Watched this yesterday and really found the entire thing mind-boggling.
This movie opens up so many more questions, it does exactly what a Prequel should do. I am already awaiting the sequels in hope of having more questions answered.
Indeed, not a true horror movie like the original Alien, but more a pure science fiction movie, with really fascinating, great questions being brought to our very existance. Are we created by another species? Why? Who created them? Why did they want to destroy us?
This movie has really started some heated debates and discussions and I think this is exactly what Ridley Scott wanted. I don't care much about the characters, most were cannon fodder anyways. Fassbender really stood out as a great actor as the android David and Noomi played a very convincing role. The med-pod scene was just fantastic.
Either way, this is a big one and I hope they'll prove it by giving more answers AND questions in the sequels!
