"Prometheus" is landing in London. The world premiere of Sir Ridley Scott's new sci-fi thriller takes place in Leicester Square on Thursday night. Stars Noomi Rapace, Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender and Guy Pearce will join the director by touching down on a special blue carpet to meet fans.

This week at the movies brings no new wide releases, but we've still got some strong limiteds, including Shame, starring Michael Fassbender and Carey Mulligan, and Takeshi Kitano's Outrage. What do the critics have to say? Critics say Shame is an intense, beautifully crafted portrait of a profoundly damaged soul, often painful but powerfully acted. Shame stars Michael Fassbender as a sex addict whose inner demons threaten to spiral out of control when his troubled younger sister (Carey Mulligan) moves into his apartment, bringing her resentments with her.

Michael Fassbender, Dominic West and Olga Kurylenko have signed to star in Neil Marshall's British-set sword-and-sandals thriller "Centurion."
