Worth watching but Prawns might be offended.

I went to see District 9 yesterday. It was not what I expected, but that is a good thing nowadays. When just about every movie twist and turn has been done before, it's nice to be surprised. My only complaint about this movie was that they did not do everything that they could have done with it. It should have been 4 hours long or split up into two separate movies. They could have made a series out of it and blew a lot of the garbage out of the water that is being shown on prime time TV.
Overall I really enjoyed the story and the characters. I left the theater feeling like I got my money's worth for the movie. I'll watch it again when it comes out on DVD for sure.
