The best advice for anyone that is thinking about watching District 9 is to go into the film blind. While it’s been often said “knowing is only half the battle” (a G.I. Joe catchphrase nonetheless), the other side of the battle is, of course, not knowing. The more the audience knows about District 9 prior to watching the film, the less they’ll take away from the one of the better entertaining theatre experiences of 2009. So let’s stop while we are ahead and everyone can exit this review of said film to avoid any spoilers…

I would totally agree with that – especially for D9. There’s nothing worse than thinking you know all about something without experiencing it; particularly if anyone has the obtuseness to detract D9 without seeing it…. Hopefully people will be able to appreciate it “blindly” for a long time, as everyone adjusts to the reaction/success! See my review [AFTER you see the movie] at: http://www.youtube.com/gabndad, and share my enthusiasm!

District 9 was genuinely original and all around high quality as far as cinematography goes; that new no name lead actor did a great job
