RE: good grief, I've now watched this three times as well

I don't know why. This movie leaves me underwhelmed. Here I am, so starved for a good space-faring swashbuckling sci-fi movie that I leap at the first indication toward any new offering to come from the movie industry. Wherever it may be.

This movie starts out to go find and, hopefully, talk to the makers/creators of the human race. Fine, lets call them "Engineers". It seems more adult than to refer to any of them as a god. Perhaps Prometheus himself? But in the end we find that the "Engineers" are not at all benevelent and in fact wish to destroy the human race.

Dare we ask why? The movie doesn't chose to answer why.

Will the sequel answer this question, or will it devolve into another Alien film with the monsters getting out and killing and maiming more sentient beings like ourselves and among them our not-so-benevolent creators? Probably. Ho hum. I've yet to see P2, yet I suspect that I already have, and it was years ago.
