Review of Prometheus (2012) by Peter C — 07 Oct 2016

Prometheus is not Alien or Aliens, BUT, it is quite a good prequel. There is a lot of mythology and it really depends on what you believe as to whether or not you will like this film. Whereas the first two Alien films were pretty straightforward sci-fi thrillers, albeit completely different types of films, Prometheus asks you to believe in some mythology on human creation.

If you can either buy into what Scott is putting on film, or a form of it, or suspend belief during the film I think most sci-fi fans will like it. I did feel it was the set up for the next two prequels which isn't the easiest film to make.

I think Ridley Scott is a genius filmmaker and I highly recommend this film!
