The best science fiction movie in years. "Prometheus" is a science fiction movie that doesn't play it as cute. The film plays it as tough and smart. If you want cute, go see "Men in Black 3." Although it may be a prequel, it doesn't remind me of the movie "Alien." This movie reminds me of "2001: A Space Odyssey." Charlize Theron and Michael Fassbender lead a strong cast. But the real star of the movie is Noomi Rapace who played a tough woman's role very well. I also like Fassbender's humanlike character as he molded his character after the character in "Lawrence of Arabia." A group of explorers went to a planet which they discover something shocking. This is Director Ridley Scott's best work as director. I like this movie very much. The best summer movie so far.

I feel like I ordered an entree and I got an appetizer. This was a good movie, but not the great movie I was hoping for.

The cast was adequate with Michael Fastbender and Charlize Theron providing convincing roles. The movie started off very intriguing and then just developed into a common horror movie that takes place in space.

The special effects were outstanding and the story was well thought out. It just fell apart about halfway through. It just got silly then tried to get serious again. It had it's merit but it was just good in my opinion.
