I really dont know what to say about this movie. I dont even know if i should recommend people to go see it because I have never seen anything like it before.

The special Effects are really well done.

As for everything else.... you just need to see for yourself.

I edited the title to something more fitting.

What do you mean you don't know if you should recommend people to go see it?

Did you like it?

I heard that it's quite different from all of the movies out there.

Where'd you see it? MT?

Cjruckus · Postby **Cjruckus** » August 16th, 2009, 12:11 am

Yeah saw it in MT. Screen 3 to be exact.

You just need to go see the film without knowing anything about it.

The reason I am skeptical about sending people to see it is because you really need like enjoy movies to watch something like this.The more I think about the film the more I want to see it again. At first i just felt like "wtf?" but now that it has set in, it kinda deserves a second viewing.

Typical Trini Mentality would be like "DAIS sheit!" simply because this is the same population that enjoys the Matrix Trilogy and considers it art.

^ Matrix IS art!

Wachowski Bros created the pinnacle of cult classics when they made that.

Since seeing The Matrix in 1999 I came out the cinema thinking WTF! what a mind job!
I've been like a junkie ever since looking for the next movie to give me the thrill of that first hit. 300 was close, LOTR was just a spectacular production but still no brain orgasm like The Matrix.

Ever since I saw the District 9 teaser I've been hoping this is my first time all over again.

I know, it's sad

district 9 has been getting rave reviews from critics and viewers alike in the US, being hailed as "A late summer sleeper that puts most of Hollywood to shame."

fack you matrix one was great

but i have to agree on this-was-not-a-vin-diesel-action-packed-senseless-special-effects-bull-sh-it so the movie wasn't good

Matrix in Globe was pretty hard core, im not gonna lie, it was good, but the other 2 were garbage... they were trying to be a cross between Tarantino Dialogue and John Woo Action, it just didnt work. Then super obvious symbolism, it just was a trainwreck.

buzz · Postby **buzz** » August 16th, 2009, 12:37 am

well yeah it went downhill for the other 2 parts

LOL nah i cool being another muslim man pet ... I go pass , my pop's might fight u on tht position lol

I got a 19th deadline so no can do ..

pios quit talking abt u're fren like tht all he need is some eye straightener and he good as new !

The point of a good movie is to keep u enraptured and matrix just didn't cut it for me ..

sMASH · Postby **sMASH** » August 16th, 2009, 12:50 am

the third matrix was like if they realized dat the plot was not adding well so they did a distract with the fighting.. matrix was one of the best movies ever, but sequels failed in comparison.

i was never able to follow the borne trilogy well. too fast paced

Just came from seeing it

damn good, loved it

I was happy it was for once it was set not in an American city with a bunch of yanks running around.

S.Africa was a suitable setting considering their history.

District 9 is a great movie. Saw it last night at screen 3 at MT. Won't mind seeing it again though. WARNING!! NOT FOR THE SHALLOW MINDED.

Oleander · Postby **Oleander** » August 16th, 2009, 8:04 am

^^ yup.. that why the cuople that was making out one seat away had to leave in the middle of the movie... I didn't realise ppl still do that... I can't wait for schoot to re-open :evil:

I still am kinda shocked by this movie... I really didn't expect the it to be like that. Even the location.. waw.. I want to see it again..

Who is the man who think about catfood? :shock:

Visual effects were mind blowing...for a low budget film, they pull it off very well.

Syberfraggle · Postby **Syberfraggle** » August 16th, 2009, 11:20 am

Saw it last night also...excellent movie..not a hint of hollywood here jus great! also ... gotta love how those South africans cuss

Humes · Postby **Humes** » August 16th, 2009, 12:04 pm

I read that the visual effects might have cost another film production three times as much. Peter Jackson got Weta to do it for a fraction of the cost to support Blomkamp, who he's bringing up as something of a protege.

civic minded · Postby **civic minded** » August 16th, 2009, 8:37 pm

saw it last nite in MT - really good movie - fav. part is how the young prawn remote activate the robot and it decimated the gang members - that was really frikkin awesome.

I noticed that it rated PG14 - yet there is graphic violence and cursing - supposed to be R- rated.

innovative audio · Postby **innovative audio** » August 17th, 2009, 3:09 am

its like transformers meet war of the world meet independence day.............thats what it looks like, i've only seen the trailer.... peter jackson too eh.... buh i will go see it
