Review of District 9 (2009) by Jessica P — 29 Apr 2013
Pretty good I guess. I really didn't enjoy it that much though. It seemed to drag, and I looked at my watch a lot. Maybe it was because I had to pee. There was also something annoying about how heavy-handed and obvious the moral teaching in this movie was.
No subtlety. Apartheid, BAD! Well, no duh. I don't really think I need an alien analogy to get that. Very typical ending. There is something about Peter Jackson's filmmaking that seems kind of self-indulgent to me.
Like he was saying to himself, "I'm so brilliant!" while he was filming the whole thing. Annoying.
