Today, I saw Prometheus in IMAX 3D with my dad, and it was everything I expected it to be--fantastic. I haven't seen Alien, but I have heard that Prometheus is roughly based on it and there are multiple Alien references in Prometheus. Afterall, they have the same director, Ridley Scott.
If you decide to see Prometheus, I would recommend not seeing it in 3D. Unlike The Avengers, I didn't really notice the 3D effect. I don't think it made much of a difference.
I don't want to give any of the plot away, but in the end, they do leave it open for a sequel. Based on the midnight showing numbers, my guess is that there will a sequel in the future.
Overall Score: 95%
