Critic Review Thread (79% fresh - 7.1 average rating)

[JaaayDee]

313 out of 394 reviews are overall positive.  The film currently holds a 79% fresh score with a 7.1 average rating.  Blogspot and Wordpress reviews are omitted.  Top Critic Reviews (as per RT) are marked in bold. 

Unofficial Consensus:

The film may be asking way more questions than it can handle and, at times, suffers from an incoherent plot and pacing, but Prometheus maintains itself as an amazing sci-fi spectacle, featuring shining performances from Rapace, Theron, and a particularly engrossing play from Fassbender as the android David.

Promotheus just excellent review tomorrow

"l'histoire est excellente y'a 2 ou 3 moments qui peuvent faire peur mais c la réalisation et les acteurs sont geniaux"
The story is excellent there's 2 or 3 moments that can be scary but this is realization and the actors which are great

"Bon... Très partagée à la sortie de #prometheus (suis pas la seule)... La critique ne va pas être simple à écrire :/"
Well ... Very divided on leaving prometheus (I am not the only one) ... The review will not be easy to write

"ben... Visuellement top mais niveau histoire, c'est TRES mal traité "
Well... Top level visually but story is VERY badly treated

(About 3D)
"sympa , bien faite, pas dérangeante mais rien de bien extraordinnaire. Beaucoup de postprod je pense..."
nice, well made, not disturbing but nothing really extraordinary. Many Postprod I think ...

"oui je sais, on est nombreux à être déçus à la sortie.. A part visuellement, y'a pas gd chose à sauver "
We are a lot to be disappointed at the exit .. Besides visually, there's not much to save: (

"Ah bah je pige mieux RT @Alexander_R Je rappelle à tout le monde que Prometheus a été écrit par ceux qui ont écrit Lost... et Alias ^^"
Ah bah I dig it better;) RT @ Alexander_R I remind everyone that Prometheus was written by those who wrote Lost ... and Alias ^^

"Je finirais juste sur ça : j'vais haleter pour écrire la critique de #prometheus ... #TirerLeBonDuMauvais"
I would end up on this: I will gasps to write the Prometheus review... #Pull The Good From the Bad

In reply to : "Vous faites peur avec vos réactions sur Prometheus."
You're scaring us with your feedback on Prometheus.
"crains crains ! Disons que par rapport à toutes les attentes, c'est relativement décevant."
Fear fear! Let's say compared to all expectations, this is rather disappointing.

"long et chiant, avec tous les poncifs de la SF dont un scénario ultra-attendu et aucun effort de crédibilité. Grosse déception"
Long and boring, with all the clichés of the SF including a scenario ultra-expected and no effort of credibility. Big disappointment.

"Prometheus n'est pas seulement dense par son univers mais aussi par les thèmes qu'il aborde."
Prometheus is not only by its dense universe but also by its themes.

"très très bonne et utile à la narration. La 3D gonfle le spectaculaire et garanti paradoxalement plus d'immersion (Dolby 3D)"
very very good and helpful to narration. The 3D increases the spectacular and paradoxically guaranteed more immersion (Dolby 3D)

"Si parmi toutes les nombreuses questions posées par #Prometheus une seule devait être retenue, ce serait : Pourquoi ?"
If among all the many questions raised by Prometheus one should be retained, it would be: Why?

"Prometheus est imparfait car il a vécu trop longtemps dans l'ombre d'Alien, l'empêchant d'être totalement inédit. Mais il fera date !"
Prometheus is flawed because he lived too long in the shadow of Alien, preventing it from being totally original. But landmark!


"J'ai trouvé ça très bien. Imparfait, mais très bien."
I found it very good. Imperfect, but very well.

Finally a great science fiction film, the first for some time (Moon? District 9?)

"Assez surpris par les réactions mitigées sortie de salle. Les gens attendent quoi d'un film comme ça ? Du Haneke ?"
Quite surprised by the mixed reactions out of room. What people expect from a movie like that? Haneke's?

Seems there's a lot of mixed opinions. Some love it and some dislike it.

[Truise]

Very mixed reviews. Don't know what to make of it.

We may have to wait for more reactions.

That's what I got out of it as well. I can't wait to hear what Alien fans have to say about it...

[CanisMajoris]

Ah... FRANCH critics....lol

[mastermoon]

Maybe this movie will get the same reviews as Alien Resurrection.

[Kev Loaf]

so there appears to be

no link at all to Alien or at least a very confusing one

French reviews are mixed. I would not be surprised if this is the general consensus. Hope I'm wrong.

It takes something special, like District 9, to blow peoples minds universally.

Or it could be that a lot of the negative reviewers went in expecting a straight-up Alien prequel like a whole buttload of people have been, and whatever link to Alien is in the movie is more vague than they expected it to be. Who knows? We'll have to wait and read more detailed reviews elaborating on the mixed feelings to be sure.

Yep, i think so too. Bunch of idiots expecting to see a stright up Alien prequel and watching the movie and thinking "WTF, wheres alien ? " Ehh , what can u do. I actually dont give a damn about some non Alien fans opinions.

[boostedlsj]

Maybe they werent shown the last 8 mins or whatever

You can say they were looking too deep in to the movie thinking a hive of xeno's will appear .

[Nightmare Asylum]

I doubt that. This close to release, it would make more sense to just show everything, I think.
