This is yet another movie where an alien with superhuman abilities comes to Earth and tells us all the things we're doing wrong. Think 'The Day The Earth Stood Still'. In the early version, we're all warned about the perils of nuclear war. In a later version, we're lectured about damaging the ecology. In a future version, no doubt we'll be warned about some other thing that we dim, stupid, primitive humans are getting wrong. The various aliens might as well be powerful demigods come to Earth to teach us how to live, and somehow the 'correct' way to live always adopts the liberal/progressive hot ideas of the day. But those people aren't big on gods or religions, so they use omniscient, almost all-powerful and more than a tad supercilious aliens.
