in Prometheus that the characters are trying to solve. If they don't solve everything, how are they supposed to tell us everything about something they don't find answers for? I rather enjoyed piecing together bits of the puzzle by myself.
Prometheus definitely LOOKED fantastic. The set designs were amazing. I wish that there was just a little bit more of a foreboding atmosphere like what Scott created in the original Alien. The acting from the main characters (especially Fassbender)was great, but there were a lot of other characters that you really didn't get to learn/care about especially when they died. I wasn't too thrilled with the ending and thought it was a bit anti-climatic; left a little too open for my taste.
Prometheus was fun to watch despite its flaws. It definitely was NOT the worst movie associated with the Alien franchise, but definitely not the best.
