Finally saw it. Really liked it. Only thing that slightly annoyed me was how the girl was moving around fairly easily after having her stomach cut open and stapled back together. Cool movie. Would have liked just a slightly bit more of explanation. Reminded me of 2001 A Space Odyssey.

glad to see someone else thought that also

Saw this Monday night and really enjoyed it. Unlike a lot of movies that are more action/gore/hollywood cheese than substance, this one had a much more intriguing story line. I do kinda wish they had shown a little more skin on ol' Charlize. That bitch is fine.

Google image her for Reindeer games. You get to see a lot more skin.

ive seen this movie probably 10x on there and bought the collectors bluray last week. let a friend borrow it and so far he's liked the first 30 minutes of it; he stopped it because it was late when he started watching it.

My favorite part was the mid air collision.

I saw it and liked it. I wish they had done a little more to link it directly with Alien, I can't think of real good reasons why they didn't.

I also wanted to be stuck in the lifeboat with Ms. Vickers for a few years like Astronaut Jones:

VICKERS: "Oh looks like the hyper sleep compartments don't work, we got lots of time to kill to get back to earth...."

ME: "Bitch why don't I rip off that jump suit and slap that fat ass?..."

I read an interview where Ridley was asked: Did the Engineers want to destroy the human race because of the crucifixion of one of their own?

This movie is heavily influenced by evolution over religion. He said that he and his writers had thought about going that route but left it open to the audience. Like the part where they say the carcass was over 2000 years old hinting that they were on their way to earth to destroy the humans for crucifying the engineer.

I enjoyed it. I love the fact that you leave the movie with questions instead of answers.

I saw it last night as well. Very good movie, I didnt like the sountrack it reminded me of the Star Trek movie soundtrack, but I wasnt there for that. It will be going in my collection of Blu-Rays.
I doubt that ANY movie will trump Alien or Aliens imo...

Saw it last night in 3-D. This movie is filled very heavily with nods to Alien. The whole aspect of evolution being the cause of our creation really draws away from the Alien franchise. Ridley has said that he would explore a whole new tangent with this movie. I like that it wasnt all in your face or preachy. In the end even Shaw regains her faith even with knowing they were genetic creations. There were a few things with the storyline that left unanswered questions. Did the engineers on that ship contain the genetic material for the xenomorph? In the tomb they showed the murial on the wall which was the life cycle of the xenomorph. What was the green egg shaped crystal?? Why didn't the infected crew turn into xenomorph like beings like the worms did?? Why is the xenomorph at the end different than what were used to seeing? It looks just like the one that was shown on the murals. This might be because of their genetic make-up and the ones in Alien evolved over time; once again showing that this movie was not an Alien prequel.The whole ordeal on the planet simply gives us an insight at what could have possibly happened on the other planet.

This movie is very dark and gruesome. I was squeamish during the c section scene. It reminded me of the scene with Kane and the chestburster. It was a wtf moment. I liked the cinematography in this film. When I watched it in imax it just blew me away. The music was spot on throughout. All the scenes with David walking around the ship reminded me of 2001: A space Odyssey. It had that feeling of all those great sci-fi movies from the late 70's-80's. It wasn't full on in your face action. It was well balanced from beginning to end. I can see why some people wouldn't like it at all. Aferall, this movie was never about Alien. The way it ended clearly leaves it open for a sequel. I can't wait to see where they go from here. I'm definitley going to put this in my movie collection.

agreed, I'll buy this one.
