  Prometheus 2012

  ★½ Watched 09 Jun 2012

  A team of scientists travel to space to investigate a network of vast plot-holes.

  Garbage. But very pretty garbage. The characters are terrible, parts of the story break-off, go nowhere or make so little sense that they would make even Christopher Nolan blush. I don't even understand why Michael Fassbender is getting so much praise for this film - he plays the most clichéd robot I've seen in years.

  The bad guy kindly telegraphs in early to let us know who they are, which is nice. Then…
