  • only gore , pure bullshit...

  • @comissairevanloc you didnt even fucking understand the movie fucktard

  • @falcont2t fuck your family nigger

  • @comissairevanloc fuck you you retarded asshole

  • A bery nice and sad movie but it sucks that there was no end that they did kill all the humans :P

  • i lov district 9 and its waaay better than that dumb avatar movie!!!!! =P

  • @District9Rox There both cool.

  • this film is just insanly awsume

  • is it just me or are they kinda cute in a sad way?

  • omg i saw the movie 10/10, it realy made me sad at the end :(

  • When I saw this trailer in the movies for the first time I literally had the biggest FILMGASM evaaaaar !!

  • this is probably the best film of the decade...

  • One of my all time favorites.

  • fail music

  • this movie needs way more ATTENTION!

    I cant remember this has been in the cinemas across europe last year...

    I wasn´t expecting that! That was ....great.

  • Oh. I thought their ship ran out of fuel and they couldnt leave, or they had to where to go. I didnt know the goverment just didnt want them to leave.

  • @AntiVaccine GTFO nobody cares!

  • It's great sci-fi, because it borrows so heavily on reality. The backdrop really is nothing but the horrors of apartheid, except black and white now brotherly gang up on insectoid. Sure, it provides mindless action, but the message is deep and profound and this movie will also satisfy people looking for more than just a good flick.

  • SHARLTO COPLEY IS ONE THE BEST ACTORS EVER!

  • incredible movie! unique, powerful, intelligent....just amazing

  • @ami-traitor1990, if your statement was intended similar to KiribiKiribi stating District 9 was fantastic because the actors were unknown here and that gave it authenticity, well, I will retract my statement..otherwise it still holds..

  • ami-traitor1990, please explain, and all you people that gave it a thumbs up, can suck my balls! Go back to your fucking countries and I will help you..get the fuck out now! Before it's too late..you make me fucking puke!

  • This movie was a very pleasant surprise, didnt know it till i saw it, definately among my favourite titles of all time this one. Superb, the only word i can think of to describe this movie.

  • Without a doubt one of the greatest sci-fi films in recent memory.

  • ever single element of the production direction, and execution of this films development i aplaud with ever bit of respect inmy body, the francisement and advertisement and the film itself are just an absolutely extrodinary triumph in the history of cinema, truly one of the finest films to be releast in recent years

  • The aliens are SQUISHY!!!!!!

  • movii waas gr8 n it showd how we as humans act when encountered by anything. For as long as we've been here we have always had to seperate ourselves from other organisms.

  • Yes, you don't get the point. This is the best movie. It look real. I felt like I saw a breaking news or something like that.

    THE BEST MOVIE 2009

  • @blueTZIN youve got a bad taste in movies than :P

  • this is the best trailer in the history, the muvie it is great but the trailer it is even better

  • Great movie with a very good ending. I was worried because so many of these "shorts turned hollywood" have failed (ie "9", great short, rediculous ending)

    The trailers I felt were decieving, didn't expect the movie that I watched, but pleasantly surprised, and they managed to make that Agent a decent guy in the (very) end.... seems like this was just a set up for another movie though...

    They'll be back!

  • is it just me, or is there a lot of trailer exclusive shots here?

  • this spam is getting very annoying

  • @williguapo1 than GTFO

  • The spam is getting out of control now,

  • i saw this movie today. its amazing but has a weird ending

  • The ending WAS GREAT!

  • At the scene where the guys were interrogating the alien, do the humans even understand their languages? There so fucking stupid, guys asking questions that go from one topic to the other. Sorry, its just that logic is kicking into me too hard. But seriously, do the guys in this movie understand them?

  • Some humans do, but only the ones that deal with them on a daily basis.

    Like the people that work for the government program that is "Suppose" to take care of them, and set up district 9..

  • The tune on the background is the same as one for the Solaris movie...

  • of course humans want their weapons...... we are so violent

  • when is the movie coming on dvd?

  • December 22nd I believe.

  • why didn't they just let the aliens leave if they say they mean no harm and want to go home

  • Bcs I saw that the guy that interwieved the alien said:''How do u'r weapons work ?''

