Well to be honest we are fans of the Alien films. We was really dissapointed as we had no moments when we was scared or jump. There are things in it that you knew what was about to happen. I won't go into detail as don't want to put anyone off. I would say considering the writer/director that it had it has let them down. But that is just one review please go and see it and let us know what you thought of it. Brenda xx
Saw it tonight: great special effects. Perhaps a bit too long. I found myself not caring about any of the characters. Cast nondescript bar Michael Fassbender.
I saw Prometheus last weekend and thought it was really good. I think a lot of the reason it has received some indifferent reviews in the press and on the web is that a lot of people just wanted another version of Alien - scary monster picks off crew one by one, all very suspensful with a few scares thrown in for good measure and that is not what Prometheus is about. Try and keep an open mind folks.
I've enjoyed, but never been bowled over by any of the "Alien" films and so wasn't caught up in the hype. Thoroughly enjoyed it for what it was, rather than what I wanted it to be.
