    Once I got used to the style of the film, it was well worth it.

    I go to the movies once or twice a week and I have since I've been a kid, this is possibly the best sci-fi movie I've ever seen. To those that didn't like it or worse yet walked out on it, what the hell do you like? Mary Poppins? Fantastic movie in all respects!

    This movie was really good. I really recommend it. I'm not into Alien movies, but this one was amazing.

    Excellent. Most alien type movies are shot in dark but that was a great job shooting in day light. Very touchy and very close to realistic situation if it could ever happen like this in real life. Very good work.

    I did like the movie, and as the person below said, I did connect with the characters as well. I thought it was a good movie and you don't think about the effects because everything seems so natural with it's surroundings and the way it moves. So I guess thimbs up on graffics too! My boyfriend was talking about how amazing this movie was for like a week after seeing it lol I thought the racism was interesting.

    This movie was basically about apartheid.

    I don't know what people were expecting from this film, but I felt that this movie was great from start to finish. I was on the edge of my seat, and by the end of the movie I felt that I had really connected to the characters. The humour in the film really centers around the fact that the way human beings are portrayed in media is so different than reality, and that most of what occurred in this film has happened to real people with families and loved ones. It had good visual effects and I really don't know what people have been complaining about in regards to shaky camera movement. Maybe they didn't get the fact that the introduction to the plot and characters is supposed to be a documentar

    I found this movie to be very disappointing. For the most part, it is extremely boring except for the last 20 minutes. And the shaky cam? Really? There's no reason to have a "home video" style movie unless one of the characters is holding camera.

    Awesome movie! The plot was interesting and the acting superb! Not the typical Alien movie which was refreshing. Definitely worth seeing!
