Perhaps the most over rated movie in 20 years

Rating: 1/10 (31 December 2009)

I am a huge movie fan. I am an extremely forgiving fan. I can easily suspend my disbelief for a good cause. This waste of 2 hours, however, is perhaps the most over rated movie in 20 years.
First off, I was dumbstruck at how AWFUL the acting is. I'm pretty confident saying this movie contains some of the worst acting in fifty years. Please God, whatever you do to me, do not make me watch another movie with Sharlto Copley.. ever.
Secondly, the plot has holes the size of the milky way galaxy. An advanced alien race comes to earth, for some reason visits only Johannesburg, South Africa, has "car problems" above the city, lets the technologically and physically weaker humans smack them around, they live in slums, eat cat food, and dive around in trash cans. Sounds like something a 3rd grader would jot down in his X-Men notebook.
If I had gone to the theater to see this, I would have walked out. How this mess has an 8.4 rating is beyond me. I will be using the DVD as a coaster on my end table, because at least the artwork was decent.
