Prometheus

6/10

I don’t mind plot holes, but you better be moving fast enough that I don’t have time to dwell on them while I’m waiting for the next thing to happen.

For comparison – Alien 9.875/10. Aliens 9/10. Even the one that execrably had Winona Ryder in it gets a 7.5/10. Played by its rules and who doesn’t love some Hedaya?

Click here for spoilers. These are just the ones I thought of sitting in the movie waiting for something to happen that I didn’t already expect.

Just go watch The Avengers again (8/10 with a summer action movie level up +1 bonus). At least Cobie Smulders is way hot. And all the characters get to be intelligent, esp. Stark and Banner. Yeah, I’ll buy your levitating aircraft carrier and humans fighting (literally!) gods, if you keep it moving at Mach 3.5. Consistent within its own universe buys a lot.

Update: This guy does it better than me. Yeah. What he said.

The more I think about it, the more insulted I am. RS can make an image but he’s well and truly out of ideas.
