    This is the thinking man (or woman's) Transformers. Great action sequences, but focuses mostly on plot/storyline and character development. The movie is believable, which adds to the feeling of realism and is essential to hook the viewer in. The slow start, which some criticise, is also important to set up the story element! Would highly recommend seeing this movie...

    First off, this movie is not for everyone. It's long and isn't flashy or over the top like Transformers. What it is, is realistic. It's like most of the film's done by M.Night Shyamalan, it leans heavily towards plot more than action to keep you entertained. Definitely a movie for the thinker. Excellent plot, great acting, leaves you wanting more. 5 stars. Plus, that scene with the exoskeleton kicked ass.

    Best film of the summer - smart, funny weird, edgy satire. Looks like it cost three times its actual budget. Oscar® doesn't care much for SF, but District 9 deserves consideration on a number of fronts.

    Very good. A new twist on the "Alien Invasion" movie. Has some great special effects, and the allegory to aparthied in South Africa is unique. Also just a great shoot-em-up sci-fi film.
