Using unknown actors most likely helped lower the cost, for one. But indeed, the special effects are very, very good. The mothership lingering over the Johannesburg looked very realistic. It did not feel out of place despite it being an unusual lingering mass over the cityscape.
The prawns themselves looked very organic (excluding some of the prawns more important to the story, who's eyes screamed CGI). The shot in the first few minutes of the movie when you see soldiers breaking into the ship and prawns cowering from the light looks so real. Its one of the few movies in history, along with Jurassic Park, to manage CGI so well.
