Prometheus is a great example of "what could have been". Great themes, fantastic visuals, some cool ideas, but... I don't know what the word/phrase is but the people, their motivations and actions are almost all just ridiculous.

To call it all off, they just abandon the interesting potential they set up by killing Shaw, all the engineers, and basically repeating the movie in covenant.
