Great movie, anyone else here seen it?

Personally, I loved it because it combined some of my favorite things: Aliens, Explosions, criticism of the way we look at immigrants and how easy it is to dehumanize people.

Stricly speaking there is no lesbian content at all (although the aliens do appear to be a-sexual in nature) but the theme about dehumanizing or othering those who are different certainly applies to the anti-gay-marriage crowd.

How old is it? I've heard of it but I've never seen it. Maybe I'll go rent it. _________________ ★veggie spork ♪

My brother dragged me to it, and I thought it was going to suck.... but I was really really impressed with the storyline - totally recommend it

It really is a great movie IMO, but I do have mixed feelings. I found it disturbing and difficult to watch at times _________________

Great movie. Disturbing parallels to real life. Awesome acting - doubly so when you realize the guy who played Wilkus improvised most (all?) of his lines. Brilliantly executed what with the gritty feel of it all and the documentary footage.

With that said - and at the great risk of sounding like a dirty pervert - Wilkus and/or hermaphroditic Prawn porn-content is currently dominating, at least, 70% of the websites I frequent. I'm not sure which is worse; that Rule 34 is alive and well, that I'm disturbingly "okay" with said content, or that I've actually considered contributing. Shocked

... The internet ruins everything for me...
