Went and saw Prometheus.

No spoilers.

I thought it was bad. I really did. So much potential, many clever ideas... horribly implimented. It could have been awesome, but all that potential was just pissed away. None of these 'highly trained professionals' acted realistically, and I never really cared about any of them.

It was like... a bunch of drunken highschool students decided to borrow Daddy's bus, and go to Camp DeadlyStalker. And they invite a couple of hitchhikers, a biker, and the school principal while they're at it.

There were a few good lines, but so much stupid stuff happened for really no other reason than to show off some shiney effects. So I was left wondering ... 'what was the point of that?'

Great sets, great ship designs, some clever moments... fair acting, crap pacing, ham-handed directing & plotting.

It desperately needed more space. More time with silence. A lot less people racing around trying to out-stupid each-other.

I honestly wouldn't reccomend it.
