District 9
Aug. 16th, 2009 04:44 pmSo, forget about starting the Summer with Star Trek (and I didn't even bother with Transformers); I'm just glad to be finishing it with District 9.
"It’s a smart, socially conscious science-fiction film that requires audience attention....It's also incredibly dark and somewhat depressing and poetic at the same time."
Wow; Now, THAT is science fiction. I was impressed.

*includes quotes and links to multiple reviews and an embedded video of the director's original short film, ALIVE IN JOBURG.
a not quite random exercise note: 6.5 mile walk (to and from the theatre; I like "bribing" myself with midwalk rewards sometimes.)
