Holy Hell, go see District 9 now! The wife and I went to see it this past weekend and wow, just wow. It is brutal, intense, completely engrossing, and even has a message. If you are easily grossed out, this one may not be for you, but if you can get past that aspect of the film it really is great. I don’t want to go into what it’s about here. I think part of the awesomeness is going in completely unprepared. But if you really want to know more, you should check out Neill Blomkamp’s short film that inspired it called Alive in Joburg (you can probably find it on youtube). Also, after seeing it, these wired articles/videos are pretty cool stuff as well.
