I've been hearing Alien fans are not liking it as they want it to be a direct prequel or not. Not in the middle. Me? I want to see this as a stand alone film and then have no preconceived notions as to what to expect.

A well respected friend said it sucked.
So disappointed w/Prometheus. Great story, just poorly executed. Could not get into the characters either.

How can you argue with such an elegant choice of font?

I enjoyed it, my wife didn't. However, I did think they failed to resolve some of the questions I had, and it seemed they decided to set things up for a sequel rather than have this one stand on its own.

I am a pretty bid fan of Ridley Scott.  I mean, Blade Runner, Gladiator, Matchstick Men, Kingdom of Heaven, Robin Hood, The Pillars of the Earth alone make him in my top 3.  I was impressed with Prometheus.  The Cinematography alone was just outstanding.  Poop. Yes, the characters could have been less cliché but the man female actor (I think she is the Tyrion Lanaster's woman) was most definitely not a Ripple clone.  She was very vulnerable and did what she had to do.

Visually cool. Reminded of the first time I saw Blade Runner. Story can stand on it's own, do not need to be an Alien expert.
