Very good, but...

Rating: 8/10 (13 September 2009)

This is easily the best science fiction movie of the last few years. But if you haven't seen this, try to avoid the hype. It is hard, I know. I tried and failed and left the cinema a bit disappointed.
As I said, it is a really good movie. No doubt about that. But it is not a movie deserving 10 points. 8 definitely, 9 if you wanna get nasty.
What I liked was how the aliens were portrayed. What I didn't like was the overall feel. I thought it felt like a franchise. So many questions were left unanswered, which nowadays usually means there is a television show up around the corner. And the ending was screaming "District 10" right into my face. In my eyes that cheapened the entire experience considerably.
