Good on eyes. Bad on brain.
Some people have read a whole lot into it, especially about givers of life vs. destroyers of life, but to me, it was more like a grocery list of scenes and homages to Star Trek, Star Wars and Indiana Jones. Allegedly, there's a Scott-preferred cut that's +30 minutes. Will give it another chance when that's out.
Scott has made a good living re-releasing his movies with different cuts - Blade Runner (3 different versions) and Gladiator. This film will probably take him to retirement.

Actually, I believe there are 5 cuts of Blade Runner(!). Could be wrong. I have a DVD set with 4 versions. Ridley's most recent cut is my favorite.
Incidentally, I was on the set, and there was so much that didn't end up on screen. A whole parking lot full of retrofitted cars, for one.
Anyway, bunch of good user reviews on IMDB. Prometheus was beaten badly at the box office by Madagascar 3. :-/
