Stupidity at its best

Rating: 3/10 (12 June 2012)

There seems to be people in the world thinking that by putting nonsense into a movie they will drive people to ask more questions and perhaps see a sequel in order to get answers to those questions.
Well the problem with that theory is that in order for a story to be well delivered, characters must have character and be believable. There is not a single character in Prometheus that is coherent; as a matter of fact there are some characters so unbelievably stupid that it is impossible for anyone to consider that a very rich person would hire them in one of the most important missions of mankind. We can argue that David is the most coherent one and by far the most believable, but still has its minor issues.
Once you become aware of these inconsistencies you simply do not believe in the characters and lose complete faith in the whole movie. In fact you will see the movie as just a money making mechanism. It is a shame, because there was a lot of good material here to create an excellent movie.
The only good thing about the movie is the visual pleasure, but that alone is not enough to consider it an average movie.
