Stunning visually, of course, and it answered a couple of questions hanging over from the Alien franchise.

There are shortcomings, but it's enjoyable nonetheless. It is sci-fi after all.
I am glad to see someone else thinks the same. There was no continuity from the ending of this movie to the first Alien movie, unless I missed something. In the Alien movie the "big dude" was found at the controls with a big hole in his chest, in Prometheus......you know. Probably me just be anal!
