Cloverfield. I like alien movies like this, but there wasn't anything original in it.
District 9. Again, a movie that's been made a million times before. There wasn't any real character development, so you just didn't care what happened to any of the characters...except for the father and son aliens.
What part of District 9 has been done a million times?? Is there a sub-genre of aliens in Africa which is partially metaphorical of the race issue? Do those movies have the same near flawless blend of CGI and practical effects?
The movie wasn't a character driven for a reason. It was meant to portray the area and conditions in a documentary-type situation.
