Prometheus (2012)
Forsaken by a greater concept (the original script/idea that leaked on the net), muddled through some confusing plot-holes, quite a few mistreated side characters and the twisted display of "Alien-God's" pyramid like laboratory & its forbidden creatures, the film still manages to shows off the sparks of Ridley Scott's dark sci-fi magic in its own convoluted way and I enjoyed every bit of it. Needless to say, Rapace & Theron finely fits into their role & Fassbender was bit menacingly creepy but I'm kind of afraid whether this & some of his earlier other jobs may lead to see him as a typecast for more psychotic type roles in future; cause I'd like to see him in more diversifying characters. Idris Elba is a good & cool actor but no offense, the way they portrayed him in the film, he kinda looked more of a truck driver than a captain of a spaceship. Anyway, hope some mystery surrounding humanoid Alien-God's puzzling activity will come to the surface of our understanding in its sequel...
Paradise! Though (as V said) it's most probably a spinoff for a new trilogy set on Alien universe but still I think it left quite open to become the prequel story for Ridley's 1979 masterpiece. So, let's hope best for the
Paradise.
