I rarely give full marks for movies that I go and see, but District 9 is an exception. I went to see this movie recently, and haven't stopped thinking about it!
Yes it is another human vs. alien movie, but with a difference. You get drawn into the story right from the off, and you really get thinking about how we treat different people/species!
The special effects are amazing, and the acting is pretty good too. I heard that the lead actor (Sharlto Copley) had never acted before! I'm looking forward to see what he acts in next.
The length of the movie was perfect. Not too long, and I never felt the story was being "dragged out".
This is really one of those movies you have to go and see. I'd happily go and see it again for the second time.
