Ok, I finally saw District 9 last night. I’ll get around to my full review and video review tomorrow, but for now here are my quick thoughts:
1) This is a VERY good movie
2) This is not the masterpiece some people are making it out to be though
3) Horrible unidimensional “bad guys” with absolutely nothing to them whatsoever (one of my big pet peeves)
4) Jaw dropping visual effects. Best I’ve seen in a LONG time. Amazing.
5) A few Michael Bay type action sequences (that’s a good thing, since it’s the one thing Bay really knows)
6) A few things were just far too “convenient” for the sake of the story
7) Brilliant performance by the lead character. I really bought into the guy.
More later.
