MemberOvomorphMay-30-2012 11:51 AMJust caught the prometheus review on Total Film it was given a 4/5 (promising)
Didnt read full review (CAUTION - could be spoilers in review so read with care) but I will post this final paragraph
"But Scott's movie is flawlessly designed, with the beautiful 3D cinematography contrasting the clean white futurism of Prometheus' interiors with the black corporeal surfaces of the alien catacombs.
It might not pack the unbearable menace or blazing horror of the saga’s first two movies, but it utterly eclipses the last two. It’s exciting, tense and fully impregnated for sequels…"
Sounds f***ing great.

MemberOvomorphMay-30-2012 12:00 PMHey Juxtapose how you doin dude?
I like the fact theyve stated it might not be as scary but is on an more epic and more significant scale (Alien was a very isolated concept after all)

MemberFacehuggerMay-30-2012 12:06 PMTotalFilm's "verdicts" are always pretty good and on target...
[b]Verdict:
You can relax. Prometheus is very good. Not as frightening as Alien, not as thrilling as Aliens, but a 3D sci-fi blockbuster that’s easily the saga’s most spectacular entry.[/b]

MemberOvomorphMay-30-2012 12:39 PM...I am doing just fine Space jockey....just trying to sift threw all these reviews....I saw Alien as an adolescent...a couple of years after its release...i was about 12 or 13....it never scared or shocked much....but i loved the movie...I thought it was extremely cool...even the Alien design and the chest burster scene was just super cool to me...the intensity of the movie was rather over the top and yes that's how i felt ........but not to the point where I covered my face!....i thought it was a masterpiece... scary and exciting and spectacular...
When i first saw Aliens I thought it was way better...now that I am older it's impossible for me to say which movie are better....the first 2 where so different....the second I think was more spectacular but the original had that eerie suspenseful feel that i only started appreciating as I got older.
Think Prometheus might actually be their somewhere in between alien and aliens in terms of the general atmosphere!....plus it's in 3D!!!
