    Prometheus - so much potential, but such a poor script.
    The Dark Knight Rises - not a bad movie, but certainly the weakest of the three. Catwomen turned into Bat Girl and I got the distinct impression that Nolan was tiring of the franchise.

    Prometheus: felt more like a rehash of the original Alien than anything fresh and new. Not a bad film, but could/should have been so much better.

    The Amazing Spider-Man: Despite promising to tell the 'untold story' it ended up being a copy n' paste job of the first Raimi movie.

    Prometheus - get the impression it wasn't sure what it wanted to be.
    Taken 2 - a film that just makes no sense at all.after the brilliance of the first one,this was chronic.

    Prometheus. Although not without some good points ultimately disappointing when compared to Alien.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,692 ✭✭✭Jarren


    Another vote for Prometheus, very disappointed with that movie.

    It had a great potential but just went arseways with unnecessary heavy editing.

    Had much bigger expectations tbh.

    Prometheus - After all the hype, such a let down.

    The Dark Knight Rises - OK, so it tied up the loose ends, completed the trilogy etc etc, but such a let down.

    Prometheus, for about half an hour I was sitting thinking I cant wait until this gets going, and then....rubbish.

    Normally, Cillian Murphy can do no wrong for me, but this didn't work.

    Prometheus.

    Lawless - Not what I was expecting from John Hillcoat. Seemed he didn't want to depress everyone again, á la The Road.

    Taken 2 - The first one was a surprise hit but this one just stinked of cashing in.
