Redefine your vision towards humanity, politics, and life overall.

Rating: 9/10 (15 November 2009)

I had high expectations towards this movie and I got more than expected. This is truly one of the most important films of our generation. It wasn't afraid of crossing the barriers between action, sci-fi, and even horror.
It delivers an important social message that at the same time has criticism towards humanity and the way we are leading to auto destruction and how we can't accept aliens or other beings.
Plus, it's really amazing to see how with a clever script and dialogs we really get into politics, action sequences, and even the perfect buddy situations.
I was pretty pleased with the explanation towards the alien's absence of leadership. Therefore, the movie feels politically accurate. I mean, the whole eviction situation is real and I'm proud to say that I can verify it because I work for the government. Also, it give us a real vision towards how politics rule the world and decide everything for people's lives.
The settings are beautiful taking in account that the post-apocalyptic scenarios are dreadful. I enjoyed the black humor and the acting specially by the South African Steve Carrell.
The soundtrack is haunting and memorable. Also, the Direction is top class and makes it look like a new classic.
Oh, and what about the visuals? Simply amazing and makes it look like the key movie of the decade.
Watch it and redefine your vision towards humanity and life overall. Sure, there are clichés such as the baby alien and his father, the buddy situations, and even the tender situation between Markus and his wife.
The ending truly moved me, you know, with the flower...
