    "Josh Wolk's Pop Culture Club talks 'District 9': I'll be damned, good action movies are possible!"http://popwatch.ew.com/2009/08/20/josh-wolk-pop-culture-club-district-9/?xid=rss-movies-%27District+9%27%3A+Where+does+it+rank%3F
    ""District 9" is a wallop of a film that is also one of the year's very best films. It perfectly presents the balance of human emotions and CGI mastery. The acting is top notch and believable, and the characters are so realistically presented; even the protagonist is deeply flawed, and during some scenes I wonder who should I root for."http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1136608/
    "The film style was very much documentary like with lots of sound byte style comments settings the scenes and giving commentary all through the film. These in my opinion took it from being what could have been just another "aliens vs humans" film and elevated into the realms of social commentary. The aliens are presented almost as animals yet you rapidly start to sympathize with them and tune into their desperation."http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1136608/usercomments
    "The first science fiction masterpiece for years"http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1136608/usercomments
    "Instead of running around and shrieking, this story posits an even more believable reaction to an alien invasion --- a bureaucratic one."http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/district_9/
    "Gross but fascinating ... it held my attention from start to finish."http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/district_9/articles/1838282/gross_but_fascinating_it_held_my_attention_from_start_to_finish
