Ridley Scott’s Prometheus is a bold film that sends its
characters on a journey to find truth, only to leave them with as many
questions as they have answers. This is one of the best science fiction
films in modern memory, and it will leave you feeling completely
mesmerized from beginning to end.
Prometheus is a Ridley Scott film, so it’s no surprise that
it looks absolutely incredible. The visuals are dark, haunting, and
truly original. This is the best looking movie I have seen this year,
and it may very well be one of the best looking science fiction films of
all time.
If you’re looking for scares, you will still find a lot of great horror moments in Prometheus, many of which will bring back memories of the original Alien (1979).
One scene in particular, involving an emergency extraction surgery, is
the modern equivalent of the famous 'chest burst' scene that shocked
audiences more than 30 years ago.
