【答案】 普罗米修斯:
Prometheus was a great movie. I am really wondering about, why theres such a shitstorm against this nice made movie. Therefore this review contains more about Science Fiction as a genre and why the movie totally fits into it.
First at all, Science Fiction isn a genre just about science and technology. Its also about discovering exotic places where a human being never was before. And Prometheus contains exactly this: Its a journey and the trying to answer the question where do we come from.
The movie has less to do with god. The theory, that life on earth comes from outer space, is just one of the thousands theories of lifes origins. The godlike beings, the ones who are older than mankind, are our origin. They are mortal and they have a normal life span. They e no gods. They can, whenever they want, destroy the life on earth with their mass murdering weapons.
Science Fiction isn , as already mentioned, just about technology. It also deals with the question: Where do we come from? The movie gives a great answer to that: Mankind comes from an alien race from outer space. They created us, because they wanted to, and they can kill us whenever they want – whats wrong with that? Why has there to be a shitstorm on this movie just because of this fact?
Its Ridley Scotts vision to deal with that question like he wants. Its his alien universe, not that from the fans. Its his creations. He has a plausible explanation for mankinds origin. The movie doesn say that the science of biology and evolution on earth are wrong; it just says that mankind doesn originate like we imagine it. Thats all. Its nothing about the scientific scheme, and has nothing to do with religion.
The movie is in the main parts like archaeology: The humans discover a foreign planet and its dead inhabitants. They search for old relicts and for the possibility to make a contact with them. Its the search for the origins again; this motivation is as old as mankind itself. Therefore this motivation is enough to make the movie plausible.
The fact that this movie has differences to the original Alien is actually good. Its structure is like the original, but its motivation is completely different from the original movie. The horror parts of this movie deal with the exploration of the unknown and foreign: The humans don know whats there on this planet. The unknown biology is a threat for the humans. This Science Fiction tradition is as old as the genre itself.
The movie has much more to do with Science Fiction than any other alien movie in the last years. Like other movies (District 9, Sunshine, etc.) this isn about aliens invading the earth or great space battles. And thats actually good, because movies showing this aren real Science Fiction movies. In Independence Day, Battleship or World Invasion: Battle Los Angeles the aliens could easily be replaced by human aggressors. They are continually developing from the unknown to the known, so mankind can defeat them. But its actually more realistic and better fitting to the genre, when the unknown threat can NOT made known, when it stays a threat.
The atmosphere of this movie is great. The fantastic OST plays an important: It helps integrate the moviegoer in the movie. Combined with the splendid and gorgeous visuals it helps to be in the movie and not outside it.
The shitstorm against this movie derives from two reasons: 1. Prometheus is different from the original movie, but has the same structure. 2. The alien can be seen unless the very end; many moviegoers are actually disappointed, because it isn the original alien. But the fact that the alien race is a xenomorphic race (it adapts to body of its host) is the reason the alien at the end of the movie is different from the alien we know in Alien, because it derives from this humanoid alien race we see in the first minutes of Prometheus.
Science Fiction isn just about technology. Its main motivation and characteristic is: Facing the unknown, discovering foreign worlds because of curiosity and furthermore looking in a mirror. Science Fiction depicts our own identity. The movie contains just possibilities about where we come from, it doesn definitely say that this is true. Neither does science, and so we can think about our origins because of this movie.
