The movie District 9 was actually a pleasant surprise and a departure from the usual Hollywood drek. Finally the aliens land somewhere besides NY, LA or DC; Indeed its South Africa.
Of course this film is a whole lot like Alien Nation in many ways except these aliens are apparently all nuts. They are made out the stereotypical lazy immigrant bum living on welfare.
It is 20 years after the ship reached Earth, the aliens are still living in a shanty town camp. Their population is ballooning, as a matter of fact everytime it is mentioned the number is higher and higher.
While the film has some typical stuff, a human becoming "one of them" and stuff, it is refreshing not to see a bunch of liberal crap thrown in. I actually liked this movie.
