I took it for what it was. Early on I read in reviews not to expect aliens in the movie so I didn't. They also said it would explain a bit of the first alienmovie, which it did. There were a number of things I figured out before hand and there was one scene I looked away from but I didn't find it as scary as some people had said. Overall, I really liked it. I found it to be a very good movie. The only thing I had a problem with, was in the beginning, the technical stuff in the theater was messing around so the screen was blurry. We saw the 2D-movie but the first five minutes was like watching a 3D film without the glasses.

With movies made with 3D in mind, the rendering doesn't always translate properly for 2D, so you get that wonky blurring, ESPECIALLY when the camera is panning. I saw it Prometheius BIG time, and also in Brave ( ugh, ALL 3D movies should be Imax ONLY. Regular 3D HURTS to watch, especially since I wear glasses. ).
I enjoyed it even though the story was very flawed. There were also times I felt like yelling at the screen because the characters were behaving irrationally. However, the visuals and the scientist--Charlie Holloway (Logan Marshall-Green definitely channeling Tom Hardy here...)--were quite yummy to look at. My bf and I left the theater with so many questions. Too many than is good for the story-telling, maybe lol.Michael Fassbender, though, didn't fail to impress me yet again. The guy is a tour de force.
I was bothered when the space jockey alien left his crashed ship, since that departed from the space jockey scene in the first Alien film.
