District 9

District 9Ever since the teaser shown during the preview reel of Wolverine that left me with way too many questions, I knew something special was about to come out of New Zealand. After months of ARGs and tiny snippets of footage I left my underground bunker and ventured into the local movie theater and finally got to witness the horrors and mysteries of District 9.

Hot out of the long and painful death of the Halo movie, Blomkamp, with the help of master, Peter Jackson, worked to create a new, interesting, and all together fresh universe. I found myself pleasantly surprised, I had seen something I wasn’t entirely expecting and left the theater with a smile on my face and satisfaction of knowing I had, for once, paid money to see a good movie.

I had been waiting for a science fiction movie as amazing as District 9 for years. In May, Star Trek had filled the void left by its extremely sub-par predecessors, but District 9 is really what the genre had been needing.

My only gripe is that after leaving the theater and returning to my cave I found myself wanting more. Although the film stands its ground in its own right, the ending is left very open and had me asking, “Okay, when is the sequel?” I have no doubt in my mind that there will be a sequel as the film has already made a large profit in it’s opening weekend.

I don’t feel I need to go too in-depth with this miniature review, I will say this though: If you like science fiction, aliens, and a good story you should definitely go and see District 9.

If you feel you need more convincing, read this review posted by Napalm Riot’s own Zmann966:
