This is not an alien film, those who fail to see this sure will be disappointed

Rating: 10/10 (11 June 2012)

One of the things I learned these few years from movie going experiences is that I should never have much expectation of what the plot could be or what the movie should be about. Prometheus is not a film about Aliens and it's only remotely related to the alien film that you saw with the big round ship and mother alien. Now if you enjoy sci-fi novels and TV-shows from the old time, you probably will enjoy this film greatly like I did. I was in awe with how many details Prometheus had to offer in the film. None of the other sci-fi movies in recent years had done so well in depicting space-shuttle, high tech and alien planet, making them very much so believable (and fascinating). Avatar was a good film but it felt more towards a fantasy film rather than sci-fi.
And another thing is that a good sci-fi novel/film does not need to explain itself head to toe. Leaving things open and questions unanswered (for the reader/audience to fill and answer) is good strategy in my mind. Some of the negative reviews I read here pretty much all complained about the character behaviors and misclassified mythology. Some of the questions people asked actually are implicitly answered in the film. With a second viewing I am sure the questions might be answered. Rather than say to your face hey this is what's going on, the film makes you think and makes your own Hamlet.
All in all, it's great sci-fi movie in my opinion, the best sci-fi film I have seen in last decade I must say. Give it a try and leave off the ideas of going to see another alien films (don't we have enough of them already?). The movie is called Prometheus and I assure you this will be a unique experiences and will be worth your time especially if you are die-hard sci-fi fan.
