Awesome movie,top 3 sci-fi movies ever made.
I'm going to become a doco film maker now. My ceiling recently flooded and I caught it all on film. Really shaky hand held camera and boring as all hell...oh wait...that sounds too much like District 9....
Possibly the worst movie I have seen. Can't believe I sat through it.
Definitely different. From the setting - a real Soweto township - to the story line, this movie was far from fictional. I am not normally a fan of the sci-fi/alien genre, but I was suprised by how much I enjoyed District Nine. Not for the traditional crowd. Waiting now for the sequel!
Does anyone have a worse adjective than "atrocious"...if so please apply to this movie
Once I got used to the style of the film, it was well worth it.
I go to the movies once or twice a week and I have since I've been a kid, this is possibly the best sci-fi movie I've ever seen. To those that didn't like it or worse yet walked out on it, what the hell do you like? Mary Poppins? Fantastic movie in all respects!
i enjoyed this movie, not all action/sci-fi movies need to be filmed and take place in the states. very good movie...
Excellent. Most alien type movies are shot in dark but that was a great job shooting in day light. Very touchy and very close to realistic situation if it could ever happen like this in real life. Very good work.
I did like the movie, and as the person below said, I did connect with the characters as well. I thought it was a good movie and you don't think about the effects because everything seems so natural with it's surroundings and the way it moves. So I guess thimbs up on graffics too! My boyfriend was talking about how amazing this movie was for like a week after seeing it lol I thought the racism was interesting.
