Sci-Fi is my preferred genre, be it literature or movies. And while I adore movies like Soylent Green, Fahrenheit 451, Solaris ( the Russian version of course) and Terminator 1&2, District 9 takes the proverbial cake. It works on all levels: great plot, great acting and great black humour. Splendid! OK, I wanted to leave a short summary and I've been just informed that it doesn't contain enough lines of text, so here is my advise if you like sci-fi: you've got to see it. The opening scene is so realistic, that some of my friends that saw the trailer called me up and asked if I had seen the news, because there are strange things happening in South-Africa.
