Film "District 9" 2009-11-21 15:00:00
Description


Director: Neill Blomkamp (USA/New Zealand, 2009, 113 min; 18A – explicit violence)
“MADLY ORIGINAL & ALTOGETHER EXCITING!” --Entertainment Weekly
FOUR STARS! An extra-terrestrial race has crash-landed on earth and is ghettoized in slum-like conditions in South Africa. Hard-hitting and subversive, this apartheid allegory is a sci-fi thriller with a lot on its mind. –Monday Magazine
Easily one of the sharpest pieces of science fiction to hit a big screen since Star Trek. This focuses on the years after first contact, when aliens have been living as refugees on Earth for more than 20 years. The social satire stands front and centre, ensuring the movie has humour, but the ethical undercurrents are always palpable as we watch one man attempt to relocate the ostracized alien race to a new "facility" run by a morally bankrupt corporation. Smart and dramatically breathless, District 9 is a must-see for any fan of the genre. -- Katherine Monk.
