District 9 (2009)

Sci-Fi/Action/Thriller     Rated R

Plot

In 1982, a massive star ship bearing a bedraggled alien population, nicknamed "The Prawns," appeared over Johannesburg, South Africa. Twenty-eight years later, the initial welcome by the human population has faded. The refugee camp where the aliens were located has deteriorated into a militarized ghetto called District 9, where they are confined and exploited in squalor. In 2010, the munitions corporation, Multi-National United, is contracted to forcibly evict the population with operative Wikus van der Merwe in charge. In this operation, Wikus is exposed to a strange alien chemical and must rely on the help of his only two new 'Prawn' friends.

Acting

Very good, though there is only 1 big human character.

Gore

Humans and Aliens both are shots, explode, get crushed, etc... all gore i handled in a realistic manner and is not over the top.

Sex/Nudity

None

Final Thoughts

A very good movie, that live up to it's hype. The special effects are astounding and the story, acting and writing are all very good as well, Definitely a movie worth everyone should see, and own, Neill Blomkamp, the director,  hit the jackpart in his feature feature length film of what i hope will be many.

Overall Rating

B+
