Oh my god, yes.
I was so impressed, I can't even explain it. EVERYTHING was good. The effects were absolutely fantastic in a completely non "Hi I'm Micheal Bay and I have money" sort of way. Movie of the fucking year.
My only issue, not so much a complaint as sheer curiosity is the lightning gun. They really liked showing us the effect it had on people.
They really liked to showcase the lightning gun.
Spoilers
When Christopher and the main character Wikus (Christopher is the Alien) storm the MNU facility to get the cylinder, the body that Christopher examines is his friend that the MNU mercenary shot.
The last MNU merc probably gets the most appropriate and satisfying death of the movie : Just as he's about to shoot an exhuasted Wikus, The Aliens surround him. He shoots two of them then gets his head crushed. They tear him apart and eat him.
Go see District 9. Right fucking now.
A Man is killed by an airborne pig.
