Where does the Fredstrom start with this movie? An alien space craft has run out of fuel and stands hovering over Johannesburg, South Africa. The world has created the MNU to extract and contain these new visitors, called Prawns. This documentary style movie tells the story of a man named Wikus van der Merwe, who is put in charge of the MNU. He has been appointed to evict the Prawns to another district further out of town. While serving eviction notices, Wikus encounters and alien secret that would dramatically change not only his fate, but the Prawns as well. The Fredstrom doesn't want to give away too much, but take the plots of Independence Day, IronMan, Alien and Men in Black, put them in a blender-volia!
District 9 was a bit slow, a whole lot of weird, and just straight different. If this ever really happened, District 9 would describe what humans would actually do with alien visitors, sad but true. The Fredstrom may have missed the genius with this movie but just wasn't as impressed as he would have like to have been. District 9 earns a very flexible 5 Picasso's. See it for yourself.
