I watched Prometheus on Netflix, today. Basically out of curiosity of all the strong opinions. I tried to have an open mind, but I didn't like it. The CG and makeup took me out of the movie. The characters were all unenjoyable, except for the robot.

Hokey science aside, there wasn't enough action to be an action movie. There wasn't enough suspense to be a thriller or horror. Meh.

It seemed like that to me. And then there's this cache of people with otherwise good taste in film who liked it. Warts and all.

At least we learned some valuable lessons:

Don't play with space snakes
Don't run in the same direction as something rolling at you.
