I saw this movie and I thought that it had the potential to be great. However, the satirical aspects of the movie (alien wearing a pink bra, phrases like "sign here that you understand the eviction notice") really cheapened it.
I thought it was pretty good, but the cheap, satire parts really undermined what could have been a much better film.
PS I have been to South Africa, including the township of Soweto, and let's just say, I don't think they needed to build any sets to shoot these movie.
There were elements as allegory not only to apartheid, but also colonialism / WWII (i.e. ghetto'izing a population deemed to be undesirable by moving them to a ghette or "reserve", medical experiements, etc.).
