District 9 rocks(no spoilers)!!

I just saw the movie district 9! And I was really impressed. In the middle, when all the action unfolds, alien weapons, millitary action, snipers, etc. I just felt like "Hey man I know this! This is half life 2!!"

The setting is very similar and although the movie has a fully different scope the action scenes are definitively intense.

Similarities:

- alien weapon technology

- evil business plans from mega corporations

- lonesome fighter allies with aliens

- intense fire fights with three parties(black market, military, aliens)

- supersized alien installation as background in most of the screens;)

Of course both stories made different points and especially district 9 is a very well told story about humanity(or the lack of it), but if the action starts, You will feel like a movie version of half life 2
