Gold Class in District 9

Hello to those who follow this blog! Apologies for the lack of posts recently. It is because I am travelling in New Zealand.
Quick run down on some films I have seen recently:

PRICELESS: French comedy and it is completely 'priceless' its a must watch even to those who dont like subtitles. The French really know how to do their comedies!

MY BEST FRIENDS GIRL: Really good fun, up to the really random ending. Didnt end right. It had opportunities to end and then it started up on another strand of a possibly plot that didnt come to a full stop. Still worth a watch just for the amount of giggles.

THE PURPOSAL: hhhhhhmmmmmm I love Sandra Bullock but Im not too sure of her pairing with Ryan Reynolds (regardless of how hot he is).

17 AGAIN: I know he is younger than me but Zac Efron is ccccuuuuuuute! Plus I think he is a great actor, dancer, singer. I think hes the new John Travolta. Nice plot. Funny characters. Nice little film.

Now DISTRICT 9! I watched this tonight in Auckland. Australia and New Zealand have this cinema experience called 'Gold Class' and it where you have your own private waiting area to await the start of the film. You can choose froom a menu of high quality food to be brought to your chair at any point in the film. They serve alcohol. The chairs are wide, plush and RECLINE! There is only about 24 seats in the actual cinema. Pure luxury!

DISTRICT 9 is sort of like a mock documentary with live action story lines. Its about Johannesburg in South Africa and 20 years ago a alien mother ship hovers over the city and the aliens are put into slums. Now I really cant tell you more about it because it would spoil the film.

Its a brilliant film. The main protagonist goes through stages when you pity, dislike and like him. I think its a reflection on human nature and how flippant we can be. Well worth a watch.
