District 9

[Phantomz]

Decent movie easy to follow.... Was a lot like Cloverfield kinda with the cameras but a decent movie anyhow.

yea, but less trying to make out what you are seeing.

It's a safe bet that an adult film called District 69 is in the works.

The cool thing about this movie is the guy made a short film of it

This guy was working with Peter Jackson on a Halo movie which when nearly finished stopped being made. from there Jackson said to the guy make your movie into a full feature film and gave him a totally free run...and what came out of it is district 9. As those who have watched know, it is all set in the slums of Joburg SA. This is the type of thing Spielberg used to do for the relativley unknowns... This guy could be a new big name for the movie buisness...some fresh blood to an almost stagnated industry.

I really enjoyed the film alot.  Creative, fresh, dark, funny, clever, disturbing, challenging, and it even had a "death by flying pig carcass" moment.

I give it a 8.5 or 9 out of 10.

I saw this for free on Thursday night.   It was an excellent movie.  I was laughing at the the throngs of people coming out of there saying: "Why was this filmed in Johannesburg?"   I "got it", 5 minutes into the film.   

But I agree, it good to finally see a movie that was not "a remake" for a change.   I cannot wait for "Dambusters".   THAT is the movie I'm waiting for.

There was a couple good flicks comin out from the previews but they are going to take forever to come out go figure... Still wanna see GI Joe and A Perfect Getaway.

Just got back from it...
First movie this year I felt was actually worth the expenditure of time and monies.
Nice to see something ORIGINAL on the screen, and the SFX are slick.  Camera work isn't nearly like "Cloverfield" (which means it's better and steadier than Cloverfield), and I felt the acting was genuinely good.  It's obvious there's going to be a following installment.....but I won't spoil it for those who don't want details.

This movie's gonna catch on and be the summer surprise. 

9 eels out of 10 from me.

I am so glad to hear the good reviews on this one.  Good sci-fi movies seem to be so rare in the last couple of decades.  I had high hopes for this one, it appears that I might not be let down.

[BlueJ1]

I liked it. Was worth the money to see at the show.

[DJ111]

Very good movie.

Amazing FX btw.
