The dialog could have been more dynamic

Rating: 2/10 (20 August 2013)

My method for rating this movie will be a statistical-mathematical one. I give District 9 the number of stars equivalent to the number of times the word 'fuck' is said, divided by 500. That should make approximately three stars.
(Incidentally, using this same method on any of the movies in the Fellowship of the Ring trilogy - also directed by Peter Jackson - will yield three stars as well, if it is the word 'Frodo' that is counted and that number is divided by some 500.)
That said, I find Peter Jackson, along with his movies, to be the most over-rated of the 20th and 21st centuries.
