Disappointed

Rating: 3/10 (12 September 2012)

The best of this movie is actually, that I started to read the negative reviews here: and a lot of them made me just laugh, because of so many true remarks about this movie. Really, Mr. Scott, I am a big fan of your films. But this one... I don't get it, why the IMDb-rating in total is now at 7,5...
I mean: Its okay to go for the big adventure, and graphics are adequate, but why is this story so flat?, the characters so underdeveloped?, the references to Alien (and alike) so cheap?, the acting mostly so horribly uninspired?, or pretentiously overinspired...
And there sooo many details just no right: F.i., the old guy with so much money and even more hope (way too much make up btw), he just crawls over there to get a bump from the "Founder" and that's it? That would be fine in a comedy, but here? Or the landing on the distant planet: found the place to be right away, after such a journey. Would it not have been much nicer, to create some tension for the viewer by making it a bit more difficult to find this place? Or the pregnant girl: just gets this rough surgery, then staples, to walk/work on? And the whole crew: big mission and then such a bunch of weirdos? Enough, I jump to the end of the movie: seems pretty much like we have to fear part 2. I just hope for the better... maybe we get some answers, if the Founder in the opening scene was a Prometheus, and if forced or however... but please: Mr. Scott, get at least a better script-writer!
