@@philb2085 Unless we are simply throwing random adverbs around based on subjective feelings - realism in fiction implies comparison to a known realistic standard, m’kay … I’m simply pointing out that that standard of reference appears to be missing from the equation, rendering it it nearly void of meaning, pending further elaboration.

[@martynstembridge7714]

I think the story had great potential ... But apart from Shaw, the characters and their behaviours were written terribly. The entire crew are either unlikeable idiots, or they don't have enough screen time to register - like the co-pilots.

[@forex_shark6042]

It was a prequal and it was a great movie. It was just kind of abandoned when it should have had a strong second act in Covenant. I think if Covenant delivered Prometheus would be more appreciated.

[@iCANT_BELIEVE_YOU_SAID_THAT]

In today's standard, Prometheus had very good special effects. They used CGI only when needed unlike most sci-fi movies.

[@jacky9575]

This is sooo good. I love how the Engineers have like an almost translucent glowing skin that feels like they were just born, or that they were not afraid to constantly improve themselves, and so their skin looks freshly new; always as if in some kind of state of transition.

Unanswered questions mean that the writer simply has nothing to say. The reason may be writer's block.

[@JustWasted3HoursHere]

We have to remember that even when a movie doesn't quite hit its mark, there are still a HUGE number of people who contributed hours and hours of talented work towards the goal. Ridley Scott set the bar so high with the first "Alien" movie that it would have been nearly impossible for any director to come up with a prequel that made everyone happy.

[@gulfstream7235]

A good script and decent actors might help

[@jimhays2772]

Ridley did a good job this movie re-creating the original vibe and eerie feeling i got from the first movie when they went aboard the alien craft. The strange holograms of the history and the overall history and origin of the spaceship from the original is captured here along with great music and he opens up many new stories and avenues for the place that the xenomorph came from.

[@danielwoods3563]

I really found these military Engineers fascinating, particularly the suit, which seems to have direct continuity with the xenomorph in its blending of the biological and mechanical. They need more air time.

[@josemfersev]

Maybe not an all-time favorite but definitely underrated.

@@4Everlast que tiene de malo? ver una pelicula es una experiencia, como ir al teatro o cualuier otra cosa

[@4Everlast]

@@shinjicito True. True it is, but it's got more problems then I can count. From nonsensical character arcs, horribly anticlimactic answers to BIG questions. Ridley made this movie from notes NOT a script and it shows. Horribly lazy exposition, from Wayland explaining to the crew what they left Earth for!? Too the lazy crowbaring of Jesus and Christian influence with the engineers. The poster AND the intro are a fkn SPOILER for the reveal of the big moments in film they expect you to be surprised by. David behaves as if he's got a fkn split personality for no reason, as if Wayland would allow his mission to be compromised, among other idiotic decisions the characters made. Walking over DEAD aliens(engineers) and asking the 1st one they see wake up, hey, give me immortality is FKN INSANE logic. These engineers wanting to KILL us all, and calling us the violent ones is again, RIDICULOUS logic. And despite all of this and much more I still LOVE and enjoy the film, but the potential it had and never used is beyond tragic.

@@OfLanceTheLonginus funny because the bad thing you said about the movie happens during like 3 minutes. Moreover they are not dumb, they are just regular people with no knowledge about space, safe protocols and militar training. And the worse, Weyland didnt brief them about what was the mission exactly, they were not expecting encountering a new life form. They where chosen based in their academic skills.

[@OfLanceTheLonginus]

@@edumalafaia11 Uh no, there’s more than just those plot holes dude. You need to look past your love for this movie to realize it’s actually quite poorly acted The scientists act like idiots so they became easy kills. See the two that had a map of the area and still got lost, then proceeded to die by a single worm that they acted like he was a puppy for some reason?? See the ENTIRE CREW that let a zombie husk walk right up to the front of the ship without anyone noticing. See the dumb blonde at the end who runs in a straight line and gets smushed. See the pointless cowboy character whose only purpose is to die. And the best part? No Ripley character who survives till the next film: she becomes a corpse test subject for the android. What a terrible terrible series haha
