From what I heard about the movie it sound like it has a horrible message. Far as I understand, there are a bunch of people living in a place with no crime, no disease and no poverty and then a bunch of people that aren't there get jealous and try to drag them down to their level. I might give a look though, I did enjoy District 9.

Yup. Kinda thought it would be before I watched it. It's good though, IMO much better than District 9.
