Storyline:
In 1982, a massive star ship bearing a bedraggled alien population, nicknamed "The Prawns," appeared over Johannesburg, South Africa. Twenty-eight years later, the initial welcome by the human population has faded. The refugee camp where the aliens were located has deteriorated into a militarized ghetto called District 9, where they are confined and exploited in squalor. In 2010, the munitions corporation, Multi-National United, is contracted to forcibly evict the population with operative Wikus van der Merwe in charge. In this operation, Wikus is exposed to a strange alien chemical and must rely on the help of his only two new 'Prawn' friends.

Is it possible to get subtitles for the aliens with this movie?

I can't help but laugh as I read through these 'Fan Reviews' of District 9. I tend to read the 'bad reviews' first and couldn't help but notice that the individuals giving this movie a bad review appear to be young, uneducated, ignorant, or all of the above. The movie has strong parallels to the REAL LIFE events that took place in Cape Town, South Africa under the apartheid regime in the 70's (District 6). Granted, very few of today's generation will know about the racial atrocities that occurred back then, but the underlying message remains true - even in a blockbuster Sci-Fi film. Good action sequences, intriguing plot, great special effects, and unique character/monster design. This movie is gritty...but then, more often than not, so is the truth.

it seems most reviewers are like "OMG best movie ever" or "it sucked..." of course that doesnt really help most people reading these reviews. so heres my review: District 9 IS one of the best movies of the year, and the best Sci-fi movie to come out in several years. why? because it has every element key to a good movie. amazing acting, story, action, and even cultural significance. it has a good message too really makes you think Sharlto Copley really did an amazing job in this movie. He takes you on an emotional rollercoaster, hes one of those rare actors that really allows you to feel his pain, feel his suffering rather than just acting it. whats even more impressive is that he improvised in most of the movie! The aliens are really well done too. most other movies portray them as these powerful, all knowing creatures, but in this, they are poor, starving, almost worthless creatures. Go see District 9, even if your not a sci-fi fan! if you want to see a well made movie, this

MOVIES REVIEWER

Produced by Peter Jackson, directed by Neill Blomkamp, starring unknown Sharlto Copley - DISTRICT 9(1hr 53min) is based on a short film - 'Alive in Joburg'(directed by Neill Blomkamp, Sharlto Copley, Simon Hansen and Shanon Worley). Thematically heavy, this engaging untypical and non-'Hollywood' movie(an allegory on apartheid) explored race relations, racial discrimination, government cover-ups - government misinformation - media/public relations 'spins', prejudice/hatred, redemption, personal sacrifice, survival, etc. DISTRICT 9 was shot using the RED ONE digital camera - for a higher degree of resolution - 4096 x 2304 - close-up shots were vividly detailed - enhanced the documentary-style of direction for the majority of this stark gritty 'real' movie. Special effects/CGI/make-up = FIRST CLASS!!! Action sequences suck you right in - scenes of 'splatters' will cause you to squirm in your seat. VERDICT: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for sci-fi fans. ACTUAL GRADE: Solid A

Aside from being in the front row of an over-crowded theatre, this was a great movie. Unlike some of the other big blockbusters this summer that pack a lot of punch but have zero story or heart, this film strikes on all fronts. Considering it was made for 1/7th or so of the price tag for "Transformers 2", the special effects in this movie were more than enough. Not only was this one of the most original sci-fi movies to come out in some time, it hits on today's over-involved media outlets and society's missteps when it comes to relationships and how even family isn't just what it used to be. With a cast of no-names, the main character was fantastic at going through the changes involving work, life, friendship, and one you have to see to believe. The "Little One" provided some comic relief throughout and teaches us that we can all "get along". By the end you will be cheering for the unlikely heros and wonder how messed up some people really are. A must see for all movie fans.
