goofball

Rating: 7/10 (8 June 2012)

The story itself doesn't follow up and is completely goofed up. Is this supposed to be a prequel....i heard someone said its not a prequel and then it is a prequel..
A very decent film but a failing plot. Actors are a fraction of the other films in the franchise...... The ending where the "superhuman" comes to the pod to kill Noomi rapace, a proto-facehugger shows up....born of Noomi herself with no correlation in form nor appearance just seems ridiculous as far as accuracy is concerned. the logic of how the crew of Nostromo finds this derelict spacecraft with the superhuman with its helmet on with its chest busted and transmitting a WARNING signal into deep space .......doesn't quite fit in.
How does Noomi perform caesarean section on herself in that surgical pod seems amazing but then looking like a million bucks and running and screaming all over the place.........duh!
By indication my guess is that the superhuman and the spacecraft are at least 2000 years old once they conduct a carbon dating, give and take 200 years before Alien-1
Im assuming how did the Nostromo guys not be able to fire this craft up in the firstplace..... This movie doesn't justify that....
In this film The crew were a bunch of dud's with idiocy lurking amidst. With absolute no common sense, everything is left to technology. Very predictable. No amount of human sharpness and ability to scrutinize can ever be compromised ..... this is clearly shown in Alien with Ian Holm's character as an android. It is clearly confused and nobody will ever trust "him". How do the crew of prometheus trust a droid with homosexual tendencies!? How does he spike Logan's drink with that bug. How does Logan-Marshall greene turn into an alcoholic at some edge of the universe? Immaturity at its finest.
In the end after doing everything Shaw and David take off to another place in some other star system to ask these super-humans why they made humans on earth and some other questions.....operating the derelict spacecraft with the help of David ......just seems flamboyantly outrageous.
At the end of it all id like to than Mr. Ridley Scott for resurrecting the franchise. Thank You
