To be disappointed in general is just a question of expectations. So, what did i expect from prometheus? A masterpiece from the master of science-fiction, Ridley Scott. An exciting science-fiction movie, an intelligent story, some unexpected conclusion. What did i get? Well, it was moderate exciting, the story was not very intelligent IMO, and it had no conclusion at all. Instead, the film rised many new questions and answered just a few. But the answers did not make me feel satisfied. We can discuss all the storylines in depth and find some "answer" to all of them (why fifield as "geologist" was lost in the cave, why shaw was able to do selfabortion with medpod programmed for men only etc), but thats waste of time and boring (to me). Its not the question what can be "answered" AFTER the movie, the question is why the movie ITSELF does not answer? If you like a movie or not is mostly a question of "feelings", and i simply did not feel good about prometheus after seeing it. I felt angry and sad. It was like telling a joke, but hold back the punchline. You think.. "he? What was that?" in most of the scenes. David finds this door and the slime between his fingers. Did this scene bring anything to the story? Does it mean something? So you may feel for prometheus like it is an "intellectual titbit", a nice puzzle, and "all the hints are there... use your brain"- movie. But i dont feel that way. I feel its more an "wannabe pseudo-intellectual trap", and it does not deliver. Maybe a question of taste? I dont really think that prometheus is so "deeply intellectual" as some people think it is, i think it is designed as some kind of "trap" for people who love intelligent science-fiction, but when you are in the trap, you dont feel good, your brain hungers for conclusions, but you never get there. Prometheus tries to be an epic? An action thriller? An horror-movie? But it is not anything of this. Its just some wannabe mystery crap with nice pictures and partial good actors. The robot and shaw were great, the rest of the crew was most time annoying, maybe its not the fault of the actors, but the lame script. I dont feel an urge to see it again and again like i feel for other movies, so i think the movie will be forgotten soon, as it is like an arduous and nerving labyrinth for your brain and does not satisfy by any means. But yeah, there were some nice shots and designs, though it was "too clean" in comparison to "alien & nostromo", which felt much more "da real thing". Prometheus is clean with little "designed dirt" in some scenes, but thats not authentic or believable. But why squids? WHY SQUIDS? Well, i even felt "mission to mars" to be a better movie then prometheus, and "mission to mars" was a load of crap, but it had some conclusion. You know what i mean?
