Additional Information
Director Neill Blomkamp teams with producer Peter Jackson (LORD OF THE RINGS) for this tale of extraterrestrial refugees stuck in contemporary South Africa. It's been 28 years since the aliens made first contact, but there was never any attack from the skies, nor any profound technological revelation capable of advancing our society. Instead, the aliens were treated as refugees. They were the last of their kind, and in order to accommodate them, the government of South Africa set up a makeshift home in District 9 as politicians and world leaders debated how to handle the situation. As the humans begin to grow wary of the unwelcome intruders, a private company called Multi-National United (MNU) is assigned the task of controlling the aliens. But MNU is less interested in the aliens' welfare than attempting to understand how their weaponry works. Should they manage to make that breakthrough, they will receive tremendous profits to fund their research. Unfortunately, the highly advanced weaponry requires alien DNA in order to be activated. When MNU field operative Wikus van der Merwe (Sharlto Copley) is exposed to biotechnology that causes his DNA to mutate, the tensions between the aliens and the humans intensifies. Wikus is the key to unlocking the alien's technology, and he quickly becomes the most wanted man on the planet. Ostracized and isolated, Wikus retreats to District 9 in a desperate bid to shake his dogged pursuers.
Reviews
Premiere - A great-looking and smart film. It has enough action, wonder, depth, and action to keep any fan of the genre happy. The sociological undertones here are fascinating as well., Los Angeles Times - In a good summer, there's usually a movie that will come out of nowhere and completely wow us. This is a good summer, and that movie is DISTRICT 9, USA Today - With its clever faux documentary style, this is the most imaginative science-fiction movie to come along in years., The New Yorker - You don't feel bamboozled, fooled, or patronized by DISTRICT 9, as you did by most of the summer blockbusters. You feel winded, and shaken, and shamed., New York Times - In the midst of it all you almost take for granted the carefully rendered details of the setting, the tightness of the editing and the inventiveness of the special effects, Hollywood Reporter - A genuinely original science fiction film that grabs you immediately, not letting go until the final shot, Empire - It's a genuinely exciting and surprisingly affecting thriller that, thanks to Blomkamp's stylistic device of choice ù a faux-documentary, with plenty of Paul Greengrass-esque shakycam ù feels fresh and original, with the outlandish action rooted in a grimy reality., Washington Post - A sci-fi-fueled indictment of man's inhumanity to man -- and the non-human -- DISTRICT 9 is all horribly familiar, and transfixing.

    I've bought hundreds of books from goldstonebooksuk in just the last few weeks alone, because of the amazing discounts on the books for multiple-book purchases (the more books you buy, the higher the discount, all the way up to 50%!). The books have always lived up to the description, or better than described. All well-packed, with super-quick delivery. Exceptional support whenever I've contacted them. Awesome seller.

    Book was delivered - it took a bit longer than what was shown on the listing, but it was okay for international delivery (3 weeks). Condition of book was very good but there was a large fold in the cover. Note that the book was sent in a plastic bag so the corners got a bit rounded on its travels. That said, the rest of the book was in good condition. Overall cost of book and delivery was very good. Sellers communication also on point. Thank you.

Never fails of book losses, all unconditional shipping, secured mailings, provided tracking, speedy global shipping, good prices, well cared packages, and responsibility or immediate response to any inquiries, and hard work to inform me of the shipped books. Many thanks, Arabella

  • Great film.

    Superb film. Massively underrated. Masterstroke setting it in South Africa. Unique take on an alien invasion. It makes you empathize with the aliens predicament. They're aliens in our world. Alienated. Can't say enough good things about this film. Watch it. Brilliant.
