Better than it gets credit for!

Rating: 8/10 (23 May 2017)

Prometheus is by far better than the critics and most reviewers give it credit for! I believe that people didn't like it due to the fact it had no aliens in it. But, I liked this. They needed to gain character development and make a trilogy out of it, so they left the creation of xenomorphs story to later. Prometheus was no Oscar winner, but it is for sure better than most say it is. It set up a beautiful story! David and Elizabeth Shaw were epic characters that could be perfectly developed in the upcoming prequels, the engineers were awesome and you could hope they get explained in the next prequel, the humans were somewhat smart and didn't all die so easily and also the ending was a perfect set up for the next movie! It was so perfect, if you could deal with the fact that there were no aliens, this movie was really good. But guess what happened, the critics and reviewers ruined it and forced Ridley Scott to make the next one more about aliens and completely abandon the idea of the engineers and Shaw's character! In my eyes, the viewers ruined what could've been a great trilogy. I do not blame Ridley Scott, I think he had a great vision and the production companies forced him to change the tone to a more 1979 alien theme to appeal more audiences. But in the end, Prometheus made more money than Alien Covenant and also got a better rating! Should've kept to the original plan, Ridley.
