Flawed and not gem

Rating: 3/10 (9 June 2012)

When a movie starts with errors so obvious even to a non-scientist like me (3% CO2 concentration will not kill you in 3 minutes, 10^14 km is firmly within Milky Way and not in another "galactic system", whatever the hell that means etc.) that doesn't bode well for the rest.
The visual art would be at home for a medieval culture, not advanced intelligence capable of engineering new intelligent life, the surroundings feel artificial and non-functional (unlike, say, beautifully sculpted world of Avatar, that fits and breathes together so naturally, or confined spaces of John Carpenter's The Thing that serve the story so well), the team for a "multi trillion" mission never met, let alone trained together before they have already arrived at the destination, the events seem to take place in a vacuum wile the rest of the team is magically not noticing what's going on, action scenes that make no basic geometrical sense etc, etc... I'm not even going to go into religious mumbo-jumbo and how evolution really works.
I laughed couple of times, even though this was supposed to be some kind of a horror.
And most of all, the motivations of the characters are opaque. They do things that seem without reason or motivation and fail to connect with the audience on either logical or emotional level.
I'm sorry to say, this is a big disappointment from such a renowned director as Ridley Scott.
3/10 for the nice CGI
