No kidding. The only time I go to the theaters are when other people are paying for me. I won't pay for that crap.

saw it last night and was definitely a sweet movie, could definitely rock a sequel to it.

shad0ws 08-15-2009 05:26 PM

Awesome movie, just saw it today.

Lances03SVT 08-15-2009 10:07 PM

Thought it was ok but could have been alot better IMO. I felt it was kind of a let down if you want to know the truth.

i have the same feelings about the movie.

Badfish 08-15-2009 11:05 PM

why's that?

stanger00 08-15-2009 11:36 PM

i just thought there would be a lot more action to it, dont get me wrong here, there was a lot of shit and people getting blown up but its just that the story got real dry in a lot of parts. i lost interest during the movie and almost fell asleep. i didnt realize that this was a documentary style movie... looks like there may be a sequel to this movie also. other than that the previews prior to the movie starting were probably the best part! the scorcese film looks like it will be a badass thriller, i cant wait for it to hit the theaters.

that was the first time in a long time since i have left a theater in disappointment...the last time being when i seen "the happening"

You can always BT it 4+ weeks before its release date..

Steeda97 08-16-2009 08:18 AM

I heard it sucked from numerous people.

Switch 08-16-2009 09:26 AM

This review pretty much sums up the way I feel about the movie:

If only the screenwriters (Blomkamp and Terri Tatchell) had invested more energy in developing the film's humanist themes and anti-corporate satire, rather than milking action sequences and an overly sappy subplot with Wikus' wife, the movie could have achieved the literary punch they seemed to be going after.

spike_africa 08-16-2009 11:03 AM

I wanted to see it, but after reading this I think I will wait for the DVD.

NeedACobra 08-16-2009 10:37 PM

fuck buying it on DVD.
Ill just get that shit from redbox for $1.

PColav6 08-16-2009 11:47 PM

I thought it was pretty good.

spike_africa 08-17-2009 06:18 AM

I am gonna spend the cash to see Inglorious Bastards instead.

I'm interested to see how that will be as well, but it didn't get that great of reviews when it was screened at Cannes. I believe Tarantino went back and recut some of the footage though. Should be entertaining though.

I do want to see District 9 though. all the reviews I've seen have all been really good. Every has their own preferences on movies though. That's why critics suck and are worthless.

Yes!! Looks Awesome.

And, I haven't been in a movie theatre mood lately, but I thought about going to see District 9... and yeah, Final Destination. Not going to lie.

The Final Destination looks fuckin' stupid..I mean...all the other ones were, so Im not expecting anything more from this one. Judging from the trailers Ive seen, it looks like a majority people that die, get killed by something flying through the air...

Badfish 08-17-2009 03:37 PM

I'll enjoy getting high and watching people die in oh so hilarious ways. not gonna lie.. :)

rebelyell 08-17-2009 11:07 PM

It got good reviews from these dudes.:p

Steeda21 08-18-2009 06:03 AM

saw it yesterday and i thought it was pretty good but extremely slow in alot of part..people blowing up was pretty cool though

deputy2313 08-23-2009 06:34 PM

i enjoyed them both. District 9 and Inglorious basterds

Deathdiesel 08-23-2009 06:46 PM

District 9 looks really good, but my brother said it sucks. And yeah inglorious bastards does look kool.

x04V6x 08-23-2009 08:19 PM

This movie was badass! it seemed a little long but that was probably because I wasn't intoxicated enough.

4.6 Love 08-24-2009 11:41 PM

I enjoyed watching it. I thought the alien guns were pretty sweet.

garrett01001 08-27-2009 04:03 AM

I would have like District 9 better if it had been 2 hours longer and explained more shit. There better be a sequel or I'ma raise hell

audikillsbmw 08-27-2009 07:19 AM

Saw it yesterday and loved it :). Excellent movie. I was amazed at how long it seemed, considering the fact that it is actually a very short movie. It was also an amusing experience as well, because the the theater we were in was partially flooded from the rain we had. So we weren't able to sit in the 2nd or 3rd row like we usually do. It was interesting though seeing a small lake under the screen..

afterhours 08-27-2009 12:31 PM

this was a great movie....gives us a look at the evils of man, south african aparthied and the real life relocation of a ghetto called district 6 in cape town, south africa.....while entertyaining us with aliens and special effects.

this is not a typical summer action flick, this is much deeper and darker.

peter jackson is a genius....
