District 9

Alright now let's just get something straight from the get go. Me + crazy ass alien plot = me enjoying myself.
aliens. YES! robots. YES! beef beef beef! YES! crazy afrikaaaaaan accent in the mix. YES! YES! YES!
District 9 is the shiznit. I loved the new take on alien invasion. The setting was sick (the whole apartheid theme was all too obvious in JoBurg) and the effects were lively. (That's Peter Jackson money right there!) The effects also got me buzzing for Avatar... (Peter Jackson owns Weta Digital, the effects beast behind Avatar's effects...) I feel the plot was lacking in certain areas and at times was a bit unoriginal. but uh-hum: did i mention ALIENS ROBOTS and BEEF BEEF BEEF?!
Those who know me also know I'm a Cloverfield F-A-N-A-T-I-C and this film draws on that filming style. Hand held shooting styles and lots of panicking. nice! It was also good to see some transformation themes which made Peter Jackson's Bad Taste such an epic film. If you still haven't seen Bad Taste go rent it NOW!
Anyway, District 9 is definitely worth watching. Go check it.
Verdict: 78%
