The movie is set in some 75 years in the future, with a pair of archeologists looking at a 35,000 year old cave painting which depicts ancient humans pointing to a celestial systems light years away. They find that this same system has been noticed in many different civilizations across the globe. They set out on an expedition with a team of scientists, explorers and a very life like robot.The movie then basically surrounds their experience on the planet, looking for the aliens they called "The Engineers" the people who they believed brought humaity to earth.
As you'd expect from the trailer, things don't go as planned and some strange things happen that cause people to start dying. The action continues throughout the movie with the story culiminating in the team realizing that they were not on the home of their ancestors but rather at a place of death.
The movie really does not explain a lot of the topics that it picks up on, Who are these Engineers? How did our ancestors know about them? What's with the alien in the last scene? It centers too much on the action then on the actual story and is a real let down. On the whole I would not really recommend going to the movies to watch this movie. Wait for the movie on TV, it's fine for a bored sunday afternoon when you don't have anything else to watch.
What would I rate this movie? Well, it would be 2 on 5.
