Once upon a time, I saw the preview for District 9 and said to myself, "That looks uninteresting." I saw the preview several more times and wondered if the movie had a storyline or if it was just random gibberish that some idiots thought they could sell. This taught me a valuable life lesson: Find a producer with an advertising budget above three factoring dollars.

But instead of wasting a post ranting about a preview, I'll tell you that District 9 had a zetta slow introduction. Guy gets sprayed with zetta mysterious liquid, I go "Oh, he turn into alien!" Movie spend more time than necessary pointing out that he's infected until his arm becomes an alien arm, in which case the movie immediately goes from boring to interesting. So also find someone who will hire an editor for your script and make it more celeritous.

But then the story about how humans react to this and the way in which it factors the half-alien's life was entertaining until the credits rolled, although some of my friends said the ending was too depressing. Quite frankly, I am so zetta tired of poeople saying they hate the ending of something or other because it was "too depressing." If a writer can get an emotional reaction from you, I see that as a sign of talent/good thing, not something to carp on. So please... leave District 9's ending alone.

Although there were few action scenes, some of the stuff in the final battle were pretty cool, so if you felt ripped off because you paid to see Transformers 2, District 9 should solve some (but not all) of your action movie woes. Not really a big factor in whether or not you should see District 9, but worth mentioning.

Pretty much everything not mentioned (things like the acting) was really only average, but the script and directing were good enough that any sci-fi fan/nerd or anyone who wants to kill time of ran evening should go see District 9, a very zetta awesome movie.
