Plot holes, yet friggin' entertaining

Rating: 9/10 (28 July 2012)

Guys, I was really confused after watching this movie. I knew it was horrible in some of its aspects. Yet... I couldn't tear away my eyes from the screen not for even a sec, it was so exciting, creative, spectacular. I just couldn't help myself, I loved it.
Here's why:
It was an Alien prequel (in a way, I know). I friggin' loved the Alien movies (even Alien3 and Resurrection, guilty pleasure, sue me guys). And this movie was a great follow-up to them. It was new, deep, thoughtful ( not EVERYWHERE) and as I've already said spectacular. The characters were well thought out. And even if the story was filled with plot holes, it was interesting, and it was exploring new yet ancient themes. Who are we? Why are we here? (BTW I felt like I was watching a sci-fi movie based on the writings of Erich von Däniken mixed with Alien)
Okay, I have to confess and admit it. I'm a girl. And Michael Fassbender is more attractive than a bag of rocks. (Come on! Some of the dudes I know think this way about female actors) And his performance as David... EPIC. Oscar worthy. Loved it. He played so much better than the others in this movie. His character made the film. In my opinion of course. It was very well thought out. David was very far from being a human, yet I wanted to like him. He was like a cast-away among the crew members, everybody hated him. Oh, and I was so relived when it turned out he didn't actually die, just lost his gorgeous body (giggle, giggle, I've just seen Shame)
The special effects very mind-blowing, huge, outstanding. If you've seen the movie, you know it. If you haven't you must see it.
The design of the new aliens, or alien ancestors (well the monsters') was pretty darn good. Made me feel nostalgic.
So that's what works in this film. And for its luck, what works, that works really well.
BUT even I can't overlook those plot holes which are certainly there. So let's see them (well the important ones):

Why did David poison Holloway with the alien egg (or whatever that tiny black thing was)? Why on earth did he do that? It occurred to me that Daddy Weyland told him to do so. But why would Daddy Weyland want to poison his crew members?

Not so important... BUT why was the fire flaming so much when Vickers killed Holloway if the stated that there was less oxygen in the planets atmosphere than in Earth's?

Why did the white faced ancestors wanted to kill humanity? It was stated that they wanted to create something new and in order to that they have to destroy. But... they'd already created US...

Why did Vickers go with them? She could've stayed home and be the leader of the company. Did she just want to see her father die so bad?

Why didn't Shaw's alien baby die? I mean, sure it was strong and everything, but...

Why took off the helmets? Guys, have you ever heard of viruses? bacterias? Oh, whatever.

Oh those guys who died first, they were idiots. Not a plot whole, but I just wonder how could they stay alive for such long time.

Why did the head of the ancestor explode? Seriously, why? (BTW it looked so funny...)

Why did the ancestor guy tear off David's head? Did the yelling and all go on his nerves? Did he get too annoyed by Shaw's whining and couldn't take the pressure anymore?

How could David move his body after he lost it? Clearly his body and his head were connected by wires... And those wires torn...

And why did Shaw have to let down David's body? He just could've jump down. he could move his body, that was clear (at least his arms, oh gosh that looked so funny)

How could Elizabeth move after her belly surgery? She could've used very strong drugs, I guess.

When the Prometheus arrived to the planet they just started to explore it. Why? Why didn't they just send there a robotic drone or a satellite before they arrived there? Would've been simple.

And by the there some things that just annoyed me greatly, for example:

Why was Vickers such an a..hole? She acted like a poisoned brat throughout the whole movie. For no reason than being a poisoned brat.

At a certain point of the movie almost the whole crew starts to have sex with each other. Vickers and the captain. Shaw and Holloway. Guys, why so irresponsible?

The map thing. That hologram. Just copied from Avatar. Just like that. But we can overlook that I guess.

Okay, I guess there were many more plot holes there... But the atmosphere of the whole flick, the characters, the strange subject of the movie, it was just so entertaining and good I just couldn't help it. I love this. Hell I'm gonna own it. I have no idea how can Ridley Scott make a movie which is so bad, so full of plot holes, feel so good to watch over and over. And really Michael Fassbender as David just made the film.
