very mild spoiler rant
all the documentary stuff in the beginning and the end just isn't convincing. it made the movie look like some kind of parody joke. only to be followed by the annoying protagonist. Half of the movie just seemed too much like a joke. why do the aliens have such innate human like behaviors like patting their child in the head? that really threw me off and added to the joke quality.
they keep promoting how there are a lot of secrets in district9, maybe i'm not deep enough but i just don't see any attempts to present any of the "secrets" that is behind it. the only secret i learned was aliens also pat their children on the head.
some parts of the thing made it seem like a skittles commercial, esp with the guys accent and people exploding.
and how did the guy learn alien again? it seemed like he couldn't understand much of what they were saying in the beginning during the eviction. but in the end he can understand fucking difficult words like FUEL or something.
