WARNING! MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!
Since the first time I saw that a movie called PROMETHEUS, a prequel of ALIEN, my favorite movie and franchise of all time since the age of 11, was to be made by a great great director such as Ridley Scott I was looking forward to watching the movie with religious yearning!!
And the time finally came...The movie begins and I see the movie title appear on the screen with the same fashion (although quite faster and not as profoundly..) as the original ALIEN... Goosebumps..."Maaan, I hope I am in for the ride of my life!", I thought to myself.... OOOHHH MY GOD WHAT A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!!!!!!! (Honestly, the speed that Prometheus was revealed came as kind of a warning to me that something wouldn't be quite right about this movie.....) and then came the music....
Almost every aspect of the movie was the closest thing to crap. My personal biggest disappointment was the music... never have I heard a worst score in my life especially for a movie that heavily depends on the music to contribute to the weary atmosphere.... and just remember the EXQUISITE scores of Jerry Goldsmith for ALIEN, James Horner for ALIENS, Elliot Goldenthal For ALIEN 3.... oohhh I shiver only thinking about it.... even John Frizzell's music on ALIEN Resurrection was great comparing to this disaster!
Second disappointment, the story line..... a story line that was as we say in my country: A total and utter AHTARMAS!!! Fellow Greeks will understand and agree, I believe. A prequel of Alien, but not really...an independent story, but not really.... as you try to walk through the story line, there are so many holes in every footstep you take, that you cannot make any sense characters that were supposed to be scientists but not really interested in the science they came up across... everything a bit of something but not really anything... Scott borrowed from all the previous Alien movies and ended up with absolutely nothing!! The actors had nothing to work with... nothing... even Michael Fassbender's character, the most interesting one acting-wise, was so clinical and sterilized to the point of having no point!
And last but not least...the actual design of the aliens..... If Alien Resurrection was stigmatized cause of the silly hybrid, then Prometheus spits on all alien designs and takes its rightful place, both in design, presentation and material, as the VERY WORST EVER!!!!!!!
I will close my notes with Ash's final words to "aspiring" Prometheus as compared to ALIEN:
" You still don't understand what you're dealing with, do you? The perfect organism. Its structural perfection is matched only by its hostility. I admire its purity. A survivor  unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality. I can't lie to you about your chances, but  you have my sympathies. (he smiles)"
