I had avoided seeing any of the hype surrounding the film on purpose, and therefore enjoyed it for what it was; a cool Sci-fi film that looked amazing and had some really strong characters.filmrrusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08242906606942840491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801517398375131221.post-41647578136930803782012-06-19T12:56:44.196+01:002012-06-19T12:56:44.196+01:00Definitely believe Prometheus is getting a bad rap...Definitely believe Prometheus is getting a bad rap from all the sides. I'm with you - it was a good, solid, sci-fi film. It just wasn't the perfection that so many people were expecting. People need to learn to manage their expectations and not get caught up in the hype.<br /><br />I was quietly hoping it wasn't going to be tied to the Alien franchise, no matter how small a tie in, because I was looking forward to the next great sci-fi film. Stand alone. People don't seem to be making stand alone films anymore!Jainahttp://time-wellspent.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801517398375131221.post-190870456565199982012-06-16T09:09:19.792+01:002012-06-16T09:09:19.792+01:00Cheers Tom.

Vickers' final moments didn't bother me too much, there were other little bits that were silly though; like why did the geologist (was it the geologist) turn up back at the Prometheus and go nuts, what happened to the other guy? Like I say, not enough to spoil the film for me, just a bit stupid.filmrrusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08242906606942840491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801517398375131221.post-17745191127825237202012-06-16T02:01:10.102+01:002012-06-16T02:01:10.102+01:00Great review Russ.
