I saw this last night. It was awesome! The first 10 mins I was like... ummm is this supposed to be a joke or something? It really seemed like a Comedy/SciFi but then 20mins in it just got great and it was perfectly done from there on in!
Amazing directing! Amazing feel! Really brought u in the movie! I love this kind of movie! Really recommend it!
4 out of 5

IMO it is the best movie of the year and the only one with heart. I loved it from start to finished and couldn't believe that this was made with only a 30 million dollar budget! I will post a spoiler review soon.

Well Im sure he has, he's like 40 years old ;D These guys just don't walk into Hollywood sets with no acting experience. He was prolly doing plays for 20 years. But yea he was awesome because he made you think he'd be a typical dork scientist and then really gave a lot of depth to the performance.
Definitely not the best movie of the year IMO but has to be in top 5. 2009 was the year for movies. All the greats came out this year and there's still more that may top this. But yea top 5 for sure.

Well I had mixed feelings about the trailer. It looked awesome but I didn't really...get it. Now that everyone has written that its amazing and whatnot I might as well see it. I dcan tpromise to see it in theaters, but I will see it one way or another.

Yes, very good movie. Right up my alley. Actually for once I am hoping for a sequel. 4/5

The apparent premise is what caught my eye when I saw the trailer. Haven't seen the movie yet so I could be off, but I guess aliens crashland on earth and set up their own district/territory. Looked like a cool premise, I'll be seein this soon.

I think its more that the humans kind of sent them to District 9, kind of like we did with the Native Americans and reservations, and then the humans start exploiting the aliens. That's the sense I get from it.

I think Star Trek was better but this is def up there. I know this was the year for all the greats in movies. I just cant remember what came out this year.

Yes, very good movie. Right up my alley. Actually for once I am hoping for a sequel. 4/5 Peter Jackson presents the long-awaited sequel to the hit "District 9". The aliens are back, and this time they've brought a killing machine - SYLVESTOR STALONE! All of this in the new thriler....."DISTRICT 10!"

Amazing to think this was done with a significantly smaller budget than other films. Filmmakers should take notes.

I finally got around to seeing this and I loved it.
For a modestly budgeted film, it was very professionally done.
It isn't surprising that it was nominated for four Oscars.
