I waited so long to be thoroughly disappointed.

Rating: 4/10 (3 June 2012)

SPOILER ALERT!! I TALK ABOUT THE MOVIE!!!!! The only reason I'm giving this movie a 4 is because the visuals were beautiful. The movie was a delight to see in 3D. Also, I really liked the engineers. This is where all credit stops for me.
Before people cry and say that I'm not a real Sci-Fi fan, I can assure you I am a dedicated Sci-Fi fan and I appreciate films that need to be appreciated. This movie started well but soon dipped into the laughable, predictable and the cliché.
I will talk about the characters because throughout the entire film they were annoying and utterly pointless. There was no connection between the characters themselves and absolutely no development. The actions that they took during the film was difficult to comprehend. When 2 of the idiots meet a white snake thing that has just risen out of some black goo, rather than run away, which the entire worlds population would do, they decide to treat it like a fluffy, timid bunny rabbit. Strange, seeing as this is the first time they have met a life-form on a distant, strange planet. Obviously they get killed. Good. I actually enjoyed it. The android made strange decisions throughout the film which annoyed me enormously and again, didn't connect with any characters.
When a character was killed, nobody seemed to care or have any interest. Everyone was chilled about it. Rapace, who played the girl who had her stomach ripped open in an automatic operating table, a large squid thing removed from the stomach then just stapled together, seemed to be able to carry on moving and run around/jump/get into a suit. At one point the captain saw her holding her stomach in agony and completely dismissed it. No questions about it. Just carried on.
I could go on. I will. A little bit. Charlize Theron was pointless. The most cringe worthy scene involved her speaking to the old man and just before walking out saying, "ok.........Father". Useless, Pathetic, laughable.
Skip forward, Rapace tells captain to crash ship and kill himself. 2 pilots join him. They crash and kill themselves. Didn't realise suicide was so easy. Again, just couldn't understand the logic.
Thats it, I'm done. It was tripe. I waited for it. I wasn't asking questions about how it interacts with Alien. I watched it for what it was and it was tripe.
