District 9 Movie Review! My First Movie Review so bare with me.

TRAILER
Producer Peter Jackson
Directed by Neill Blomkamp

My Thoughts: Its excellent. The first half is slightly different from the second, but both are above average. I will tell you this, the first 45 minutes are like nothing you've seen before. A nice new spin on Docu-Drama genre thanks to the introduction of a sci-fi element. I believe its scheduled for a August 14th release in the states.

Short synopsis from online:
Aliens peacefully come to Earth but are kept at District 9 where they are forced to work for the community. MNU (Multi-National United) are tasked with discovering the technology behind the alien weapons. When a soldier from MNU is exposed to alien biotechnology, he mutates into a half human and half Non-Human and becomes a wanted man by both sides.

From Wikipedia:

The film is set for an August 13, 2009 release date.[2] It takes place in Johannesburg, South Africa. In the United States, the film is rated R for bloody violence and pervasive language. District 9 is based on Alive in Joburg (video), a short film directed by Neill Blomkamp, Sharlto Copley, Simon Hansen and Shanon Worley. The title is influenced by the real-life District 6 in Cape Town. Copley also portrayed one of the interviewed policemen. The short film is about aliens landing in South Africa and becoming confined to a specific area and forced to work.
