Synopsis:
Unable to return to their planet, the aliens have been living in district 9 for twenty years. Facing the discontent of the general public, they were forced to evict to a new district.
Review:
Expecting the usual science fiction genre, I was very surprised and disturbed to be exposed to the intensity and depth of the show. From the start, we were forced to stand the side of the humans, disapproving the behaviour of the aliens. By the end of the show, I realised the immaturity and ignorance of such a view. It's really thought provoking debating on 'human' rights, scientific ethics and the role of arms. Do we, as fellow humans, have the rights to judge? A show that is clearly not meant for the weak stomach, director Neill Blomkamp has done an extraordinary job in this show.
Rating:
4.5/5
