When did District 9 shove moral messages down the throat though? In fact, the most common complaint I've heard and read is that it dropped the ball on being meaningful and was, instead, just a creative action film. Aside for the first 45 minutes or so, which was necessary to create the world in which the action takes place, the rest just awesome action.

The special effects were amazing for $30 million. It's all about context.
