Earthlings, don't miss this film!

Rating: 8/10 (24 September 2009)

I have read many critiques about this movie and let me say when it comes to saying whether this movie is great or not it could just easily be both. Prepare to watch a 'LOVE IT' or 'HATE IT' movie.
In my opinion this was another great sci-fi. A superb production by Peter Jackson with great direction that shows the movie as if it was a National Geographic documentary but it never stops being a real movie.
There isn't just action and amazing, seriously amazing special effects, 'District 9' has an interesting script more realistic than many sci-fi scripts I've seen.
We are not talking about a Hollywood super sci-fi production like 'Transformers' or 'Star Trek', however when it comes to entertaining the public and keeping you at the edge of the seat 'District 9' has nothing to envy those films.
It is not an action movie where everything you see is human fighting aliens non stop and a blood shed, quite the contrary there is a lot of interesting dialog and realistic scenarios, nonetheless you will see some mayor action and very brutal combat. I personally loved the equilibrium between good action scenes but also dialog and quality.
The acting is not one of the primary good points of the film, yet Sharlto Copley (main guy) did a pretty good job for a man that is not commonly scene on screen.
I gave this film a well deserved 8 stars and frankly I recommend anyone to watch it and I would certainly watch this twice.
