the racism crap in this overblown and stupid, and the fact that a gang with a few AK-47's are able to conceal this phenomina for themselves is rediculous. And that fact that the leader of this gang tried to eat the guy's hand WAS SO STUPID. Terrible movie, terrible acting, bad camera angles, and the CGI looked like garbage.

Bad CGI? You could level every opinion against that movie you want, but you can't deny that the CGI insane.

I agree with you on every point except the CGI. That aspect was nearly flawless. To bad pretty explosions doesn't win over my heart like most people apparently....

You act like the gang actually tried to conceal anything... they didn't. The military didn't really care, no one could use the weapons.

Why is it stupid? Because it makes sense? Would you risk life/limb/money for something you knew was worthless to absolutely everyone?

And if you guys think this film has any plot holes, tell me and I will help you out. You really have to pay attention to the details... maybe watching it twice will answer your questions.

I dont use my mouth to type. The fact that the bug boss suck the brains of the humans to gain information is So ST00P!D, and also why didnt they just nuked the planet or bombarded them with bombs just like the plane did? its so st00pid!!! the acting was horrible!! The camera man was just standing there when the bugs were approaching....ofcourse he'll die...he was so st00pid.

It was a terrible story, and the main character's girlfriend and father were pointless, all the talks on the cellphone were emotionless. You felt nothing

I only believe that to be true if you have the emotional range of a rock. The man was bawling his eyes out every time. Take your cubes and leave! You're not wanted here!

The girlfriend and father had NO point in the movie, and his crying was waaaaay overdramatic for characters who have not been at all developed. His girlfriend was an a$$hole

Really? The action scenes had me on the edge of my seat because I actually cared about the characters. The story and the way it was told was very unique. At times, the film had an independent, genuine feel to it. And the emotional expressions expressed in the alien's faces were stunning.

...they absolutely had a point. His girlfriend was the reason he wanted to live and it's not like the entire movie wasn't character building Wikus (or was it...), and the evil father was obviously the true antagonist.

I didn't like the Matrix. It was innovative in terms of special effects, but that was about it. The Matrix was more like a portfolio of new special effect techniques. The action scenes were not exciting because I had no emotional connection with the characters.

I strongly disagree with that statement.

The dialogue was tacky and boring. What's the point of having such awesome visual effects and martial arts fights if you don't give a damn about any of the characters? All of the characters seem so detached and emotionless that you have to wonder why they chose that style of acting for their actors.. The humans in the movie show about as much emotional depth as the machines.

I was prepared to write a serious reply explaining why District 9 was a diamond found in the recently offensively stale genre known as Sci Fi... then it occured to me that the OP must be a young kid who knows nothing about films as an artform: let alone a means to tell a story.

Honestly people "I dun liek it" is not a valid argument. Let it be known.
