Overblown and overrrated

Rating: 5/10 (16 August 2009)

What is the big deal? This movie is bloody, nasty, with two hours of shoot-em-up cruelty. The entire story could be told even more effectively without the gore--just the thrills. And with more character development, especially from the prawns. Really dumb stuff, and seriously disgusting.
There needs to be way more explanation of the plight of the prawns--why they did not use THEIR weapons more effectively while trying to make their secret "fluid" in a rundown, ridiculous lab shack. And why did they tolerate the wholesale slaughter of their young and exploitation by "Nigerians" who come across as wholly evil, savage people. This is a real insult.
