I have a joke for you. I have a prediction that you are going to walk into a bar, my prediction was wrong and your wallet is gone.

You can certainly see the District 9 influences/style from the trailer. I hope there is some kind of story in there. Reminds me of an Austrian/German film called Cargo. I'll give it a shot but I've been really struggling movie wise of late and consequently not watching much.

Am I wrong when I think that things are getting too polished in the movie industry ? It all seems to be going all style over content. I was really disappointed with Prometheus and since then my cynicism levels seem to have gone off the scale when it comes to movies.

I'll see what Kermode thinks of it and then make my mind up :)

Cargo was a good movie also.
