Prometheus 2D

This one was another highly anticipated Sumer movie... Well, highly anticipated by me for sure. Firstly I'm a big Sci-fi fan! Secondly it was directed by Sir Ridley Scott, director of the greatest movie ever made! ('Bladerunner' in case you needed reminding!?). And lastly it has Alien DNA running through it! What's not to like??
When it kicked off I was smitten! The screen opened up to full widescreen format and Ridley introduced the sweeping panoramic vistas which are his trademark. It's been a longtime since I've seen a more beautiful depiction of space (probably Avatar). I'd heard good reports of Michael Fassbenders performance and he didn't disappoint. His smooth but sinister 'Synthetic' was the standout of the whole movie.
It took a while before it got 'nasty' but it was all the better for it and I enjoyed the slow burn technique.. (another Ridley Scott characteristic)
Overall a very enjoyable couple of hours.
