Beautiful but disappointing

Rating: 6/10 (8 June 2012)

Notes from a french spectator...
Positive points:
01.The aesthetic and graphic universe 02.The still oppressive atmosphere 03.La 3D (rather convincing on a large part of the film) 04.The sets(natural or artificial, those of Giger as the others) 05.The costumes 06.Les special effects 07.The Music 08.the directing as a whole 09.David, the most complete and the most successful character 10.The thematic of films on genetics and the origins of humanity 11.A little humour (not enough I found)
The negative points :
01.The script, with plenty of missing explanations for the actions of the characters 02.The character of Meredith Vickers which lack many things 03.The characters of Elisabeth, Holloway and the pilot, not enough complete. 04.The link with with the "Alien" saga, in the second hour of the film, unfortunately forced and accelerated 05.Le makeup of the character of Guy Pearce, not credible at all!
In conclusion :
Despite the fact of having been seduced by a visually beautiful and innovative work, I have the impression to set fact have by a marketing plan that wanted, that reactivate a saga known to the universe by. Intentions, however, were laudable, yet it had that the script be resulted, complete and really original. James Cameron must have laughs
