Didn't do their research

Rating: 6/10 (8 March 2013)

The movie was OK, but directors didn't bother doing some research. I couldn't believe that a starship after traveling for 2 years in the space actually landed on the planet. It would be just to big to do so. Besides, why risk the whole 2 year expedition, landing on the unknown planet? Common sense dictates sending probes, robots to check it first. Then maybe a shuttle with few people to check it out. Leave the ship in orbit! But then they would not be able to crash the whole ship into the alien ship! Another thing was how stupid and irresponsible the crew was. And one fa paux was when the alien ship got run over the starship and crushed back into the planet you could see fires burning. It seems normal, however the crew couldn't be outside without their suits, yet everybody knows that you need oxygen to burn anything. Let's hope they get their act together for the part 2.
