Ridley Scott's PrometheusWas annoyed with myself that I didn't get to see this on the cinema big screen last summer, having gone out of my way to avoid reviews and comments - aside from the intriguing viral clips that promoted the forthcoming blockbuster - Guy Pearce as Weyland Industries mysterious boss giving a TED lecture - and the best one, the one with Michael Fassbender as 'David' really had my attention:

Michael Fassbender as it turned out was excellent in his role, that's excusing his convenient and obvious plot moments, or more likely the inexplicable attitude swings, as for the rest of the movie, well 'convenient' and 'inexplicable' are a good start, but I'll leave it to this review here - Warning, spoilers from a very nasty sociopath megalomaniac, bad language, xenophobia, oh and Prometheus, the most expensive B-Movie ever made - thankfully in space nobody can hear you scream:
