December 5, 2009awesome, builds up with style, intensity, and ease - ending with a quality action sequence.
-
December 3, 2009District 9 makes an odd start but it does fall back on track after its first hour. It is not the originality but the stunning way with which the team has treated the last forty minutes of the film has made all the difference.

December 1, 2009Sci-fi bem original pela proposta de ser um filme realista. É conduzido como se tratasse de uma história real do planeta onde pessoas normais dão seus depoimentos enquanto uma rede de televisão transmite a tensão entre aliens e humanos.
-
December 1, 2009Rather sick and strange movie, wasn't good wasn't too bad. I just loved that little cute prone, it was nice that he and his father survived...
-
December 1, 2009A slow-burner which really hits it's climax well; you're really pulling for the anti-hero at the end.
-
December 1, 2009Hey! Hey!! Hey!!! Some great stuff out of SA. It's a new realism of Africa's claim to the berth of Sci-fi and despite obvious racial sarcasm imputed in the casting, 'District 9' sure deserves its position.
'District 9' is the FUTURE of sci-fi in Africa! -
November 30, 2009I still think this movie shows the saddistic nature of the White westerns than it shows anyother thing about the under-developed third world citizens.
-
November 30, 2009Aliens come to Earth, blah blah. Totally plays against genre by not going all science fiction special effects, but instead using aliens to look at the uglier side of humanity. Fantastic film.
-
November 30, 2009This is one of the more original films in the past decade. District 9 has a cheesy tone to it, but the amazingly unique plot and stunning special effects turn it into a campy, gory sci-fi classic.
-
November 29, 2009Wow this was surprisingly good couldn't take it seriously when i saw the ''prawns"at first but the plot is pretty elaborated and however easy to follow. Interesting and entertaining movie, good sci-fi and while close to the Cloverfield premise this has a totally different perspec...( read more)

November 28, 2009Fantástico, achei simplesmente genial. Mudou meu conceito de sci-fi alien.
-
November 28, 2009Disappointing. Buildup to a possible great story only to have it turn into boom boom boom.
-
November 28, 2009Interesting concept. Obviously representative of Apartheid with aliens. Sci-fi with politics novel.

November 27, 2009A real knockout. A triumph. Director, Neill Blomkamp crafts an extroadinary and excellent movie with great style and originaility. The most orginal science-fiction film in decades. It's bloomin brilliant and utterly epic. An exhileratiing thrill-ride of explosive non-stop action,...( read more)

November 26, 2009Amazing movie that manages to show all the evil nature in humans.
The plot is interesting and fast, and it was shot in a very not-orthodox way, and it is good.
I'll watch the movie again for sure, hoping for a sequel when the alien s come again and kick some evil-human ass. -
November 26, 2009Sin duda alguna es la version subersiva que he visto del genero de ovnis y los extraterrestres, pues dista mucho de ser la tipica pelicula donde una nave extraterrestre llega a la tierra con motivos invasores, si no al contrario en esta nos plantea otra vision mas realista pues m...( read more)

November 25, 2009very boring film,who the hell did the story line on this? had they been drinking.
-
November 24, 2009I was curious at first, slowly getting annoyed... then angry.. and then sad! , but I liked it :)
-
November 24, 2009i'm pretty sure i;m not gonna like it!I'm over big loud alien movies,no matter how high budgeted they are.
-
November 24, 2009INSTANT CLASSIC!
I've been waiting for something like this to be made for a very long time. You've got to applaude the approach to this film. It sets up like a documentary which helps keep it realistic and gets across the notion that this alien race of refugees have been stran...( read more) -
November 23, 2009The layers of meaning within this film is extraordinarily thick and it does not take a genius to figure out the nuances of inhumanity that the film sets out to portray.
-
November 22, 2009"He was an honest man, and he didn't deserve any of what happened to him. "
Wow. Simply put... Wow. The future of the sci-fi genre is saved and Neill Blomkamp is the reason why it all looks so hopeful. Blomkamp was projected to direct the 'Halo' movie, which is based on the succ...( read more) -

November 21, 2009There is so much about this movie that makes it as good as it is. The graphics are very well done, giving the movie an enhanced sense of realness. I also really like how it was based out of Johannesburg instead of a major American city. It had everything from intense action scene...( read more)
-
November 21, 2009This movie shines in the first two acts but takes a drastic crash in the last act as it feels like a pointless sci-fi shootout. While the shootout near the end was entertaining, I felt it didn't change a lot to the plot.
-
November 20, 2009Starts off very promisingly but then dillutes into Sci-Fi/Action flick with lots of plot holes.
-
November 20, 2009Over-rated in my opinion.
I would say other than the effects, and documentary style setting for this film. There's not much too brag about.
It's not for everyone.
Wikus Van De Merwe: [Points out Alien graffiti] This is basically a guy, and there's 3 humans here, basically tryin...( read more) -