    That is the fact that we the humans are a horrible and a violent species.

  • Humans wanted their weapons !

  • Those fookin Prawns!

  • That's because you did not understand the movie.

    For you the movie was just about men fighting aliens.

    For people that look at it as an intelligent way of critising human beings: their recurrent behaviour of diferentiating one another; making life impossible for those that are different; the micro disfunction socities that strive in these enviroments (the hardcore gangs, etc..):

    the movie is brillieant.

    The movie has refugee camps and South African Apartaid written all over it.

  • says the guy who types brilliant as brilleant.

  • @ertreri I second that big time!!! cheers mate

  • @ertreri Dude you're not intelligent for seeing the satire in the movie about xenophobia, violence, poverty. Anybody could have gotten that. District 9 was directly inspired by the events that occured in District 6. Neill Blomkamp's true underlying message was exposing the things that happened in District 6 which was almost identical to what happened in district 9. The chilling thing about this movie is not how different the aliens were, but rather how eerily reminiscent they were of ourselves.

  • This scene doesn't appear in the movie right? Because I saw the movie but only saw this scene in the trailer, must have been deleted.

  • yup, but if you followed the viral marketing campaign; it's referenced by Christopher in his blog way before what happens in the movie.

  • guess I didn't understand the south african or new zealand accent all the time then ^^

  • That virus (H1N1) is a tipe of flu, you die if you´re weak. The regular flu would kill you anyways, is not "that" letal.

    I´m from Argentina and we lived trough the paranoia. Don´t belive it brother. The vaccine is a lie, maybe the same people who made it invented this H1N1 virus.

  • FOOK!

  • The music at the beginning is from the score for Solaris by Cliff Martinez, "Don't Blow It". Excellent soundtrack too.

  • What piece of music is used at the beginning? I recognize it.

  • this was made for $30 million and looks like a $100 mil picture... just goes to show you that a big budget does not a great movie make.

    on a side note, when does this come out on dvd?

  • some time in november, december?

  • "this was made for $30 million and looks like a $100 "

    yes well, that just prooves that ditching famous actors for good actors without a name pays off. That is the only reason why see such a return on investment.

    You can not make a 30 million flick with 10 million per head actors.

    Many movies hire Brad Pitt plus 6 or seven other huge payment actors. Then Include all the equiment, personell operting camers and whatever. how can you make it cheap?

  • With money you just get more shit, that is what Hollywood is all about. Look how 2012 is done, big money, big shit, that movie is just pathetic, like is the Transformers 2.

  • But sometimes hollywood does great shit with the money they invest.

    As far as Special Effect movies are concerned: I liked District 9 immensly. For me this movie was pure genious. It is not often one finds a movie packed with action and special effects, with any message behind it. THe so called, por-corn flicks. (I don't mind the pop-corns though)

    I liked Atonement for example. Hollywood produces a lot of crapy movies. But a considerable amount of good ones 2.

  • District 9 is GOOD no doubt, and for that amount of money, it's just better. It shows that money does not make it better, the story does!

    D9 is perhaps the only movie made out of aliens and has a point. This is something new, something we did not expect, that's why it is so genious!

  • @suharinos actually, i reckon it was a very good movie, but you are right about how you don't need big bucks for a good movie.

  • Great movie

    and f****g MNU ^ ^

  • It's time for you to wake up to the reality from the dreamworld of reptilians. I'm gonna take my H1N1-vaccine, and I don't really care whether you take yours or not.. Probably it would be good for the genepool if you don't take it and die away.

  • The alins look like Zoidberg

  • Amazing movie.

  • i just saw this movie last night and it would seem like a movie where the aliens just kill everyone and then take over the world, its pretty much a movie representing refugees and immagrants, and a tale of friendship in a way. Unfortuanitly the ending is really sad im not giving anything away though... i felt really bad for the main character at the end...

  • yea, let's hope in 3 years district 10 comes out and we can see if CJ made it.

  • Not much to censor in this trailer, LOL

  • Very cool weapon and splatter scene effects. Lots of plot holes and poor character development. Typical Hollywood formula. Watch an independent film (like the film short this was based on).

