i was lucky enough to watch this film yesterday and here are my feelings about it ( spoiler inside ) : 1) All started well: a fantastic opening scene which lets us imagine an ambitious sci-fi film with beautiful plans and a superb 3D ( very natural , without effects of burst but with a real depth ). Technically this film is superb : 5/5 . Everything comes together from this point of view for a total immersion. 2) But THE problem is the absence of a scenario that holds the road and huge inconsistencies scriptwriting . A simple example: ( spoiler ) We learn that the medipod is configured only for men when Shaw wants to use it while it is installed in the rescue shuttle of Meredith Wickers ... a woman , so that she can use it when needed.......... And this is just one example among dozens of others. scenario consistency : 1/5 I realize that Damon Lindelof has struck again after showing us the full extent of his "talent" as a writer on the TV show : Lost :-) . He returned here and beat down a film that could have been epic . The initial idea of general story was good . I think Lindelof has only the title of writer not the talent , and should rather be guided by the words of our national Jean Gabin ( famous french actor ) : "to make a good film you need three things: a good story, a good story and a good story ". It's terrible to insult the intelligence of an audience with such wanderings scriptwriting and think : "it will pass anyway." My conclusion is simple: I will not see another film with Lindelof as writer ( after Lost and Prometheus ,it's enough , can't stand it anymore ) . Unfortunately I think he was chosen for the forthcoming Star Trek movie project , ouch , ouch, someone please , stop him before it's too late :-) ).

I agree, Lindelof and Spaiths need to be replaced by more veteran writers, I think they are just really are inexperienced for a universe like this.

You can blame Lindelof and Spaiths all you want... but ultimately Ridley Scott bought this bullshit too and said "let's make a movie!"

*Riftard* :je ne l'aurai pas mieux dit, d'accord avec vous cher ami... If only DEXTER could take care of him LOL. But it is also true that Scott accepted to play a part in this masquerade... sadly.

Lindelof thinks that because you make something impossible to comprehend people will love it.

Yeah, like Lost, which was a colossal waste of time.

Lindeldorf is a joke. I watched every season of Lost. The last season was pathetic. He took the audience for complete fools. He should be black listed out of hollywood.

And if there is a sequal to Prometheus. Lundedorf better not be on the wriring staff. I gaurantee that they will be outrage against him from the fans. Hes shiting on himself.
