This movie came out in 2009. It was
directed by Neill Blomkamp. The starring actor is Sharlto Copley. This movie’s genre
is science fiction. This story is affected by the policy of apartheid in South Africa.
This movie’s Japanese title is (第9地区).
In 1982, aliens came to Africa. They began
to live as refugees in district 9, because their spaceship was breaking. But, the people disliked them and people strongly discriminated against them. People began to call
them “prawns”. 28 years later, the people made a plan to let them emigrate. Vikas (Sharlto
Copley) negotiated to aliens for the plan. But then he was injected with a mystery liquid.
Thereafter, accidents happened to his body one after another and he was chased by
people.
Good point
This story is very interesting, exiting and
easy to understand. This movie’s idea is very interesting. For example, aliens like cat food,
people call aliens “prawn”, aliens can speak English, and so on. This movie makes us think about racial discrimination.
Bad point
This movie has some shocking scenes. I don’t
recommend it for children or when you are eating a meal. This movie’s title is very sober, and the aliens design is bad.
Summary
I enjoyed and liked this movie very much,
but when you are eating a meal, I don’t recommend watching this movie.
