Critic Reviews:
...this prequel – and make no mistake, the events of Prometheus are a precursor to Alien – lacks the atmosphere and vitality of the 1979 film, with proceedings feeling strangely flat and lifeless for long periods.
– IGN
Prometheus is a strongly acted, superbly designed movie, an exciting and at times emetic experience.
While Prometheus delivers a sci-fi experience and story that is nearly unmatched in a modern movie theater experience, its connection to the Alien films is, from time to time, a bit heavy-handed or awkwardly handled - and worst of all, far less compelling than the new storyline unfolding in this film.
