Great excitement and expectations not met...

Rating: 5/10 (14 June 2012)

The biggest disappointment the cinema has given me this year!
Trying to write a decent review of a film, without just pointing out the obvious flaws, is difficult when talking about Prometheus.
The list begins with:
A plot that is unclear and possibly non existent
Random selection of supporting actors and actresses that are on the screen for just about enough time to catch the first syllable of their name
A script that I could have written, full of clichés and heroic one liners that could have been stolen from a teenage horror movie
Predictable and rather boring action
I could go on...but I think enough would be said with a simple sigh.
There was no need for this film to be shown in 3D either. The action scenes never give the impression you're about to have something thrown out of the cinema screen at you. I presume it was an after thought to compete with titles of a similar grade, possibly Piranha 3DD?
I cant believe this has come from the man who created Alien and Blade Runner.
If you want aliens, gore and visuals- watch Chronicles Of Riddick.
