I personally enjoyed Prometheus a great deal. We're looking for too much sometimes and maybe we set our standards too high. There is a great deal of thought that goes into even the most shitty movies, and Prometheus, in my humble opinion, gets a 10 just due to the fact that I had fun while watching it with my little brother. I could knit all the pieces of the movie together and the side stories came together well. What more can I ask of Ridley Scott?
I also wait in anticipation for the sequel. |

I don't quite get how we go from Ebert praising Alien as a smart, slow paced sci-fi movie, calling back to the golden age of written scifi, with the idea that the general public thinks of it as a mindless action film.

Really. Has ANY movie since Aliens been able to match Sigourney Weaver playing Ripley as a heroic empowered heroine in an action film? I hate modern female action heroines. And in a way, I don't think Ridley Scott has a good a grasp of them as James Cameron does.
