Alien prequel... Not bad

Rating: 8/10 (3 November 2012)

Prometheus, a space ship that carries a bunch of people to find the secrets of man's origin. Directed by Ridley Scott, beautifully. He has definitely used some of his past experiences to feed off of. With stunning sweeping shots (interior and exterior) that take me back to Blade Runner and Gladiator. It is great to see Ridley back at the helm of the Alien ship. The story is fairly basic. We have a group of people that don't quite get along, travelling a great distance to find the meaning of life. The nice thing here though, is the people that you think are going to be the troublemakers don't always turn out to be so. The Special Effects are excellent and the Visuals are fantastic. This really is a nice Set-up for Alien... I've heard talk of another film but I don't see the need for it. They have established the Weyland Corp. They have set up the downed spaceship that was encountered in Alien. What else do they need to do. Oops, almost forgot. Michael Fassbender. He is very good as David, the android (syntheziod human). Yet again, the synthezoid is always under control of the corporation. which brings up one final question. Can anyone in the future trust a synthezoid?
