An absolute brilliant gem.
It has minor flaws (***SPOILER*** the POV shaky-cam beginning and end was slightly nauseating, plus some effects looked cheap like the ghosting outlines of the aliens) otherwise its conceptually wonderful, and executed damn-near flawlessly. Blomkamp is a shining new example of prodigial potential...it remains to be seen if he does justice to his own abilities in his career now.
I would love them to turn this into a franchise, if they can. If the execution will be anywhere near this original, I ll be pumped in anticipation.
One of the best sci-fi...scratch that...best movies of recent times. Topper of 2009 so far, without doubt.
Saw it yesterday in the theaters, as well. I urge everyone to see it in theaters if they get the chance, it's an absoultely fantastic theater experience.
