District 9
I thought I might as well make a blog post about this mainly to make a post…
A better trailer can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6PDlMggROA
The best movie of the year, no doubt about that… I was completely surprised at how good it was.
Most of the movie is a documentary type of thing, it changes on the last half though to more of a movie style. Actually made it better too. This giant mother ship came to Earth and just sat their. They decided to go to Africa, not really sure why. Probably because they wanted to make a point. Anyway, the humans got sick of waiting for a response from the ship, so they crack it open. They then build a slum for the aliens to live in, and won’t let them go home.
It starts out with the main guy who gets promoted. They are going to move these aliens, that they forced to live in the slums. The people of Africa are racist against these aliens, which I found ironic, but what would probably happen. They wanted to move the slum where the aliens were first forced to stay. The main guy is going around having them sign an eviction notice. Well, he stumbles across this canister that sprays him… and I don’t want to ruin the rest for you. I will tell you this though. EXPLOSIONS!!! Very gory movie, bodies exploding like crazy. The best kinds of deaths I have ever seen in a movie…EVER!! It is rated R, which I can see why.
I believe it is based off of a short film…
I love this movie so god damn much. If you can, go see it. It is the most intense movie I have seen…seriously. It may start out strange, but the mood changes. GO SEE IT!!!

Sound like you liked this movie a little bit eh?
No, not at all… I am only promoting it as a joke… LIES!!!! Best movie ever!! I know you will like it shortman!!! Go watch it! Go watch bodies explode!
DAMN YOU WEJ!!! I also saw this movie today and you don’t even tell me your posting this?!?!! TT_TT
YES this movie was GREAT!!! Best alien movie I’ve seen for a long time!!!
I liked D9 a lot, but I certainly wouldn’t call it the best movie I’ve seen this year. Easily best sci-fi movie I have seen this year, but not the best movie. The story line was awesome. I saw the short film like 4 years ago, and when I head D9 would be based on it I couldn’t wait for D9.
For those of you wondering, I liked a few movies better than this one I just saw departures over the weekend ad it was awesome (released in the US this year), Pixar’s Up was pretty awesome (though I saw that with my rather childish best friend so may be biased). Taken and Coraline are the others that come to my mind as better than D9, still awesome movie.
hallo d9 is south afrikan and i am proud of it. we rock in movies.
Lol I guess so since this movie was indeed awesome!
