Reviews

“Something like genuine grandeur… The 3-D is unusually graceful — your gaze is absorbed rather than assaulted — and you are pulled into a world of lovely and disconcerting strangeness with plenty of time to puzzle over the behavior of its inhabitants.”
– A.O. Scott, The New York Times

“Certainly has a look—it’s grand, somber, and gray, like some region of Hell that Dante never got around to mapping…Ridley Scott’s craft is all-powerful.”
– David Denby, The New Yorker

“A CAPTIVATING EXPERIENCE, meant to be savored on the big screen. Ridley Scott’s reputation as a master craftsman is well deserved and he offers up a big, impressive, eye-opening production.”
– Indiewire

“SPECTACULAR!”
– Salon

“A magnificent science-fiction film, all the more intriguing because it raises questions about the origin of human life and doesn't have the answers. It’s in the classic tradition of golden age sci-fi, echoing Scott’s Alien (1979), but creating a world of its own…A seamless blend of story, special effects and pitch-perfect casting, filmed in sane, effective 3-D that doesn't distract.”
– Roger Ebert

“POLISHED, EXPANSIVE, AND AT TIMES BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL!”
– A.V. Club
