wow. for such a high tech background, what a weak story line. very dissapointed.
Disappointed where the story goes. The crew's behaviour and level of their discipline does not match the technology that takes them into the depth of the universe. 2089? it is too early for us to excel to that level. Humans have to still evolve In their consciousness in order to manage such travel in space. Perhaps we can dream about ti after all the human wars are eliminated and then all the
Can't wait! Looks amazing! Big alien fan!

Prometheus, in efficient 3-D, places most of its bets on the wonders that today's visual artists and technicians can work with digital tools. This tale of an interstellar search asks cosmic questions about the meaning of life, but comes up with lame answers in a script that screams attention-deficit disorder. Full Review