  • no, it wasn't. and that's a disaster. the aspect of them being kept on earth involuntarily is completely missing. a huge disappointment, changes the point of the movie completely!

  • it sucks that interogation scene wasnt in the movie :(

  • it wasnt? really?

  • yes indeed that scene was made more for the trailer

  • its funny how minoitys get a new perspective on racism when they are the weathiest group i the country. indians in britain are iche than whites, so its kinda of had for you to evn understand what racism is. if you have been called funny names, thats the just the surface of racism. institutionalised racism is the pob which have prob never encountered. dont waste your time replying, with some sef ighteous explanation fo your ignorance, cos we no you are ignorant

  • @haleyboy. Knew there was more to him. Maybe that explains why he freezes at the bit in the MNU labs. You can tell there was more to CJ. cheers mate. Knew I was right.

  • yeh the cut half the film cus the nigerians were complaining about it bein harsh to dem and shit wtf the movies is band in nigeria oh its were it was filmed btw

  • i heard they kick of arms aswell....interesting

  • Why did they make the first half of the film so deliberately ridiculous and stupid, people in the cinema were laughing at how bad it was. it was so bad to begin with it must have been deliberate, why? It just meant the film had a huge mountain to climb in order to get back credibility with the audience. It was the strangest film I have seen for a long time, too many unanswered questions in the plot for me, bizaar.

  • I thought it was pretty good

  • Anyone else reckon that the prawn being interrogated is Christopher Johnson?

  • it is cause christopher johnson is the captain

  • can anyone tell me what the font name is of the D-9 title????

  • The alien interrogation scene is not part of the movie. I wonder why..

  • it would give the plot away mabye

    or it would make the film seem better

  • i was wonder too!! i think is becuase it shows in the human mind, they dont give a fuck if they are here in peace or need help, they only want to obtain their technology and how to use it to their own evil purpose!!

  • good movie

  • what song is this pwease tell me

  • I saw the censored version in the cinema previews and i thought it made the film more mysterious. The blurred aliens face during the interview really added to the documentary feel. Then i thought the uncensored version ruined the mystery

  • apartheid innit...

  • loved this film, a good breath of fresh air into the sci-fi genre. People keep saying the first 20 mins was boring, but I loved getting scraps of information and trying to piece them together. Ah well.

  • :< poor thing!!! that alien has a sad D: i want to cuddle him he is so sweet :<

  • I honestly can't remember the last time I saw a film and wanted to see it again the second I left the theatre.

    Such an outstanding piece of film.

  • bst movie ever

  • This movie is the best I've seen in my life. It completely overshadows any other, even a few classics. A must see and a must buy for anyone with a taste for a blend of realism and sci-fi. 10/10

  • fantastic movie

  • this movie make a good prediction of what will happen if 'they' are coming here.

    i like this movie.

  • if this was set in New York, Washington or any other US city, with some famous Hollywood celebrities like Tom Cruise or Matt Damon or John Travolta, the film would suck! Being set in Johanesburg in virtually unknown actors gives it authenticity and makes it great!

  • at last movie with aliens which don't choose NY to land..... hahahha.

  • hahahahahaahahahaha +1 that's pretty much a good point to refer to... :D

  • I would highly recommend seeing this movie if you are interested in anything futuristic or sci-fi or violent exploding bodies.

    One of the best movies I've seen in theaters in awhile.

  • Will do. I guess I will have to wait for the DVD.

  • when the DVD is for sale?

  • This is one of the best Sci-Fi movies i have ever watched.

  • Yes, it was great.

  • wow the scene where they questioned that alien wasn't in the movie. fucking awesome tho

  • i would like to see the interview too and how it ends...

  • the movie was awesome! reminded me very much of Half-life so if you like the game you'll love this one!

  • It's not really much like half life except the gravity gun tbh.

  • there is no gravety gun in half life

  • @DurellSama i think he confused it with gmod, which does have a gravity gun

  • @ebrowne369 well i think he confused it with half life 2

  • This movie was incredible.

  • think movie looks great and realistic coz its not full of americans

  • lol +1!!!

  • omg aliens are treated like immigrants. well the meaning of the word alien was never restricted to extra-terrestrials anyway

  • The perfect sequel would start with documentary style interviews om a human refugee camp after a devasting war with the aliens.

