This could have happened, and in fact may happen. The characters are believable and the style of the film just adds to it. Right up until the end you are never sure what's going to happen next. In all, this is a film we worth every cent to see. She thought she would have to leave half way through. This is not a film you want to watch after a big meal. Like other films which cover the worst that humans can do, there is a brutal violence present and the directory has not shied away from depicting it. If it wasn't for the alien space ship in the background and the poor being alien in every sense, you would think this was a movie about any slum and the people who prey on the inhabitants. The aliens are presented almost as animals yet you rapidly start to sympathize with them and tune into their desperation. These in my opinion took it from being what could have been just another "aliens vs humans" film and elevated into the realms of social commentary. The film style was very much documentary like with lots of sound byte style comments settings the scenes and giving commentary all through the film. We had seen the previews and were intrigued to see just what the film would be like. Just got home from a preview of District 9.
