Un entretenido ejercicio de ciencia ficción que es también toda una alegoría sobre la condición racista y discriminadora del hombre.

Reviews for District 9
Um presente inesperado para todos os fãs de uma boa e inteligente ficção-científica.
10/16/09
Le film de Neill Blomkamp brille de par son audace et la pertinence de son propos.
10/12/09
We've seen most of the film's elements before ... but all these ideas have never been assembled in exactly this manner before, let alone with Blomkamp's wit and style.
09/20/09
Works as political commentary, blood-splattering action flick and sneaky-funny comedy.
09/10/09
We'll know if District 9 has become an instant cult classic if this Halloween, children start dressing up as prawns.
09/10/09
Peter Jackson let Neil Blomkamp make his Bad Taste but with all of Jackson's expensive toys.
09/09/09
Original in concept and thoroughly intense, this alien encampment sci-fi thriller quickly devolves into a gritty slaughter chase that never bores but rarely surprises.
09/08/09
District 9 is a ferocious fable. Potent and provocative, it is an allegory for our time. It is bursting with contemporary themes -- oppression, greed, power, propaganda, and the conflict of disparate cultures.
09/08/09
You don’t feel bamboozled, fooled, or patronized by District 9, as you did by most of the summer blockbusters. You feel winded, shaken, and shamed.
09/07/09
Top CriticThe film’s tone moves easily from the comic to the cruel, and the alien creatures look authentic. From the start, the film promises a fresh and thoughtful slice of Swiftian sci-fi.
09/07/09
District 9 ends on a touching scene that evokes Ridley Scott's Blade Runner, but it's an honest film that repays its debts.
09/07/09
You have to go back to 1979 and the premiere of Alien to find a sci-fi ET movie as thrilling and innovative as director Neill Blomkamp's District 9. His satirical fable on racism delivers all the toys and ploys for the fanboys while teasing and teaching t
09/05/09
Perhaps we’re witnessing a new dawn for politically engaged sci-fi and horror, with Blomkamp as a latter-day George Romero. Either way, this is a stunningly impressive debut.
09/04/09
Intriguing, inventive and energetic, Blomkamp's feature debut is a thoroughly tasty prawn cocktail.
09/04/09
A thundering blitzkrieg of seat-rattling entertainment with a sociopolitical message; a cerebral sci-fi and apartheid allegory that is as heavily armed with provocative ideas as it is with armour-piercing, tank-splattering torpedoes.
09/04/09
An entertaining, technically superb if faintly unsatisfying futuristic thriller.
09/04/09
District 9 is that modern rarity: an adventure thriller that’s even better than its advertising campaign.
09/04/09
Fiendishly plotted and with awesomely kinetic (and outrageously bloody) action scenes, Blomkamp announces himself in a major way, without letting the third act crescendo lose focus in a blur of noise.
09/04/09
District 9 is 2009's second hugely impressive sci-fi film after Moon. Both put fresh spins on well-explored concepts.
