district Nine sets a new standard of brilliance

Rating: 10/10 (5 October 2009)

Sharlto Copley reminds of a young Robert De Niro in this minimalistic masterpiece. Peter Jackson must have been amazed and so excited when he read this brilliant script by Neill Blomkamp (who normally works as an animator effects man)& Teri Tatchell.Movies like this only come once upon a long long time. I had to watch it several times to know what makes this movie so special. in the beginning you think "oh no another fake documentary, but the unique script and great play of the actors, makes it so divine to watch.And which would be a greater place for this futuristic mythology to take place, than Johannesburg. Hope the sequel will match up to this special art piece.
