Meh. Not Bad. Not Great.

Rating: 7/10 (11 June 2012)

OK first off. Ridley Scott did a good job. Key phrase. RIDLEY SCOTT DID A GOOD JOB. Cinematography was excellent. Direction was good. The effects are really pretty and the effects are top of the line. The creatures looked awesome. However....
Acting was not top notch. Some acting was really campy whilst most was just mediocre.
However the biggest flaws are the plot holes. If you don't know the Alien storyline. Then your totally lost. If you do know the Alien storyline your not much better off. Actually if you know the alien storyline then there are defiantly WTF moments. Especially since the tech looks way more advanced than 200 hundred years from that time hence time difference between Prometheus and Alien.
Overall its not bad. Defiantly did not live to the hype but worth a movie ticket.
P.S. Save your money do not see in 3D. Its not worth it. The good special effects are better in hi def instead of 3-D
