So I saw Prometheus this weekend, and I thought it was great. Others have not thought the same. And now I am trying to figure out why.
SPOILERS! (Click to view)
The beginning your given some history on the new heroine of the film, then your introduced to the new villain of the film. We are then told about the reason for the adventure. Introduced to 4 new creatures. And told about how the trip was funded. We then don't know if the villain is dead, told that the heroin has another chance to get off the planet and the movie ends. I don't know what else people are looking for.
The major complaint is there's no plot. I can't see how they think that at all, were they asleep for the first 15 minutes of the movie? Granted it's a 2 hour flick with not a lot of store line but it's a sci-fi action horror. How much story do you want? You got everything you needed there plus a bit of action thrown in the middle.
I will say this though I do not like the new Alien creature, it looks more like a velociraptor than the original alien but I guess that's where the future films are going to lead us.