  • I was sad to see that interview scene not make it to the movie.

  • is Alien Nation but best effects thats all, still like long life to SiFi

  • this was the perfect moviee;)

  • wot u on about trixievalcyn it aint original theyv just basically made a movie about apartheid. but replaced blacks with aliens.

  • I understand and recognize that they illuminated racism, that can't be overlooked. But you can't tell me you have ever seen any one else make a similar movie. That is the definition of original.

  • This movie is very simmilar to the movie Alien Nation which is a movie about aliens coming to earth and living among us.

  • I'm shocked when I see some peeps saying they hated this or thought it was boring. I thought it was amazing, touching, brilliant, and completely original. I respect other peeps opinions, but jeez, compared to any other sci fi movie since like Aliens.. this is amazing stuff. Good work.

  • I think this movie is made to show the WORLD RACISM.....

  • Ditto, I thought it was brilliant!!!!

  • District 10, it was already introduced in the show. District 10 is the new living area.

  • I don't see anything different in this trailer from the others. Plus, I seen District 9, it's one of the best new creative science fiction movies in decades. I strongly suggest you see it, but not with your kids!

  • this movie made me feel so sad...i loved it ;), i hope there is a sequel

  • No....there will not be

  • it has been stated that their will be a possible sequel in the future

  • if you listen real close they speak english!

  • did the alien interview get deleted from the movie?

  • the alien interview happened months before the movie, its when theyre interviewing christopher because of his site "MNU spreads lies"

  • thx for telling me.... i went on that site, they go the distance to advertise this movie, really good effort!

  • yea

  • I think that was made just for marketing purposes. It may have been deleted, though.

  • Who here thinks Wikus will decide to not turn human? His reputation around the world has been tainted, he couldn't go back to a normal life. Perhaps his Wife will either die or also go threw the transformation, and they will start a new life on the alien planet.

  • i really doubt that, you see sonograms (potential baby) on the mirror when wikus wife speaks.

  • I think there will be a chance for diplomacy because of Wikus. Christopher will remember that there are some decent humans, but I think they will be soldiers with Christopher. You saw how fast he made a bomb to escape? These beings are war like...I'm looking forward to District 10

  • Yeah 4 real, that part of the interview was not in the movie... i wonder why? it was cool.

  • Fuck you! the ending was the shit!

  • best movie of 2009... I only wish the last mercenary in the end died a far more painful death that just having his head ripped off.

  • I hope they come up with a sequel.... WAR TIME....

  • yeaup! when Christopher come's back in three years..:)

    WAR TIME..

  • i think he is smarter than that, i think he would suggest an agressive rescue mission. if they do make it war, i think the movie will go down hill with pure mindless action like TF and no storytelling like District 9.

  • C'mon its Peter Jackson were talking about here, whatever he and Blomkamp can whip up for District 10, you know its gonna be a good story.

  • weeeellll after seeing it for a second time. i started to think about some posibilitys, they might pull it off dude.

  • Best Alien Movie EVER!!!! PERIOD.

  • the best movie ive seen in a long time

  • Over time it should be relatively easy to work out basic words on context alone, and the language could be worked out from there. And the aliens have been on earth for 27 years so it's not as if they just turned up and were able to have conversations. You're just nitpicking.

  • No, that's not a flaw. After 20 years they've decoded each other's languages.

  • ok cool

  • best movie of 2009 so far bar none. Just watched it and it rocked my wee socks :)

  • this movie is so F'n awesome.

  • fuckin awesome movie

  • it was ....... AWESOME

  • this is one of the best movies i have seen for a sci-fi alien movie its really quite deep

  • this movie was a 100/10

    but they made the humans look like assholes not helping them!!

  • You actually think our government would try to help them?

  • every film has a message i guess or not

  • it "uncensored" as in they don't censore the prauns face....stupid, but awesome movie

  • christopher johnson will come back for the sequel in three years, he promised! I cant fuckin wait, this movie was sic!

  • Watch Living in Joburg.

    its what this is based off of.

    cant wait for this. (sept 9th in uk)

  • I saw this yesterday was so entertaining

  • Crustaceans
