"District 9" is one of science fictions' strongest films with a realistic feeling to its genius story that is a poetic.

Rating: Null/10 (7 July 2014)

Aliens! Film has made audiences reckless over the idea of aliens coming to earth to destroy us. What about Aliens coming to earth for us to destroy them? In futuristic South Africa, multiple districts of aliens are patrolled by humans in order to assure safety. Many aliens came here years ago peacefully, but are not convincing enough to government officials. The government treats them horribly similar to Apartheid in the country years ago. When one government agent (Sharlato Coppley) is exposed to the toxins that cause genetic alteration, he turns into an alien! When forming a relationship with one alien who wants to only take care of her baby and leave the evil government, the two work together in order to help the aliens leave and live in peace. This film has extreme realism to it that make any other sci-fi film look ridiculous. The film interviews its characters to make it feel like a documentary and has perfect visual effects and editing to give visual appeal and keep its genre true to its legacy. Very interesting how the aliens are the victims, and how they are peaceful and a metaphor for discriminated groups such as sexual orientations, genders, or races. Neil Bloomkamp has a brilliant screenplay that isn't cheesy or over the top sci-fi at all. He makes it as realistic as possible which gives it a strong effect and cutting-edge glory. Spectacular visuals are also vital in this film. Gorgeous cinematography that has a very unique looking future and has a genies production design with the space ships. "District" is a unique sci-fi film that is for the intelligent only. This is not at all by means a popcorn film. Instead it is a modern classic of the sci-fi genre, and is the greatest film about aliens of all time.
