I'm an Alien and Ridley Scott fanboy. I gave Prometheus a 7.5. It looked great. The Giger vibes were back. It explained all the questions about xenomorphs and space jockeys. It was entertaining and enjoyable. However, there were problems with character development. The pilot and his co pilots really needed more screen time. I didn't buy their decisions in the end, and frankly, didn't really care. I found myself questioning David's motivations vs. Theron, her father and the corporation. The score was just awful. It really took away from mood of the film. This was the biggest disappointment for me. Scott's films are driven by their score. He's usually a master at setting tone through sound.
As a fan of Alien lore, it was satisfying, yet hollow.
It answered a lot, but certainly not all. I still liked it a lot, though. Took me until almost the very end to realize that the old guy was Guy Pearce.
