On a basic level the setting of the slums and the governance relationship made it transient in how authority deals with some people. It was good , but would out the usual hollywood hype. I know i'm late but it was good.

ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- When Ken Umeano went to watch the summer sci-fi blockbuster "District 9," he stormed out after 30 minutes.

"I was so angry," said Umeano, a Nigeria native living in Atlanta. "They were showing Nigerians as corrupt, eating aliens, saying they have sex with aliens. I could not watch that."

While Clement Nyirenda believes the director should have used a fictional country, he said the outcry is much ado about nothing.

After all, he said, the Nigerian movie industry, Nollywood, is filled with the same characterizations.

"The (Nollywood) movies show Nigerians as witch doctors, corrupt, a lot worse," Nyirenda said. "Nigeria is mostly known for 419 scams ... the government officials should focus on cleaning the image."

The term "419 scams" refers to spam e-mails that ask for money and bank information.

Blomkamp, who grew up in Johannesburg, told CNN last month that he didn't want the sci-fi tale about aliens and apartheid to be defined by politics.

"I didn't want to go, 'Here's a whole bunch of people oppressed by this apartheid-esque society' and beat people over the head with it," Blomkamp said. "I rather wanted to say this is the city I grew up in, this is what it felt like."

Great movie. Was taken aback, as all I knew was that it was Sci-Fi, and I'm not big sci-fi fan.
