But then I saw it - it was actually quiet good - ok it wasnt my sort of film and it was kind of a hard film to like if you know what I mean - not a crowd pleaser but there you go I would give it 67 percent. I also think it needs re watching as it was complex and cleverly intertwined.
But possibly more importantly there was allot of ambiguity the prometheus / lindelof 'feel' had seeped into it - interesting. This time done a bit better though as I say I will have to see it again. Cormac McCarthy is a great writter - he may even be able to inject something into prometheus as say an advisor or something but maybe its too late for that...anyone seen it - what did you think?

You have more info on the meaning? It does feel like theres more to it and that youtube link is weird - I was hoping the film would be more like that clip. But yer this film was dark with a very unhollywood ending. Will be interesting to see how it goes down elsewhere. Strange it only opened in the us...

It is hard to tell whats what even with documentaries. Ridley hasnt been firing out srunners for a while I just hope its just temporary.
