District 9

I didn't like District 9. First of all it was just probably too gruesome for me. Anything with someone's fingernails falling off and I'm done! But then there was brain matter splattering on the camera every two seconds near the end. Gross, gross, gross!

Speaking of camera, it looked like the cinematographer was having a lot of fun. There was lots of usage of security/documentary/news camera. Oh and some sort of "gun cam." It was interesting, fun. But if we're always being "watched" why did the film feel so secluded? I feel like everyone evil was running around in this one little place and no one in the outside world said anything. That's another thing, everyone was so evil. Even down to the white guy evil military.

Its the Apartheid meets Independence Day and a dash of The Fly...and then after an hour and a half it turns into Transformers.

  1. Agreed. It breaks POV far too many times for me to officially like it :)
