Instant Sci Fi Classic

Rating: 9/10 (15 August 2009)

Wow. This flick kept me on the edge of my seat. What a fantastic movie!
I have not seen anything this original since the first Matrix. By the middle of the film I knew I was watching a classic science fiction movie. I never knew where the story was going. Truly entertaining with absolutely awesome visual effects, great action, humor both subtle and over the top. IMHO, I don't think any movie released this Summer can come even close to the level of quality District 9 has in regards to a fulfilling movie experience. Not a one.
Amidst all the violence, this movie has a huge E.T. heart that puts it in the same realm as that classic movie. LOVED IT! I can't wait for the sequel.
