IT took me a while to come around and watch
District 9 or D9 as it has come to be known its many zealous fans. Right off
the bat I am going to say that I did myself an injustice by not watching on the
big screen because the movie is such a tour de force. D9 elevates South African
filmmaking to a whole new level that has never been seen before and won’t be
repeated any time soon.
In a nutshell District 9 is a 2009 science
fiction action/thriller film directed by Neill Blomkamp. It was written by
Blomkamp and Terri Tatchell, and produced by Peter Jackson and Carolynne
Cunningham. The film stars Sharlto Copley, Jason Cope, and David James. The
film won the 2010 Saturn Award for Best International Film presented by the
Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films, and was nominated for
four Academy Awards in 2010: Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Visual
Effects, and Best Editing.
