My Review- 

I really do not know where to begin with this movie, even though I really liked it the movie it is hard to find a place to start with this review. One thing I will say is that this movie was brilliantly casted with really good actors to be in the film; some of the actors I liked were Idris Elba, Noomi Rapace, and Michael Fassbender. Especially Fassbender's portrayal of the android David, he just seemed like such a badass in the movie even though he did not show any emotion at all. There was no part of this movie where I found myself bored, I enjoyed every minute from beginning to end, even though at times I would have hoped they would have answered some questions that were left up in the air in some parts. Besides that there were some scenes that stood out more than others, and I really like how Ridley Scott did do this movie to somewhat of a prequel to Alien, and I think I would have enjoyed this movie even more if I had not seen Alien first. I like how there were many scenes that paid homage to Alien since was most likely eventually going to lead to it. When the extra scene came up I almost even crazy along with my brother, but still like I said before IF I had never seen Alien before and watched this as the lead in to Alien I would have liked it more. One thing that I really liked this movie was the opening scene where it showed one of the "engineers" well actually before, it was when the planet was being seen for the first time and I felt like I was on the Soarin ride and California Adventure, since it was showing VAST scenery and every thing about the planet I thought it was really really cool. I would recommend this movie if you have seen Alien before because there is a 50/50 chance you may or may not like it. I know I enjoyed it and I will be looking forward to watching this movie again to try to see if I missed anything. One last thing I really do hope a sequel does get made because of the way that it ended, so that the questions that everyone had will get answered and if not then well that sucks.
