not what you'd imagine

Rating: Null/10 (27 February 2011)

This film's formula of creating a side switching attitude is amazing. I is a film of sympathy.
Avatar is too famous! This film was released first. My bad that the film's director didn't have the credentials in directing Titanic but dammit this film was realistic and logical. Magic isn't real, even in other planets.
District 9 is not a film about aliens invading a major world city or was it even about colonization. It was about immigration. An issue the world especially the U.S. faces today. It is unique. I am tired of something bad happening to New York City or San Francisco. So many films do this. But District 9's aliens chose a city that not everyone knew about. Just some city in Africa.
All in all, the film is powerful. The climax is intense and the ending is sympathetic.
