I saw this movie yesterday and I was absolutely blown away!

Rating: 10/10 (6 September 2009)

This is one of those movies that comes along maybe once every ten years, and it will forever change the way 'man vs. alien' movies are made and viewed.
During the first part I felt that the movie was meant to drive home the message of how people in various countries treat others that are deemed less valuable, and they did a great job of that. Then it changes and picks up pace but it never deviates from the core message, which is designed to showcase the absolute worst of human nature. This is not a movie about aliens – it's a movie people in all their slimy and ignorant worst.
Peter Jackson is a power-house film-maker and with films such as this he is at the very top of the industry. I cannot recommend this movie enough because of the poignant message of basic human greed and how that message can be applied to almost any current social issue on the planet.
