One of the best movies I've ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (3 September 2009)

I watch a lot of movies and I really enjoy a good movie, but I'm quite critical of lame predictable, boring typical Hollywood plots etc. So I'm known to be a lot harsher on movies than my friends.
I've only ever given one other movie a 10/10, and that is Samsara (very diff genre), there might be others but I'm just including that to show that in hundreds or thousands of movies, I've given a 10/10 probably twice.
The movie is just brilliant, perfect. There was not one part which was badly made, or they could have done better. Its a masterpiece. Its extremely original, the characters are brilliant, the aliens are brilliant. The CGI is thrilling and brilliant. I'm really amazed. This movie is not just money thrown at crap like most big budget action movies.
If there is a sequel, I really hope they have a plot as solid as this before they make it. Sequels are generally a disgrace to the original.
I'm also really impressed with this as a South African movie. So far SA movies have been at best decent or semi-decent. 4-6 out of 10. I really hope its a catalyst for the SA film industry. I'm sick of seeing the big Hollywood actors playing lame characters in predictable roles and overused themes.
Forget everything you've read, expect nothing, then go see it.
