*spoiler*


People go to a planet which should have "aliens".
The planet was a secret facility where they created some kind of monster/virus
Everything went bad and everyone died.
They found a real human-like "alien".
Everything went bad and they crash the ship that's trying to escape.

*spoiler*

I honestly thought the movie would be better but I didn't think is was a good movie. It was avarege but they could have done more with it.

It was a prequel to Alien and it was supposed to wrap up some of the mysteries in the Alien films. That's possibly why you didn't understand it too much?

The "creator" aliens reminded me of what I could look like if I worked out more. Throughout the entire movie, that's mainly what I was thinking about. I didn't care much for any of the main characters.

Not even right at the end when the smaller alien creature bursts out of the Engineer's chest? I thought that alien resembled the one from Alien.

The protagonist was boring, but I found the captain to be very entertaining, and David had a few good lines here and there. I wish Dr Shaw had died and everyone else had survived rather than the other way around.

And what mysteries would that be?

An argument I hear all the time for why Prometheus is a prequel to alien is that it explains where the Aliens came from...then I tell those people to watch Aliens vs. Predators

There is no reason to go out of your way to see this movie. It didn't bring anything new to the sci-fi table.

I watched it a few nights ago, did not care for it, just watch Alien. As Ernie15 put it,

It didn't bring anything new to the sci-fi table.
