D-9 Image with my caption
One movie hitting soon and was under the radar is Neill Blomkamp, and his new film District-9 or D-9 for short.
It’s a fake Docudrama played out as if this was a real life thing.
The plot appears to be space aliens land on earth to seek refuge. And they are sent to a determent camp and live in slum like conditions in Africa.
But what I think is really going on is this movie is a political piece and a mask instead of talking about a real topic and what they really mean.
That of African-Americans and apartheid.
I must admit while D-9 looks well made, I have absolutely zero interest in seeing this.
If you want to talk a political topic like apartheid, then let’s talk about and discuss it from all sides. Let’s be real, and be honest. There is no need to cover-up the situation with a political mask like this.
I thought in the 40′s era or so with movies like The Day the Earth Stood Still, that movies which really were disguised political statements happened. It appears it’s still going on in Hollywood. This also is a very ham fisted way of making the movie, it’s not subtle at all. The aliens also do not even look cool in terms of how they were designed.
I guess in this day and age, I appreciate movies without political topics in disguise like this. You want to talk about apartheid for example, fine lets talk about it and why not make a real documentary.
You want to make a fake docudrama with aliens used to disguise what you really want to talk about. Go ahead, but I and I think many others won’t be seeing this film.
And I qualify that last statement because looking at the trailers, I saw it and said okay it’s a film. But it stirred no emotion of saying, okay this I got to see in the theater. This is what I’d enjoy watching. It gave me no compelling reason to want to see this movie.

Thanks and much appreciated.
I made this blog to provide substance and my real comic book thoughts as a fan of the medium. Sometimes though that brings a delay in posts. Rather then just posting mindless filler material.
