All style no substance sounds familiar

MemberOvomorphJune 10, 2012943 Views7 RepliesAll style no substance reviews seem to be haunting another classic Ridley Scott film. That was the general feeling amongst critics and some fans upon the release of both Alien and Blade Runner as well as other Scott films which were later considered great films. It's obvious the same thing is happening here with Prometheus.
I started this thread because another member and I were having a discussion thru pm where he brought up many thoughts on the deeper subtexts in the film which he states are quite obvious and rightly so in some cases. There is so much more to this film that meets the eye. THAT is the problem. Just like Alien and Blade Runner, the film is SO BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL that people don't notice the depth of the film.
Hopefully, my friend as well as others will come and post theirt ideas on the complexity of the film here. This thread is not here to try and change anyone's mind. However, I think it will open the eyes of lovers of the film wider so that they aren't blinded by the visuals of the film like so many seem to be.
Also, I know people who don't like the film will come in here and express their opinion. That is their right. But please don't let this discourage those of you who loved the film from posting. Ignore the one's who aren't saying anything and have a healthy debate with the ones who are.
Thoughts?
