Horror/political movie

Rating: 7/10 (25 December 2004)

It is often said ( and even more often, sadly, forgotten) that one must judge film,music not by the message he receives from it to his like or dislike, but by characteristics of the art itself.Hence,that's why I rated this film so well (7/10), for it's directed well, acted super-bely especially Adrian Brody stands out giving life to his character, retarded man, playing him on brink of caricature, but still keeping the tragical aspects of character.The story is finely written, although in some points illogical, but these are only petty remarks.But on the other hand,the message is terrifying..The creatures didn't scare me, but reading between lines did for what I saw in this film was America of George W. Bush, where the fear is irrational and spreading like virus and it isn't important whether the creatures or Muslims or something different and this fear, maybe false, keeps the society whole.And lines "Lucius,I am back" confirm the film's attitude towards this kind of society.Very disturbing.
