Another epic from Ridley Scott?

Rating: 6/10 (8 June 2012)

So First and foremost to all those wondering .."What the f#*k is Prometheus supposed to mean?".. here's the answer-Prometheus is a titan from Greek mythology and is worshiped by craftsmen.Prometheus stole fire from the god Zeus and gave it to mortals. As punishment for his sins, Zeus had him bound to a rock while an eagle ate his liver, only to have it grow back day after day to be eaten again..
Now to the Review When you know..that the movie is from the man who made Gladiator,Alien and Blade Runner,the expectations are bound to be sky high!NOW does the movie live to its expectations.i'd say a loud NOOOO! The PREQUEL to Alien is set in the year 2089The director tries hard to answer questions unexplained since the birth of humanity: Where do we come from? They made us but who made them? What is our purpose? What happens after we die? an so on..
The movie begins with a prologue set during Earth's prehistory shows a human-like space alien anticipating Jesus Christ as he sacrifices himself for the civilization to come.Cut back to 2089 titular vessel Prometheus is carrying a team of scientists led by Elizabeth Shaw (Noomi Rapace from "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo") and Charlie Holloway (Logan Marshall-Green) to find the roots to our civilization. The expedition is supervised by the Meredith Vickers (Charlize Theron), an official of Weyland Industries which funded the mission, and an android, David 8 (Michael Fassbender). The vessel is captained by the crusty Janek (Idris Elba). Prometheus lands and the scientists begin searching around.They stumble across a giant structure buried in the soil. Could this hold the key to mankind's origins? What happens after that is a by-gone conclusionand therein lies the problem with the film. the egos of the corporation and the scientists clash and all hell breaks loose.Like the other films in the franchise..the scientists get killed one by one..To view the full review http://goo.gl/woiCU
