well referring to his review I wonder why people expects that a film will explain everything about everything you think you see or question ourselves in it.....
what a person thinks needs to be "explained" in a movie it might been explained already, but that person didn´t pick it up...Can be right?

We might get something slightly different when we see it for ourselves and I can't wait for those discussions. I remember I had to see The Matrix twice in the theater before I truley knew what was going on. :

well... seems quite good, even if character-wise somewhat laking [as stated by the man].

@Brett
There was a still released, that showed Vickers on the ground with her arms up, in a posture of apparently attempting to shield/protect herself. The camera is poised above her as if it's a POV shot, just before she gets squashed by something.....presumably, the rolling juggernaut.

How does a guy from Denmark, who gives a review of 8 out of 10 to the movie Surrogates, get to see prometheus before us? What a bummer.

Hoping this is not another Lindeloff / LOST mess, but the reviewer's comment that another sequel is needed to explain things does not bode well.

I'm not happy that another sequel is needed to explain things, but I am happy for 2 more hours of Sir Ridley Scotts awesome vision.
May 29, 2012
I am intrigued by what Ridley Scott meant when he said This movie is about who made us, who made them.. and he even said on some clip it's about what happens when we die and after. I think those are too many questions to answer in one movie!

what shortcomings? please don't answer if you feel inclined to include spoilers.....

Charlize mentioned in L'Ecran Fantastique something interesting about the third act where Vickers is lying on the ground outside.. then i remember seeing a picture where she was lying and the camera was directly over her. hmmm..

That is a very optimistic review and very spoiler-free in my opinion....The reviewer also backs up their opinions of praise as well as shortcomings. He gave it a 9/10.

@Brett Exactly, he says characters are not as strong as in the first two Alien movies, but he believes a future director's cut might solve that issue. However, he praises Fassbender and uses the term "classic". The review doesn't contain real spoilers.

SPOILER-FREE???? sounds good to me

I have the impression the newer generations are going to have a blast with the movie. Probably that's what Scott/Lindeloff wanted. I am saying this because of the young guy's pre-screening review on youtube. He looks and sounds really mystified by the film, like he will be losing sleep over it.
