District 9: Inspired By a Bad Video Rental Night

Rating: 6/10 (30 August 2009)

Once upon a time in Hollywood, a power broker with strong ties to South Africa developed an affinity for story telling after watching The Office TV series. Then they had an eclectic video rental marathon session and watched E.T., Predator, X-Men Origins, Men in Black, WALL-E, The Fly, RoboCop and Alien Nation while eating some bad tuna and prawns that they should have fed their kitty instead. The next morning, after a very restless nights sleep, they conceived and scripted...
District 9.

Having said that, this film is worth a watch... just save yourself some coin and see it at the weekend matinée.
