Just saw this and was pretty disappointed. If as much time was spent writing this movie as was spent making it look visually impressive, they might have had something worthwhile.
---Spoilers below---
So we're going on a TRILLION dollar mission to find the origins of life, and the crew of 'professionals/scientists' have the demeanor of gas station attendants- and that's an insult to oil changers everywhere. Not to mention, the crew hasn't met one another (introducing themselves over their first meal after cryogenic sleep), and they receive their mission brief by hologram enroute? Dumb.
And the 'Rock-n-Roll' Doctor 'Charles' was a complete doucher, and I could not wait for him to die. Never once in awe about being on another world, and foolishly pops his helmet like a 12 year old.
Not to mention, flamethrowers as the primary weapon? Really? Dumb.
Revisiting the old tried and true female heroine-angle just like in Alien and Aliens. Wow. How disappointingly unoriginal.
Sucked. Huge thumbs down.
Plus, too many pointless extra characters running around like so many red-shirts from Star Trek; just there to die.
