it "improved."
This film is complex enough, it has enough talented actors, that it rewards careful, multiple exposures.
The story becomes less of a distraction and I concentrate more on the pure story telling, which I find excellent: believable in the interesting world the writers created.
Some sneaky little Scott overtures to Kubrick, too: the axe-wielding scene w/the female principal, near the end; the androids "Hal-like" moments; the "Dr. Strangelove" scene wherein the pilot ship is sent into the WMD-bearing one.
With this summer such a bust for films, I'm glad to report this one is definitely worth a second or third glance.
I watched it on Vudu and I'm pleased to announce the HDX is spectacular (Netflix offers it not on download…..).

- It creates "Aliens." nt - tinear 08:25:57 08/03/14 (2)
- The black goo does NOT create aliens. Facehugger + human creates aliens. Prometheus 101. - geoffkait 07:03:45 08/04/14 (0)
- Aliens are an unfortunate byproduct. It also creates humans (see Poster). Nt - geoffkait 13:40:25 08/03/14 (0)
- What was the lifeform the ship' captain saw stalking the two dudes inside the giant hanger? Nt - geoffkait 03:47:29 08/01/14 (8)
- Maybe some of them wigglers? Or maybe it was a "glitch?" nt - tinear 07:20:14 08/01/14 (7)
- It was a single red dot and the captain said "life-form" (singular). Doesn't make sense it was a glitch. Nt - geoffkait 09:00:59 08/01/14 (6)
- Cap'n. also said it was a glitch. "Life form" could be plural, i.e. "They were a life-form." nt - tinear 15:51:30 08/01/14 (5)
- You know what an unreliable narrarator is, right? That's what the entire crew is, including the Captain. - geoffkait 17:02:59 08/01/14 (4)
- You think he was bringing concentrated Coke in the capsules? nt - tinear 08:26:58 08/03/14 (3)
- If they wanted to kill us they could have used mustard gas. It's much safer. Nt - geoffkait 09:11:51 08/03/14 (2)
