district 9

Hey guys,

Time for another round of me telling you what to see and do. This post is about the recent the new movie district 9. I have to admit I have been wanting to see this movie since the first teaser. I built up so many expectations for this effort by director Neill Blomkamp. I wanted to see how he would use his work on stargate, and translate it into this movie.
First off, I would like to say this movie does not disappoint. I went in believing it to be a straight forward aliens vs. humans movie. BOY WAS I WRONG. This movie combines the action and charisma of "Independence Day", the moving race war feel of "last king of scotland", and the reality of "cloverfield" (this movie should never be related to that terrible excuse for a monster movie)
The visual effects added to the hand cam footage really set the movie off for me. I really appreciated how everything was so seamlessly combined. The only, and I mean only, thing that I found sub par..............nope nothing. : )

sound effects=10
visual effects and integration=10
script=10
movie=10


see it!
