prometheus entertaining but religiously uninspiring

This film imposes a atheistic belief system around the cult status of giants of old and antiquity. once they were giants in those days, the bible says. the film has all the ques to quickens the introduction of the characters, the suspense narrative, the teasing of the audience why are these people on this spaceship and sent on an assignment but a eccentric entrepreneur. the eccentric entrpreneur paradox was introduced by the film contact, where an eccentric funded a time space traveling module. the unravelling of the plot before the plot is explored preserves viewer interest. character build up tension creates anticipation for a cresendo, a natural conflictive peak in the film that would lead once again to the truth of the matter. the film does well building up interest with the antiquity presentation. many films create content and historical depth and character in the film by having that library research scene where a subject and mystery is studied by the cast and viewed by the audience as a sort of participant in the mystery unravelling of the plot. the front poster allures this contrast between history and science fiction. a confronting marketing pitch very effective. sporadic elements of thriller suspense are interwoven. unfortunately where the entertainment element is adequate and quite stimulating, any philosophical or theological searching through a film, or most films for that matter ought not be sort, especially with this film. A scene shows the robot take a crucifix from one of the characters, perhaps symbolic of the part he is taking from not siding with the character noomi rapace, of her cares and concerns. that led to the abortion of an alien birth by a self automated computer surgeon. The film infers that humanity is the offspring of this prehistorical race of giants or gods. this trend has been promulgated officially by the history channel which produced many series around this ideology. the theological messages inherent in the film are conflictive and probably intended so that the audience can interpret according their individuals beliefs. But the decision of a character to not want to go back to earth but search for the gods further, is a symptom contrary to the faith in the crucifix she claims to have. it narrates more a faithless fallen humanity who believe scientific determinism through the passages of the last frontier are the means by which one can search for gods. the film's flaw is encountered here. the film concludes that these beings are not good. however the surviving character wants to know more. this stream of reasoning the preludes the closing of the film is a weak premise. Spoke Zarathustra by Friedrich Nietzsche, and featured a video of Weyland, who quotes from the book.[176] reference to wiki on this movie. one can see the deistic and nilistic atheistic drive around the film. the doom and gloom is a universe without meaning driving people to believe blindly that man's destiny lies in traveling to the far reaching destinations of the universe. of course this symbolises the doom and folly of modern science and its proven destructive effects on the globe and its inflated worth to humanity at a time where our scientific determinsim has driven us to believe we are above nature and we can control it with disastrous effects. this modern scientific determnisim resembles medieval feudal tendencies. the romans had solar energy considering the earth the natural sustainer and harmoniser we are subject to. todays civilisation rather utilise nuclear energy than the sustainable and less profitable solar energy. this movie resembles meloncholia in some of its gore. their is no happy ending because the script writer does not believe in fairy tales, but wanted instead a marketable ending based on interpretation and pluralism, but systematically erased any certain definitive happy ending . even though the ending was not sad. the bad mission resembles the failed ship of progress of modern science, parading its benefit and worth, when it has done more bad than good.
