CA2OR Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 So I just got District 9 and I think it was very under rated....I mean, I heard very little in the way of Hype which I think makes it a better movie. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MedRed Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I heard a lot about this movie. and It had great reviews. I didn't read any of the reviews... just the scores. I had several friends that told me to go see it. Unlike you CA2OR, I thought the movie was overhyped and wasn't as good as the scores said it would be. It was worth the watch... but I don't know how 50 billion f bombs can be called acting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedRed Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Ha ha ha I think I can find it ;-) I know a few website that posted theater's movies he he he he don't be so cheap! your computer monitor isn't going to give you the sound nor visual quality of going to the theater and being immersed in movie.

CA2OR Posted August 29, 2009 Author Share Posted August 29, 2009 Last 5 movies I went and saw in the theater sucked....so until I get con'd into another one I will continue to get them this way. Haven't been to a movie theater in over a year now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedRed Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 horrible! I've seen some crappy movies in the theater (talking to you hp and the half blood prince), But some movies are meant for the theater. I have a 52" top of the line samsung LCD... and it pales in comparison to seeing transformers on the imax screen in bridgeport... or seeing most movies in a nice, stadium seating theater. Benny, if your gf is falling asleep, you're doing it wrong (laugh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted August 29, 2009 Author Share Posted August 29, 2009 or right...depending on how you look at it. I will agree, no TV matches seeing something like transformers on the big screen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePremiumAquarium Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I don't know. I defiantely enjoy movies in the theater. Especially with a nice stadium seating setup and IMAX screen. I really do enjoy sitting on my couch and watching movies on my 106" widescreen though. The surround sound is almost as good though I can't really crank it because of the apartment neighbors. I usually go to the movies once a week and we have a theater pub here in South Salem; one of my favorite thing to do. Great food, great beer, and good movies in an old, nostalgic theater make for good times. District 9 gets some mixed reviews from me. Overall I liked the movie and can see how some would say that it is over rated and how some would think it was under rated. It definately is worth seeing but there is a lot of searing and a bunch of gore that some might find offensive or untasteful. Not a family movie unless your family is composed of people that can handle a good R rated movie. Interesting concept and not bad for a 1st time director.

CA2OR Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 I agree...I was just referring to the lack of commercials and hype surrounding it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegotjs Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I saw it on the big screen so I will tell you that i was entertained the whole movie but was a lot disappointed with how it ended. Loved how they kinda went with a documenty style .Rating 3.1/2 out of 5 stars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 I think that's fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
