Sign In. Prometheus I Hide Spoilers. Now before you start yelling at me, please hear me out. I've often wondered why so many people who dislike the film claim to do so on the grounds of it not giving any answers, when it so clearly does: they may not be spelled out in detail, but in broad strokes, they are nearly all there in the title. In Greek mythology, Prometheus was the titan who created or "engineered" mankind. In the ancient tale, Zeus was so enraged by Prometheus' betrayal - and mankind's greatest gain in knowledge - that he subsequently wanted to wipe Prometheus' creation from the face of the earth. His elaborate plan on how to achieve that goal involved sending a certain box to the humans - the infamous Pandora's Box - which, once opened, would unleash hell upon humankind. So consequently, for reasons Zeus would probably understand, the engineers end up declaring humankind as a failed experiment that needs to be terminated: and what better way to do that than with bio-weapons sent to Earth that function like little "Pandora's boxes"? The gods in Greek mythology have all the character traits of ordinary people: they fight, they lust, they hate - and they make mistakes. They create bio-weapons they don't really know how to control: and they eff up big time before they get to destroy the humans, and they get wiped out by their own weapons. Their technology may be very advanced, but they haven't exactly reached a state of wisdom and transcendence, and the big question doctors Shaw and Holloway want to ask them will not get a satisfying answer for that very reason.

Where do we come from? Where are we going? Are we alone in the universe? These are some of the most fundamental questions that human beings have asked themselves from time immemorial. Science, to the best of its ability, have been trying to explain the beginning of everything but there are certain pieces to the puzzle, that remain unsolved. According to the director Ridley Scott, the fans of the original film were still not satisfied. Wherever he went, the questions kept following him — Who were these aliens? Who created them? How they got into that spaceship?

It has the most laughable aging make-up I've seen in 50 years. I can forgive the unanswered questions about the motives and biology of the aliens in Prometheus. Create a list ». A medical scan reveals that Shaw, despite being sterile, is pregnant. To go up and prod at it with their hands. The story does suffer from too many concepts not explored enough, some leaden pacing and at times a lack of cohesiveness.

Prometheus is a science fiction horror film co-produced and directed by Ridley Scott , with the screenplay co-written by Jon Spaihts and Damon Lindelof. It is the fifth installment in the Alien franchise.

Earth has been visited by aliens who created us, and leave a calling card. But the writing is inept and insulting, forcing characters to do ridiculous actions for the sake of the plot. For some reason, the beings who created us also want to kill us - and it seems to involve incredibly elaborate genetic engineering that also happened to kill most of them in their remote "lab facility". Automated Voice Czech voice Sonam Dugdak But they are mostly pushed aside to focus on the stupid scientist characters. Grade: B. I saw this film when it was released in the cinemas many years ago and don't know how I might see it again. I can't believe such negative opinion and vitriol for this film!

With a little more thought, Prometheus could have addressed the plot holes I and others have noted, and as a result been a tighter film with more tension and surprises. Watch Full Version.
