Prometheus was unexpectedly fresh considering it is a prequel to the Alien franchise. This seems to be the beginning to an entirely new series of movies based in that universe. Overall the movie looks fantastic, the 3D was implemented well, the action was awesome, and the acting was believable and more importantly moving.
Some movie critics have complained that this movie does not properly answer the deep philosophical questions which are raised throughout it, and that it is too blunt in asking those questions. I think that by asking their questions very directly, they made deep philosophical discussion after the movie available even to those who saw it as a summer blockbuster. Even if you just went there for the special effects and the action, you were forced to look at the deeper aspects of the story.
There was also concern that the movie raised many questions, but answered few. That's kind of the point. They did actually give many points of view and potential answers for the questions raised, however those answers were weighed equally and the decision as to what is correct is eventually left to the viewer.
Please ignore the Alien Vs. Predator movies. Those movies and those events never occurred in the Alien universe.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, michael fassbender does an amazing job
Yes, I recommend this movie.
