also, they mentioned that the prawns had lost all direction because their leadership for one reason or another died, or went missing, or whatever - they simply didn't know...just that the prawns were likely worker prawns, and not at the top of the food chain - hence why they are so crazy, stupid and unruly - which I assume is some kind of parallel statement to how the rich in human society kept and keep poor people ignorant, so that they are more likely to accept the powers that be.
The prawns are obviously "insect" - and therefore one would assume that they have some kind of ant-like society or hierarchy...the workers are completely lost without the queen, and without some kind of objective and ruler to guide them, they just go haywire.
I thought it was a cool movie, with a fairly unique story...nice to see something that isn't just aliens coming and beating the crap out of us only to be killed by....water, or some shit LOL

i am with you! it's fun to discuss movies lightheartedly as well, the good films spark dialogue.
that being said, while i see EXACTLY what you are saying, you lend credence to my plot hole conclusion, he promised the human that he would return for him, not his fellow aliens. the same human who fouled his plans, betrayed him, and is related to those who commit atrocites to the alien's relatatives.
yet the benevolent, compassionate alien bails on 2 million of his bros!
