District 9 was supposedly consolation for the director in the cancellation of The Halo movie. Maybe the last half of the movie was left over from the screen play. It started as a faux documentary on the political problems with immigration of aliens (from another planet). Then the script changes into the standard summer shoot 'em up: the Halo Movie. Should the movie had changed? I don't know, but it happens every time in the summer. They need the action. Abandon the story.
And what did they abandon? Some logic. Why would aliens make alien technology weapons that are awesome, then just roll over when the po-po come to kick them out? Why would aliens need to horde human weapons? Why wouldn't aliens just be taking over the planet? No sense.
Meh. It's just another summer movie. Turn your brain off and go enjoy the aircon.
