ok, i am going to go ahead and reveal THE BIG plot hole in this film.
while a sci-fi film, the movie is also a drama, shown by importance placed on the character development.
who didn't become emotionally involved with the alien? those doe eyes, his love for his son, he just wanted to go home is all. And his complete passive response ( almost forgiveness) to human mistreatment of his fellow aliens.
so after all this, he takes the mothership for just himself and his son?
leaving almost 2 million of his fellows to be left to the atrocities he witnessed and experienced.
that is a plot hole. a happy hollywood ending but not so happy when you think about it!
either way, a great and entertaining movie film.
